Typical set-ups
A bank of chargers in a car park
One router connects several chargers to the back office over Ethernet, often with a PoE or Ethernet switch. A multi-network SIM avoids depending on one network's coverage in the car park.
Typical kit: Teltonika RUT951 or RUT956, with a network switch and a multi-network data SIM.
Underground or multi-storey car parks
Signal is poor below ground. Put the router or antenna where the signal is and run Ethernet down to the chargers.
Typical kit: An outdoor Teltonika OTD140 at street level, or a router with an external antenna.
Things to check before you buy
- Which chargers support Ethernet and which need their own SIM.
- Signal in the car park, especially underground.
- Remote management, as chargers are spread across many sites.
We also explain Teltonika's own EV chargers.
From Teltonika
Teltonika publishes case studies showing its routers in real projects. See: cellular routers for EV charging stations, outdoor router for an underground EV charging station. Teltonika's documentation wiki covers set-up for every router we sell.

Questions
Do EV chargers need a fixed IP?
Most OCPP chargers connect out to the back office, so a dynamic IP SIM is fine. A fixed IP is only needed if something must connect in to the charger directly.
Can I connect several chargers to one router?
Yes. Chargers with Ethernet can share one router through a switch, which is usually simpler and cheaper than a SIM in every charger.
