Teltonika RUTX10 Professional Ethernet Router (4 x GB Ethernet), WiFi and Bluetooth

Teltonika RUTX10 industrial Ethernet router with Bluetooth

The Teltonika RUTX10 is a non-cellular industrial router with four Gigabit Ethernet ports, dual-band Wi-Fi 5 and built-in Bluetooth Low Energy. It runs the full RutOS firmware, so you get VPN, firewall and Teltonika RMS management in a rugged aluminium enclosure. What sets it apart is the Bluetooth radio. The RUTX10 gathers data from BLE sensors and beacons and forwards it over your wired or Wi-Fi connection, which makes it a sensor hub for sites that already have fixed backhaul and do not need a mobile modem.

Key features

• Built-in Bluetooth LE: a dedicated BLE radio with its own RP-SMA antenna connector, so you can fit a higher-gain antenna where a site needs more range.
• Four Gigabit Ethernet ports: one WAN, configurable as LAN, plus three LAN, with up to 128 port and tag-based VLANs.
• Dual-band Wi-Fi 5: 802.11ac Wave-2 with MU-MIMO, up to 867 Mbps, in access point or station mode.
• No modem, no SIM: the RUTX10 backhauls over wired or Wi-Fi, so you do not pay for cellular you will not use.
• RutOS software: the same operating system as the cellular RUTX routers, with OpenVPN, IPsec, GRE, PPTP, L2TP and DMVPN.
• USB 2.0 port: for external storage, USB-to-serial adapters and other devices.
• Digital I/O: one input and one output on the power connector for basic monitoring and control.
• Flexible power: 9 to 50 V DC with reverse polarity and surge protection, plus passive PoE over the LAN port.
• Industrial build: aluminium housing, DIN rail mounting, -40 to +75 degrees C, IP30.
• Teltonika RMS: remote configuration, monitoring and firmware updates across a fleet.

What is the RUTX10 used for?

Bluetooth sensor gathering on wired sites

Where a site already has fibre or a fixed line, the RUTX10 collects readings from BLE sensors and beacons and pushes them to your platform over Ethernet or Wi-Fi. A single router handles up to 200 sensors, covering temperature, humidity, movement and open or close events. Data goes to any MQTT broker or HTTP endpoint through the RutOS Data to Server feature, so you are not tied to one cloud.

Warehouse and yard asset tracking

Fix a RUTX10 at points across a warehouse or depot that has wired backhaul, attach BLE beacons to pallets, cages and forklifts, and track them without dedicated location hardware. Because beacons broadcast rather than pair, each router reports the beacons it can hear, which supports basic zone-based positioning across a floor.

Secure edge router for wired offices and back-of-house

The RUTX10 works as a compact edge router for a shop back office, a small site or a plant room. It terminates site-to-site VPN tunnels, segments traffic with VLANs, and reports into Teltonika RMS alongside your cellular routers, so wired and mobile sites sit in one management view.

Managed Wi-Fi with wired and Wi-Fi failover

Run the RUTX10 as an access point and use its wired WAN as primary with Wi-Fi WAN as backup, or the reverse. RutOS handles the failover between them once configured, which keeps a wired site online when the main link drops.

USB and serial expansion node

The USB 2.0 port adds storage over Samba, USB-to-serial for legacy equipment, or an external drive for logging. This turns the RUTX10 into a small, RMS-managed gateway for equipment that speaks serial rather than Ethernet.

Pro tip

Treat the Bluetooth antenna as a first-class part of the install, not an afterthought. The RUTX10 has a separate RP-SMA connector for BLE, so if you are gathering sensor data across a large floor or from inside a metal cabinet, swap the bundled stub for a higher-gain Bluetooth antenna and mount it in clear space. In dense racking or metal enclosures, reliable BLE range drops to around 10 to 15 m, so antenna placement matters more than the open-field figures suggest. One more point to plan for: the RUTX10 has no modem, so if the site has no fixed line you will need a cellular router for backhaul, or one of the cellular Bluetooth models instead.

Frequently asked questions

Does the RUTX10 have a SIM slot or mobile connection?

No. The RUTX10 is a non-cellular router. It has no modem and no SIM slot, and it connects to the internet over Ethernet or Wi-Fi. If you need a mobile connection with Bluetooth, look at the cellular models below.

Which Teltonika routers have Bluetooth, and how does the RUTX10 compare?

Four Teltonika routers carry Bluetooth: the RUTX10, which is non-cellular, and the RUTX11, RUTX12 and RUTX14, which are cellular. Pick the RUTX10 when the site already has wired or Wi-Fi backhaul. Pick one of the cellular three when sensor data needs to leave over mobile.

How many Bluetooth sensors can the RUTX10 handle?

Teltonika quotes up to 200 sensors or beacons per router. Different sensor types can report at the same time, so temperature, humidity, movement and open or close events all reach the same router.

Do I need Teltonika RMS to use the sensors?

No. The RutOS Data to Server feature forwards sensor data to any MQTT broker or HTTP endpoint. Teltonika RMS makes fleet management easier and is worth having, but the sensor pipeline works without it.

Can I power the RUTX10 over PoE?

It supports passive PoE over the LAN port at 9 to 50 V DC. It is not compatible with active 802.3af, 802.3at or 802.3bt PoE. Connecting an active PoE switch or injector, which runs at 48 V, can damage the router, so use a matched passive PoE injector or the supplied power supply.
