LANCOM 1930EF-5G — SD-WAN Gateway with Integrated 5G
5G SA/NSA · 4×4 MIMO6× GbE · SFP/TP combo25 VPN tunnels19" 1U
The LANCOM 1930EF-5G is a 19-inch 1U SD-WAN gateway with an integrated 5G modem, six Gigabit Ethernet ports (one an SFP/TP combo) and 25 IPsec/WireGuard VPN tunnels out of the box, built for branch offices that want fibre or Ethernet internet plus 5G as primary or backup line. Dual physical SIM slots and an eSIM give carrier flexibility, and the four included antennas connect via SMA for 4×4 MIMO.
It also includes a Voice Call Manager and session border controller for SIP telephony, a stateful firewall with IPS, and zero-touch SD-WAN management via the LANCOM Management Cloud (licence sold separately). Made in Germany; LANCOM is now part of Rohde & Schwarz Networks and Cybersecurity.
Before you order: There is no built-in DSL modem and no Wi-Fi. For a fibre line you need an SFP module that matches your operator (GPON/AON etc., not included) or the operator’s ONT on an Ethernet WAN port. LANCOM supports only its own SFP modules.
What's in the Box
- 1× LANCOM 1930EF-5G (EU)
- IEC power cord (internal power supply)
- 3 m Ethernet cable
- 2× 19" rack mounting brackets
- 4× 5G/LTE antennas (SMA)
- Manual and quick installation guide
What It Means in Practice
- Default port layout: WAN1 = SFP/TP combo, WAN2 = Gigabit Ethernet for an external modem, ETH1–4 = LAN; up to 3 ports can be WAN and every port is configurable.
- 5G works standalone (SA) and non-standalone (NSA); SIMs are Mini-SIM (2FF) natively, Micro/Nano via adapter; only one eSIM profile can be active at a time.
- For better 5G reception you can replace the desk antennas with an outdoor antenna (AirLancer O-360Q-5G, optional).
- 25 VPN tunnels are included; options raise this to 50 or 100.
- SD-WAN, Auto-VPN and application routing require a LANCOM Management Cloud licence.
What Will Not Work
- Wi-Fi clients — there is no wireless access point built in.
- A DSL line directly (no internal DSL modem — use an external modem).
- 2G/GSM networks.
- Third-party SFP modules (only LANCOM SFPs are supported); no SFP module is included.
- ISDN or analogue telephone lines/phones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I connect my fibre line directly?
Yes, with a LANCOM SFP module that matches your provider (e.g. GPON or AON) in the combo port, or by connecting the provider’s ONT/router to an Ethernet WAN port. Tell us your provider and we will advise.
Do I need the Management Cloud?
No — the router works standalone with LANconfig/web UI. The Management Cloud licence adds SD-WAN orchestration, Auto-VPN and zero-touch rollout.
Is 5G only for backup?
No. It can run as primary line, backup, or be load-balanced with fixed WAN connections.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
The 1930EF family is the right step up when a branch needs proper multi-WAN, site-to-site VPN and SIP telephony in one rack unit. Plan the WAN side first: SFP type for fibre, external modem for DSL, and SIM/antenna placement for 5G. See our
firewalls if you need deeper UTM security.
✓ Buy it if you need a rack-mount business router with multiple WANs, VPN and SIP telephony plus integrated 5G.
✕ Skip it if you need built-in Wi-Fi or a built-in DSL modem.
→ Also consider the LANCOM 1930EF without 5G if you have no mobile requirement.
