PP846 3BSE042238R1 Moxa, a leader in industrial communications and networking, has introduced its flagship OnCell G432-LTE4, further enriching the OnCell lineup of next-generation secure cellular routers. This advanced secure cellular router comes with new IEC 62443-4-2 compliant security software that not only significantly improves router performance, but also speeds up vulnerability remediation. In addition, the new products comply with multiple global wireless standards to establish secure communications in a variety of industrial applications.
According to Trend Micro’s Industrial Cybersecurity Report 2022 [1], 89% of companies in the global manufacturing, power, and oil and gas industries have experienced cyber attacks. The oil and gas industry suffered the most economic losses, with an average loss of about $2.8 million per affected company. These painful lessons demonstrate that it is imperative for businesses to adopt effective cybersecurity measures and protocols to protect critical infrastructure and avoid financial losses. The 2021 ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline, for example, was the worst attack on U.S. oil and gas infrastructure and the tip of the iceberg of rampant cybersecurity attacks at the time. This typical case demonstrates the need for strong cyber security protection in the OT environment to prevent cyber attacks from disrupting critical operational activities.
Li Peng, Head of Industrial Network Security at Moxa, said: “Moxa is committed to creating one-stop network solutions with superior security features for our customers. Among them, the OnCell G4300 series secure cellular router adopts a strong design and is certified by industry standards, which is a strong guarantee for the continuous normal operation of customers’ critical systems. These devices are the first line of defense to protect industrial iot applications against cyber threats.”

The new OnCell G432-LTE4 secure cellular router offers many advantages: MXsecurity software provides centralized security management and network management capabilities, and supports remote configuration and monitoring; Real-time alerts and notifications enable businesses to quickly identify and troubleshoot faults. It complies with IEC 62443-4-2 standards, and has advanced functions such as secure startup, virtual private network (VPN), and network address translation (NAT), which can effectively intercept network threats and protect data and network security.
In addition, the OnCell G432-LTE4 has built-in WAN redundancy and GuaranLink technology to enable quick connection recovery, reduce downtime and minimize operational disruptions.
The OnCell G432-LTE4 delivers industrial-grade reliability, robust hardware for hazardous environments, and CCCEx, IECEx, ATEX, and Class 1 Division 2 certifications. The router supports wide temperature operation from -30°C to 70°C, is stable and reliable in harsh environments, and has EN50121-4, NEMA TS2 and E-mark E1 certifications for vertical applications.
Advanced network security features based on IEC 62443-4-2 standard ensure uninterrupted network connection and comprehensive data protection
The OnCell G432-LTE4 secure cellular router supports GuaranLink technology to ensure stable and reliable cellular connections. Once the network connection is interrupted, the router automatically restores the connection, preventing the network from crashing completely.
The new router also has WAN redundancy, which supports WAN connectivity and can detect WAN connection outages. When the Ethernet interface fails, the router automatically switches to the cellular interface, and switches back to the Ethernet interface when the Ethernet connection recovers.
In addition, the OnCell G432-LTE4 Secure Cellular router has a built-in secure boot feature, a security mechanism that ensures that edge computers can only be booted by verified and authorized boot programs and operating systems. With these three features, the product can block most cybersecurity threats in all directions. However, the OnCell G432-LTE4 secure cellular router will continue to update its security features and always stand at the forefront of the industry to cope with an endless stream of cyber attacks.
