Digi International Announces Anterix Active Solution for Industrial Connectivity at the Edge in Utilities and Critical Infrastructure

Digi IX30-0EG4 has achieved the Anterix Active designation, providing full support for Anterix’s nationwide 900 MHz private LTE spectrum. This industrial IoT edge computing solution is specifically designed for hazardous and mission-critical applications on both public and private LTE networks. It is tailored for energy and utilities applications such as real-time monitoring and control, smart grid automation, demand response, renewable energy integration, DERMS, and SCADA systems. Fully integrated with Digi Remote Manager®, this solution’s capabilities improve security and scalability while ensuring speed, reliability and efficiency.

Digi IX30-0EG4 is a C1D2 and NEMA TS2-rated cellular router engineered to deliver secure, reliable connectivity for industrial assets. With support from Anterix, the large holder of licensed spectrum in the 900 MHz band (896-901/935-940 MHz) throughout the contiguous United States, plus Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico — Digi IX30-0EG4 helps utility operators unlock the full potential of private LTE networks. This low-band spectrum is ideally suited for wide-area coverage, deep penetration through obstacles, and consistent performance across vast and challenging terrains. Offering a powerful combination of coverage and capacity, it supports the always-on, secure communication channels required for grid resiliency, operational visibility, and long-term infrastructure modernization.

“The Anterix Active designation reinforces Digi’s commitment to helping critical infrastructure operators deploy private LTE networks that are secure, reliable, and built for the future,” said Vitaly Kurduban, Senior Product Manager at Digi International. “Digi IX30-0EG4 provides advanced edge intelligence, streamlined integration, and ruggedized performance that is purpose-built for evolving needs — accelerating the transformation of the energy and utilities sector.”

Powered by Digi Remote Manager (Digi RM) and Digi Accelerated Linux (DAL OS), Digi IX30-0EG4 enables centralized configuration, deployment, and monitoring of mission-critical infrastructure at scale. Digi RM serves as the command center of the network, allowing operators to manage tens of thousands of distributed devices from a single interface — whether on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone. Meanwhile, DAL OS delivers secure edge programmability and interoperability with legacy serial protocols, and support for MQTT Sparkplug B — allowing seamless integration into modern SCADA, telemetry, and automation systems.

With a high density of I/O ports, Digi IX30 reduces the need for external hardware, eliminating potential failure points while simplifying deployments. Its range of SKUs includes edge compute capabilities and support for public, private, and hybrid cellular networks, offering unmatched deployment flexibility.

“We are excited to see Digi International with the Digi IX30-0EG4 industrial router continue to add to the portfolio of devices as a member of the Anterix Active Ecosystem,” said Steve Ryan, Vice President, Ecosystem and Partnerships at Anterix. “With its proven reliability and rich feature set, Digi IX30 delivers a critical building block for utilities seeking secure, private LTE communications — particularly for applications that demand continuous uptime, edge control, and long-term adaptability.”

The Anterix 900 MHz spectrum is designed to meet the rigorous demands of utility broadband communications, offering dedicated performance, coverage, and security.

Key Features of Digi IX30 with Anterix Support:

  • Anterix Active designation — Full support for 900 MHz band private LTE networks
  • Industrial-grade ruggedness — C1D2, NEMA TS2, wide temperature range, and DIN-rail mountable
  • Edge intelligence and I/O — High port density, analog/digital I/O, GNSS, dual Ethernet
