CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
Introduction to your Router
The BEC MX-1200 is a high-performance, versatile, feature-rich platform for organizations that are
eager to deploy a reliable, high-performing, secure, and scalable wireless network. Retail, SMB,
Enterprise and other business can now accelerate deployments of applications such as business
continuity, Point-of-Sales, SD-WAN services and much more.
The MX-1200 supports immediate mobile network expansion via its modular interface and the MX-
100U LTE modem. The MX-100U is certified across all major carriers giving customers the ability to
select the best carrier for their given location. It integrates Category 6 LTE-A with carrier aggregation,
dual-SIM, multi-carrier auto selection and active GPS into an IP-50 hardened enclosure. Future
models will support a migration path to higher data rates and LTE Categories.
Vehicle Tracking System
MX-1200 is embedded with a GNSS receiver for GPS or GLONASS. To co-work with On-Board
Diagnostics(OBD) system, it eases the central control of geographically-dispersed fleets by
presenting individual vehicles' detailed information, including remaining fuel levels, rapid
accelerations, and locations.
Mobile and Fixed Broadband Services Ready
MX-1200 platform supports two (2) SIMs for carrier redundancy or seamless failover (with MX-100U)
between carrier networks and is equipped up to two (2) versatile Gigabit Ethernet LANs/WANs for
wireline connection such as Fiber(FTTH), Cable or DSL with speeds up to 1000Mbps. Using BEC
WAN Management in the Web GUI to manage and ensure uninterrupted Internet services by assigning
failover to specific WAN interfaces, setting up WAN load balance to smoother traffic to ensure no
drops on latency-sensitive application and data.
Maximized Wi-Fi Speed and Coverage
With the next wireless generation, 802.11ac, integrated in the MX-1200, the router delivers fast Wi-Fi
speeds of up to 1200Mbps. The MX-1200 supports a link rate up to 300Mbps in 2.4GHz frequency
range & 867Mbps in 5GHz range and is also backward
compatible with existing 802.11 a / b / g / n wireless equipment in the network. The Wireless Protected
Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) features enhance the level
of transmission security and access control over Wireless LAN. MX-1200 also supports the Wi-Fi
Protected Setup (WPS) standard for easy and secure establishment of a wireless home network. If
the user’s network requires wider coverage, the built-in Wireless Distribution System (WDS) repeater
function expands the wireless network without needing any external wires or cables.

Wi-Fi Hotspot with Captive Portal
MX-1200 offers Wi-Fi hotspot to share the Internet connection via mobile (3G/LTE) or a wired
connection, an existing FTTH, cable, DSL network or modem, with any wireless-enabled devices
which is completed separate from the private Wi-Fi network. The captive portal enables highly secure
connectivity with multiple authentication options and extensive controls for access and bandwidth
management. Customization options allow for operator logos, branding or advertisement placement.
IPv6 Supported
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed
IPv4. IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. The router is already supporting IPv6, you
can use it in IPv6 environment no need to change device. The dual-stack protocol implementation in
an operating system is a fundamental IPv4-to-IPv6 transition technology. It implements IPv4 and
IPv6 protocol stacks either independently or in a hybrid form. The hybrid form is commonly
implemented in modern operating systems supporting IPv6.
Quick Start Wizard
Support a WEB GUI page to install this device quickly. With this wizard, simple steps will get you
connected to the Internet immediately.
Firmware Upgradeable
Device can be upgraded to the latest firmware through the WEB based GUI.
