Peplink is a large and respected company in the high-end mobile networking space, particularly well known for providing cellular connectivity for everything from fleets of vehicles to cruise ships to dispersed corporate offices.
While Peplink's Pepwave cellular integrated routers are not specifically designed with individual mobile users in mind, Peplink does offer solid and well-supported products that many advanced users have grown to rely on.
The UBR series of routers is a lower-end line from Peplink. UBR stands for 'Unbreakable' - a term that is part of Peplink's marketing tagline. This series has typically focused on lower-end components for entry-level devices, but they still have all the core features that Peplink routers offer and can provide good value for those looking for Peplink's features but don't need the most advanced hardware.
For an overview of the full Peplink product line (and a look at some of the software features in common across different devices), see our gear center entry:
