Edge Connected Router
Orbit MCR
Reliable, Rugged, Wireless Router
GE’s MDS Orbit ECR (Edge-Connect Router) is an ultra reliable rugged wireless router based on the MDS Orbit platform. It enables operators to extend secure and reliable 2G/3G/4G LTE cellular connectivity to critical applications while minimizing network downtime and improving application availability.
KEK teamed up with GE to revitalize the appearance of the MDS product line, creating a slick and robust aesthetic.
Graphics Specification
Our teams, including graphic design, contributed to the final design of the MDS Orbit ECR, providing graphic specifications and treatments to complement the overall product.
Engineering and Prototyping
Heat sinking was a key concern for the Orbit ECR. The KEK team used thermal analysis software to design and validate an enclosure that effectively absorbs heat from the electronic components. CNC machining was then used to create prototypes, ensuring the design was verified before production.
