01 / The platform comes first
A case for your network.
And your next one.
Your case should have a useful life beyond the radio you install first.
BYOND is designed to work with different cellular radios in its class. Rather than building the entire solution around one fixed router model, Digital Navigator adapts the mounting, power, connections, and antenna arrangement to the selected equipment.
That gives you a practical path to reuse and update the platform—whether you change radio brands, need different antennas, or want a new configuration for a different job.
Configure the system.
Match the enclosure integration, power, antenna connections, and accessible ports to the way you will use it.
Keep a path forward.
Plan for radio replacements, antenna changes, and future reconfiguration instead of treating the first build as the last.

02 / Real installations
Five radios.
One BYOND approach.
These are examples of radios installed in BYOND configurations. They show the platform’s flexibility, rather than five separate case designs locked to five individual devices.
Actual DigiNav installation. Equipment shown varies by configuration.
Configuration 01 / Compact radio. Flexible platform.
Semtech AirLink XR60
Compact integrationField connectivityAirLink ecosystem
An XR60 installation brings Semtech’s compact cellular router into the BYOND case platform. A useful starting point for teams that want a portable system built around the AirLink ecosystem.

Configuration 02 / Your mobile network, ready to travel.
Ericsson Cradlepoint R1900
Mobile networkingTemporary sitesCradlepoint ecosystem
Bring an R1900-based network to a temporary office, event, or field deployment. BYOND packages the radio, antenna connections, and power integration into a portable system while keeping a path open for later changes.

Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G
Peplink ecosystemEvents + mediaMobile workspace
Prefer the Peplink ecosystem? This BYOND configuration makes the MAX BR1 Pro 5G a portable networking solution for events, remote work, and mobile operations. Integration can be tailored to the connections your team needs.

Configuration 05 / Practical connectivity. Sensible value.
ATEL RE600
Value-focusedSemi-rugged configurationWork + everyday use
The RE600 configuration takes a value-focused approach to portable cellular internet. It pairs an ATEL radio with a semi-rugged case configuration for customers who want the protection and features their application actually calls for.
Discuss this configuration →Have a different radio in mind? Ask us about it. Compatibility is confirmed against the device’s dimensions, mounting, power, cooling, connectors, and antenna requirements. Features, network performance, and management services depend on the selected radio and configuration.
03 / Built to evolve
Change the equipment.
Keep the possibilities.
Start with the network you need now. Revisit the radio, antennas, or integration as your work changes.
Move to a different device.
A future router replacement can be evaluated for the same BYOND platform. Mounting, cabling, and power integration can be revised to suit the new hardware.
Match the next deployment.
Antenna arrangements can change over time to suit supported bands, connector requirements, placement, and the coverage needs of a new application.
Adapt the way you connect.
Revisit power arrangements, cable routing, and network access as the case moves between applications or your team’s operating needs grow.
Radio agnostic means adaptable, not a universal drop-in fit. Some upgrades require new mounting, antennas, power components, or enclosure work. DigiNav reviews the proposed change before confirming the upgrade path.
04 / Two case families. A shared philosophy.
BYOND and 5GIRL.
Your choice of radio.
Digital Navigator makes two case configurations: the BYOND series and the 5GIRL series. Both are radio agnostic, with configuration and upgrade options evaluated for the selected hardware.

06 / Before we build
A few useful answers.
Does BYOND work with any cellular router?
BYOND is designed to accommodate a range of radios in its class. We confirm each model’s physical fit, power needs, mounting, cooling, and antenna connections before agreeing on a configuration. The five installations above are examples, not the limit of the platform.
Can I change the radio brand later?
That flexibility is part of the BYOND approach. A different radio can be evaluated for your existing case. The change may require revised mounting, cabling, power components, or antennas.
Can the antennas be upgraded?
Yes. Antenna changes can be evaluated as part of a new build or a later reconfiguration. The appropriate choice depends on the radio, supported frequencies, connections, and how you plan to deploy the case.
Are all the configurations equally rugged?
No. Protection depends on the selected enclosure, radio, connections, and final build. The ATEL RE600 example is a semi-rugged configuration. We match the build to the application rather than assuming every customer needs the same protection level.
Can I choose the color and add my own logo?
Yes. BYOND cases are available in 11 colors, and custom logo branding is available. Share your preferred color and logo with DigiNav so we can confirm the details for your build.
What should I send you to get started?
The radio make and model, how and where you will use it, required wired and wireless connections, power needs, any antenna preferences, your preferred case color, and your custom logo if you would like branding. If you are updating an existing case, include photos and its current configuration.
