Information Technology

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R980 is a ruggedized, secure appliance and router that broadens access to the increased speed and performance of 5G to support advanced applications and critical communications. Designed for the 5G future, it is 5G network slicing ready with the deployment flexibility of eSIMs which allow carrier switching without changing physical SIMs. (eSIM will be functional with future NetCloud releases.) It is a ruggedized 5G networking platform able to withstand wide temperature extremes, harsh environments, and hazardous locations while delivering enterprise-class standards of reliability, scalability, comprehensive management, and security. The R980 is available with either Mobile or Ruggedized IoT NetCloud service plans, providing features optimized for the needs of the differing deployments. The R980 also supports NetCloud Exchange and SASE services, which provide Zero Trust Network Access and cellular-optimized SD-WAN.

High-Performance Vehicle Connectivity

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R980 router with an Ericsson NetCloud Mobile service plan provides a ruggedized GNSS/GPS-enabled in-vehicle network solution. When coupled with the Advanced Mobile service plan, it provides threat management, web filtering, application visibility, analytics, and advanced GNSS/GPS functionality such as location tracking and cellular coverage maps. The R980 with SD-WAN provides resilient in-vehicle connections by optimizing traffic across LTE, 5G, 5G stand-alone network slices, satellite, and Wi-Fi as WAN.

Ruggedized IoT Solution

When combined with an Ericsson NetCloud Ruggedized IoT service plan, the R980 provides a versatile, ruggedized 5G router solution for connecting and protecting IoT devices at scale. It can be deployed in a wide range of environmentally harsh IoT use cases such as oil and gas, utility, and smart city infrastructure, in addition to next-gen kiosks, and video surveillance, deployments. The ruggedized design and CBRS band support make it ideal for private networks. In addition, the solution is highly extensible with APIs, SDKs, and integrations into IoT platforms, and the generous memory supports onboard edge containers.

Designed for branches that require the higher performance of 5G and the flexibility of wireless, the Ericsson Cradlepoint W1850 5G wideband adapter ushers in the next generation of Wireless WAN networking. The W-Series is designed to accommodate the diverse spectrums, multiple generations, and breadth of new technologies introduced in 5G while delivering enterprise-class standards of scalability, comprehensive management, and security.

High Performance Wideband

The W1850 5G adapters are purpose-built for deployment in the high-performance low-, mid-band 5G spectrum. To address the tradeoff of lower propagation in the mid-band spectrum, Ericsson designed the W-Series adapter to be placed separately from the router for optimal signal reception. The stylized W1850 5G adapter is designated for optimal indoor placement.

Designed for Enterprise-Class Business

While the performance of 5G is top of mind, the W-Series was also designed with enterprise-class standards for high scalability, comprehensive management, and security. Representing the latest available 5G standards which are a collection of spectrum, technologies, and network infrastructure enhancements, the Ericsson 5G edge networking service and endpoints accommodate the diverse deployments of an organization with hundreds or even tens of thousands of sites.

Carrier-Class Connectivity

Although each network operator conforms to 3GPP standards, they implement those standards differently to gain optimal efficiency and performance from their network. Additionally, software from modem manufacturers is designed to serve multiple operators within broad markets. The W-Series uses a customized software-defined modem, pre-programmed endpoints, and multilevel integrity testing to predict vulnerable connections and deliver carrier-class connectivity.

5G Spectrum Solutions

The W-Series portfolio supports all spectrum layers ensuring that organizations have the right solution for every location. The W1850 5G adapters support low- and mid-band layers.

Support for a Full Range of Cellular Technologies

Ericsson 5G solutions support all cellular generations, from 4G LTE to Gigabit-Class LTE to 5G - with the ability to gracefully transition tens of thousands of sites between generations as technology becomes available in individual locations.

Complete Lifecycle Management

Ericsson 5G solutions help enterprises minimize complexity from installation to troubleshooting with tools and features such as the mobile installation application, the captive modem feature, 5G tools demonstrate 5G service value, and Out-of-Band Management.

Intelligent Hybrid WAN Connectivity

Ericsson 5G solutions deliver effortless wireless endpoint management in a "wired-first SD-WAN" environment and provides all-in-one capabilities (routing, embedded wireless, and foundational SD-WAN) in a "wireless-first SD-WAN" deployment.

The Ericsson Cradlepoint S400 is a cloud managed, semi-ruggedized secure appliance and router for IoT networks. Offering connectivity through LTE plus wired and Wi-Fi options, the S400 is designed for light industrial, digital signage, and kiosk use cases. The S400 includes an Ericsson NetCloud Service Plan Secure IoT license, which provides management at scale, group policies, configurations and troubleshooting, plus connect and go zero trust security.

Semi-Ruggedized IoT Solution

When coupled with the Ericsson NetCloud Secure IoT service plan, the S400 provides a compact, semi-ruggedized Cat 6 4G LTE router and security solution for connecting IoT devices at scale. With an IP30-rated housing built to withstand vibration and temperature extremes and designed for mounting on DIN rails, the S400 is ideal for use in light industrial applications such as SCADA, remote monitoring, smart city intelligent traffic control or in applications such as surveillance cameras, digital signs, and control sensors. With an extensive list of features, it can be confidently deployed in the field, in buildings, or in embedded systems to deliver complete visibility, security, and control of connected devices anywhere.

Cloud-Managed IoT Solution - with Secure Connect Included

For organizations requiring robust connectivity for IoT networks - with installed networking endpoints numbering from a handful to many thousands - Ericsson's NetCloud Secure Services for IoT with the S400 provides a comprehensive cloud managed network solution with NetCloud SASE Secure Connect included. With this zero-trust security, any IoT device connected to the S400 is immediately hidden from public scans and from devices connected to other routers. Access policies are easily defined so IoT devices communicate only with their authorized resources on a least-privilege basis. Ericsson's NetCloud-managed IoT endpoints can be rapidly deployed and easily scaled to accommodate the diverse requirements of organizations.
