You need more than a basic 5G stick. You've got a branch that runs POS, video, cloud apps — and you need it to hold up when the carrier's mid-band is congested. The W2005 does dual connectivity across 5G Low and Mid-Band plus Cat 20 LTE, so it rides whichever spectrum has headroom. Two 2.5 GbE ports (LAN/WAN switchable) feed your local network at 2.0 Gbps throughput in any mode — passthrough, NAT, or captive modem. Single-band 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi is built in for quick local access. PoE powered, dual SIM, UL/cUL and CB Scheme certified. The 3-year NetCloud Advanced Plan gives you the deeper management layer when you've got multiple sites to watch. Mount it outside, run one cable in, done
