Same problem as the 3-year unit, but you want the subscription to outlast your current project cycle without a renewal call in year three. The S400 with the 5-year NetCloud Essentials bundle does exactly that. Semi-rugged Cat 6 LTE modem, dual SIM for carrier failover, Wi-Fi 5 for local devices, and zero-trust security handled for you through Ericsson NetCloud Manager. Five years of connectivity and management without thinking about it. AC adapter and antennas are in the box. Plug in, configure policies in the cloud, done
