One ISP line goes down and your whole office goes quiet. The coffee machine is still running, but nobody can check email, process a sale or join the video call. You've been told to 'just add a backup' for months.
The Cradlepoint E100 plugs into that gap. Built-in 5G NR and Cat 19 LTE (or Cat 7 LTE) give you a cellular uplink that doesn't depend on the fibre in the wall. Five GbE Ethernet ports cover your switches, printers and POS terminals. Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) keeps laptops and tablets connected without a separate access point.
The firewall throughput sits at 850 Mbps with 20 concurrent VPN tunnels, so your branch stays locked to corporate applications even when the internet gets flaky. SD-WAN steering routes traffic by priority automatically.
NetCloud handles the management from wherever you are. Define policies, check status at a glance, pull reports and troubleshoot remotely. Zero-touch deployment means the box arrives pre-configured; an employee powers it up, finds the best cellular path, and the office is live. The included one-year NetCloud Essentials Plan covers cloud management, online training, live support and all firmware updates.
Optional battery backup keeps the router running through a short power dip. Operates from 0 °C to 40 °C in an industrial plastic housing. No rack mount needed – it sits on a shelf or desk.
