CradlePoint R2105-5GB Wi-Fi 6 IEEE 802.11ax 2 SIM Cellular Modem/Wireless Router - TAA Compliant

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R2100 5G ruggedized router is designed for vehicle and IoT deployments. This high-bandwidth, exterior-mounted solution provides mass transit, public safety, and other organizations with the latest cellular performance in a uniquely flexible and simplified form factor.

5G Ruggedized Router for High-Performance Vehicle and IoT Connectivity

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R2100 5G ruggedized router is available with the Ericsson NetCloud Performance Mobile Service plan or the Ericsson NetCloud Ruggedized IoT Service plan. Designed to be mounted on the roof of a vehicle or attached to IoT cabinet enclosures, the R2100 integrates the modem, antennas, and router into a single aerodynamic, ruggedized casing allowing for simplified deployment. The R2100 is sold with or without Wi-Fi 6 and can be deployed as a self-contained router or to supplement an existing router as a 5G adapter.

High Performance Captive Modem

Customers can add 5G to a current installation by deploying the R2100 as a captive modem with supported Ericsson Cradlepoint controlling routers. This allows them both to be managed in Ericsson NetCloud Manager as a single entity. The Ericsson NetCloud management system treats the R2100 as an internal modem, eliminating the need for a separate license. Similarly, for select controlling routers, the R2100 can serve as an additional Wi-Fi source in captive mode to expand coverage for applications such as video offload. The R2100 can be PoE powered while providing a high-performance 5G connection over Ethernet.

The R2100 5G ruggedized router is enabled by an Ericsson NetCloud Service subscription plan which includes everything needed to unlock the power of 5G at the network edge and connect devices to critical applications and services. It all works together, making it easy to deploy, connect, and secure edge applications at scale across the organization. The service includes a warranty for as long as there is an active subscription, online training, live and online support, and all software and firmware updates.

Coverage Map

Ericsson NetCloud Advanced Mobile Performance Service uses GNSS/GPS and 5G/4G cellular health to provide precise analytics about location and signal strength. Data can be mapped to display both the current and historical locations of a vehicle, as well as generate detailed coverage maps that display cellular health, allowing users to gain operational insights and solve problems.

Advanced Software Lifecycle Management

Ericsson NetCloud improves the typical software lifecycle management process. New features are continuously delivered to Ericsson NetCloud and become available for the router without interrupting network performance. Software versions are tracked for every endpoint, with the latest update just a click away. Straightforward subscription and license management is easily accessible and provided to keep the network running without interruption.

Security Services

Ericsson NetCloud Advanced Mobile Performance Service includes security features that include application aware zone-based firewall, CP Secure Threat Management (IPS/IDS), and CP Secure Web Filter for protecting your network and meeting the evolving security needs of in-vehicle environments.

The R2100 supports NetCloud Exchange, a unified network and security WAN architecture built upon zero-trust principles and optimized for 5G. NetCloud Exchange helps lean IT organizations simplify deployment and management with shared policies and simplified processes.
