Overview:
The NetCloud Private Network solution includes plug-and-play Cellular Access Points (CAPs) that support the 4G LTE CBRS spectrum band 48. Sometimes referred to as small cells, these CAPs form the private Radio Access Network (RAN) that cellular endpoints and clients connect to and are authenticated through the Mobility Gateway. All indoor and outdoor CAPs work together to create contiguous private network connectivity across the entire customer landscape.
Network controlled, prescriptive device mobility
RF coverage range for miles
SIM-based authentication eliminates the risk posed by traditional credential-based attacks
Built-in automated acquisition of dedicated CBRS spectrum
Notable Benefits
- Plug and play CAPs with automated provisioning and quick boot up.
- Fit for function coverage options with internal or external antenna options.
- Flexible backhaul options with ethernet or fiber.
- Utilizes dedicated spectrum and advanced interference management, significantly reducing the risk of connection drops and ensuring superior connectivity.
- Carrier Aggregation, Dual Carrier, and Time Division Duplex (TDD) modes 1, 2, and 6 enable customizable uplink and downlink throughputs.
Coverage Measured in Miles
Cellular Access Points offer significant coverage advantages over Wi-Fi outdoors and public cellular services indoors. These CAPs extend far beyond the limited range of Wi-Fi, providing reliable connectivity for extensive outdoor industrial, agricultural, and operational areas. Indoors, they surpass public cellular services in coverage and capacity, tailored to the specific requirements of the facility. Unlike public cellular, which can suffer from signal degradation and congestion, NCPN CAPs ensure robust signal penetration and dedicated bandwidth, facilitating advanced applications such as automation, secure communications, and real-time data analytics in environments like warehouse yards and industrial manufacturing facilities.
Reliability You Can Count On
NetCloud Private Networks excels in network determinism, client mobility, and overall reliability, markedly outperforming Wi-Fi. PCNs ensure predictable network behavior with guaranteed bandwidth, essential for critical applications. Unlike Wi-Fi, where client devices determine handoffs, potentially leading to connectivity gaps, NCPN manages client mobility seamlessly across multiple CAPs, ensuring devices maintain stable connections. This system-wide approach to managing connections enhances the reliability of the LAN, reducing downtime and maintaining consistent network performance.
NetCloud Private Networks elegantly balances deployment and management simplicity, with powerful insights and control
NetCloud Private Networks is an end-to-end cloud-native private cellular network solution designed for the needs of today’s dynamic enterprise IT ecosystems. NCPN is packaged to make it easy to prioritize security and quality of service while also enabling plug-and-play deployments that scale with an API-first design philosophy. NetCloud Private Networks is built from the ground up using zero-trust principles and is based on a granular and dynamic policy framework that is core to the architecture. This provides an added layer of security over and above SIM-based authentication.
