Cradlepoint L950 Series LTE Adapter
Enhanced branch LTE adapter ideal for failover, Out-of-Band Management, and bandwidth augmentation

Overview:

The purpose-built adapter

Cradlepoint endpoints provide industry-leading, LTE Advanced connectivity as well as Ethernet and Wi-Fi. These purpose-built endpoints are sold with a subscription to NetCloud Service for Branch Continuity which provides streamlined configuration and continuous cloud, modem, and router software feature enhancements.

Designed for remote sites that require secure, reliable failover connectivity in the event of a primary link disruption, the L950 Series cellular broadband adapter is a simple addition at the branch which significantly improves uptime and business continuity. These sophisticated devices can be configured at scale with NetCloud to offer a full range of zero-touch deployment, troubleshooting, and management features and integrate into existing configurations with standards-based routing, traffic shaping, and VPN support.

Notable Features

• Maximize network uptime using LTE WAN for failover and link diversity.
• Deploy within any existing networking or SD-WAN environment.
• Configure with greater simplicity and confidence with the wizard-based installation application.
• Utilize Day-1 connectivity while waiting for terrestrial links.
• Manage the Cradlepoint router and LTE adapter as one entity for singular control and visibility.
• Troubleshoot adapter and in-line devices with advanced Out-of-Band Management to reduce truck rolls.
• Offload primary connections during traffic surges and network congestion.

High Performance LTE for Failover Link Diversity

LTE wireless WANs provide a powerful, flexible, and cost-effective failover option to minimize disruption in the event of an outage. Working in conjunction with an existing router or SD-WAN, the L950 Series Adapter establishes a cellular connection based on established failover policies. The L950, despite its compact design, houses a Cat 7 modem, two Ethernet interfaces with a power over ethernet (PoE), a dual SIM capability to connect up to two carriers, and antenna. With this performance, many remote location operations and applications continue functioning while in failover.

Day-1 Connectivity for Rapid Deployment

Establish secure network connections to get operations running while waiting for a wired connection. L950 Series Adapters uniquely connect via LTE independently of the primary link so they don’t require prior connection via wired networks. Cradlepoint wireless broadband solutions can be set up in hours with zero-touch deployment without IT staff on location, so local personnel can set up the network. Once the wired link is established, the L950 Series Adapter falls into backup mode.
