Cradlepoint enables the freedom to connect people, places, and things that drive more experiences, more ways to work, and better business results — anywhere. The company is a pioneer in Wireless WAN, offering advanced 4G and 5G routers and adapters — controlled through Cradlepoint NetCloud™. Enterprises and public sector agencies rely on Cradlepoint and its Cellular Intelligence to build a reliable, secure network wherever they need it, connecting fixed and temporary sites, vehicles, IoT devices, and remote employees. Headquartered in Boise, Idaho, Cradlepoint is a subsidiary of Ericsson’s Business Area Enterprise Wireless Solutions division. It has international offices in Asia Pacific, Canada, Europe, India, and Latin America. 

5G is quickly emerging as an essential WAN infrastructure and will drive WAN expansion and evolution. However, these trends can produce a larger attack surface, unique, cloud-driven traffic patterns, and a greater number of connected endpoints. As a result, SD-WAN and security technologies will need to adapt to 5G-enabled traffic and security postures in the same way they are continuing to adapt to multi-cloud and remote / hybrid work integration.

Specific topics to be discussed include:
- How 5G is being used today in enterprise WANs
- The impact 5G has on traditional networking technologies such as SD-WAN
- The alignment of ZTNA with the zero-trust principles built into the 5G networking standards
- Considerations for implementing ZTNA over 5G networks.

When 5G Meets SD-WAN & Zero Trust

The power of IoT data is driving businesses and agencies further into digital transformation — and deeper into problem-solving related to connectivity, security, and scalability. From the tiniest devices featuring built-in connectivity to HD video surveillance systems enabled by cellular routers, finding the right IoT solution requires careful consideration of your organization’s specific wireless networking needs.

Cellular-enabled routers are an important option for use cases such as kiosks, digital signs, video surveillance, smart buildings, and IoT data flowing from LAN to WAN in stores and fleet vehicles. In this webinar, experts from Cradlepoint and Sestra Systems will explore the six key factors to consider when choosing an agile IoT solution that leverages LTE or 5G.

Our Must-Haves:

1️⃣ Ample scalability
2️⃣ Enterprise-class security layers
3️⃣ Small, upgradeable form factor
4️⃣ Edge compute capabilities
5️⃣ Flexibility for multiple technologies and use cases
6️⃣Robust centralized management

Six 'Must Haves' for Deploying Agile IoT Routers in Enterprise Environments

Are you evaluating a new WAN project? Are you wondering how the growth of 5G might impact your network architecture? Join this webinar to hear from Howard Holton, the CTO of GigaOM research, about what the future holds for SD-WAN and what you need to consider as you embark on your next WAN refresh project.

The Future of SD-WAN and its Intersection with 5G

As more enterprise-generated data is created and processed at the edge of the network, Mobile Edge Compute (MEC) is becoming a driving force behind this trend. Currently, only 10% of data is generated outside traditional data centres or the cloud, but by 2025, Gartner predicts this figure will reach 75%. Cradlepoint is at the forefront of this trend with its ability to run secure Docker containers directly connected to IoT sensors or devices via routers.

Join us for a webinar on the impact of Mobile Edge Compute (MEC) on the IoT market, including customer success stories, where we will explore:

The types of workload that can be performed at the edge of the network
How this trend is changing the way enterprises process and store data
The benefits of running secure Docker containers directly connected to IoT devices
How our experience with customers in different industry sectors demonstrates best practice in MEC
Don't miss this opportunity to learn about the future of data processing and storage.

Exploring the Impact of Mobile Edge Compute on IoT Data Processing and Storage

As enterprises continue their digital transformation journey, private cellular networks are enhancing the ability to use, control, manage, and benefit from wireless connectivity at the LAN level in large spaces. 

In this webinar, we’ll highlight a range of projects — from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and smart cities — where private 5G and LTE are revolutionizing operations, optimizing resource allocation, and transforming customer experiences.

The ROI of Private Cellular Networks in Enterprise Digital Transformation

This session from Cradlepoint Unwired covers the benefits of private cellular, when an enterprise may need a private cellular solution vs Wi-Fi or public cellular, and use cases.

Private Cellular: A new tool in your Wireless toolkit

DiPasqua Enterprises, one of Subway’s original and largest franchisees, has grown to over 100 Subway locations since their first store opened in 1977 in Orlando, Florida. 

 

Those growth plans have extended into other industries as the owners seek to diversify their franchising business to include three urgent care centers by the end of the year and 10-20 day spas over the next five years. 

 

DiPasqua Enterprises focuses on driving down costs and expenses. Choosing a Cradlepoint all-in-one hybrid WAN router not only broadened their WAN connectivity, but also saved them more than 20% in operational expenses.

The State of Connectivity UKI
“ 72 of UK Businesses experience 1-2 hours network downtime per week.”
Staying connected is a vital part of business success. Join Paul McHugh and Andy Sawyer, as they chat about 4G/5G connectivity across the UK.  In a wide-ranging informal discussion, they will touch on a variety of topics including:

- Why do we need 5G connectivity? When is 4G/LTE good enough?
- What are the key takeaways from the 2023 HM Government Wireless Infrastructure report. 
- Which sectors can benefit most from improved network infrastructure?
- How network connectivity is revolutionising Construction
- What are Smart Cites? And why do we need them?

72 of UK Businesses experience 1-2 hours network downtime per week.

In this increasingly interconnected world, data-rich devices and the highly actionable business insights they enable need the flexibility of wireless connectivity. However, in areas where Wi-Fi lacks in coverage or reliability and public cellular is either not available or too expensive for the large amount of data coming and going, private cellular  networks may be an excellent solution.  

These private network solutions combine the reliability, coverage, security, and mobility of cellular with the ease of use and enterprise control of Wi-Fi to support any enterprise IT/OT organization’s business critical applications and devices. These deployments help organizations with locations that require wireless connectivity but aren’t well supported by their current wireless infrastructure. 

Join this session for a discussion on how organizations can get more reliability, security, and agility with the unmatched performance and reach of advanced cellular connectivity. 

Topics will include: 
- When to use Wi-Fi vs. private cellular and when to combine the two 
- The end-to-end security that private networks use to keep data private 
- Real-world private cellular success stories 
- Use cases for private networks in smart cities, manufacturing, retail, government, and more

Elevate Your Business Connectivity with Private Cellular Networks

Expectations for organizations to produce more with less require optimization across the enterprise — especially the network. With most applications running from cloud services, connectivity is vital. Now more than ever, it is crucial to implement an effective 5G enterprise solution.

Customers now expect shopping to be a seamless experience. Whether instore or online, consumers want a process that is fast, frictionless and always available.

Additionally, customers are expecting to pay with contactless via their phones, connect instore to superfast Wi-Fi and order their products through apps or on instore tablets.

However, many internet providers are doing away with physical cables in densely populated areas while out of town shopping centres may struggle to find a connection fast enough for their needs.

Watch the webinar to find out:

 - How retailers can benefit from a consistent connection
 - Some of the innovative ways retailers are using 5G
 - How a superfast connection can improve business processes
 - Why retailers shouldn’t rely on phones for portable Wi-Fi
