Ericsson Cradlepoint A2400 Private LTE Indoor

Description

Ericsson Cradlepoint A2400 Indoor Cellular Access Point

The NetCloud Private Network solution features plug-and-play Cellular Access Points (CAPs) optimized for the 4G LTE CBRS spectrum band 48. Also known as small cells, these CAPs form a private Radio Access Network (RAN), providing secure, seamless connectivity for cellular endpoints and clients. Authentication and network control are managed centrally through the Mobility Gateway, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted operation. Both indoor and outdoor CAPs work in harmony to create comprehensive, private network coverage across the entire customer environment.

Key Benefits

• Plug-and-Play Deployment: CAPs feature automated provisioning and fast boot-up for hassle-free installation.
• Modern Design: Compact form factor with integrated antennas, offering aesthetics similar to Wi-Fi access points.
• Reliable Connectivity: Leverages dedicated spectrum and advanced interference management, minimizing connection drops for superior performance.
• Flexible Power Options: Supports both PoE+ and DC input for versatile deployment.
• Customizable Performance: TDD modes 1 and 2 allow dynamic adjustment of uplink and downlink throughputs to meet specific network needs.

A Superior Alternative to Wi-Fi for Larger Networks

When Wi-Fi struggles to meet coverage, reliability, or mobility demands, a Private Cellular Network (PCN) offers a robust alternative. While Wi-Fi can be effective in small commercial spaces, it often underperforms in larger deployments, leading to dead zones, sticky client issues, and limited outdoor coverage. These challenges can result in costly disruptions. The NetCloud Private Networks A2400 CAP overcomes these limitations by combining easy deployment and management with deep network insights and precise control.

Reliable Connectivity for Critical Applications

NetCloud Private Networks provide the level of determinism and reliability Wi-Fi often fails to deliver, making them the ideal solution for critical applications. PCNs ensure predictable network performance with dedicated bandwidth, eliminating the unpredictability often associated with Wi-Fi’s “best effort” approach. Unlike Wi-Fi networks, where devices initiate handoffs between access points (often causing gaps in connectivity), NetCloud’s CAPs manage seamless handoffs between devices, ensuring uninterrupted connections across the network. This system-wide approach enhances network performance, minimizes downtime, and ensures reliable connectivity for critical operations.

With NetCloud Private Networks, enterprises gain a scalable, future-proof wireless LAN solution that offers guaranteed reliability, broad coverage, and smooth client mobility, whether indoors or outdoors.
