CradlePoint R920-C7A Wi-Fi 6 IEEE 802.11k/v/ax 2 SIM Ethernet, Cellular Modem/Wireless Router

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R920 ruggedized router is a uniquely agile cellular networking solution that meets organizations' needs for flexible connectivity and product standardization for vehicles and IoT. The R920 is a ruggedized LTE networking platform available with either Mobile or Ruggedized IoT Ericsson NetCloud Service plans, providing features optimized for the needs of the differing deployments.

High-Performance Vehicle Connectivity

The Ericsson Cradlepoint R920 router with the Ericsson NetCloud Mobile Service plan provides a ruggedized GNSS/GPS-enabled in-vehicle network solution. Combined with the Ericsson Cradlepoint RX20 managed accessory, the R920 can be field upgraded to include a second LTE or 5G modem. When coupled with the Advanced Mobile Service plan, it provides threat management, web filtering, application visibility, analytics, and advanced GNSS/GPS functionality such as location tracking and cellular coverage maps. The R920 also supports NetCloud Exchange services, which provide Zero Trust Network Access and cellular-optimized SD-WAN.

Ruggedized IoT Solution

When combined with the Ericsson NetCloud Ruggedized IoT Service plan, the R920 provides a versatile, ruggedized 4G LTE router solution for connecting and protecting IoT devices at scale. It can be deployed in a wide range of environmentally harsh IoT use cases such as kiosks, building automation, oil and gas, utility, and smart city infrastructure deployments. The ruggedized design and the CBRS band support make it ideal for private networks. In addition, the solution is highly extensible with APIs, SDKs, and integrations into IoT platforms, and the generous memory supports onboard edge containers. The R920 also supports NetCloud Exchange services, which provide Zero Trust Network Access and cellular-optimized SD-WAN.

Key Software Capabilities

Ericsson NetCloud Service for the R920 provides everything needed to unlock the power of LTE and connect vehicles, users, and IoT to critical applications and services. The available Ericsson NetCloud IoT or Mobile service plans include the appropriate router software with powerful cloud management features for managing IoT at scale, or specific mobile features like coverage maps, integrated content filtering, intrusion detection and protection, and application-aware analytics and networking. Everything within Ericsson NetCloud works together, making it easy to deploy, connect, and secure edge applications at scale across the organization.

Coverage Map

Ericsson NetCloud uses GNSS/GPS and cellular health to provide precise location and signal strength analytics. Data can be mapped to display both a vehicle's current and historical locations, as well as generate detailed coverage maps that display cellular health, allowing users to gain operational insights and solve problems.

Security Services

Ericsson NetCloud Service includes security features and options to optimize the R920 router to meet the evolving security needs of mobile and IoT environments. The service includes a stateful zone-based firewall with the ability to add application-aware zone-based firewall, CP Secure Threat Management (IPS/IDS), and CP Secure Web Filter with the Advanced Mobile Service plan.

The R920 supports NetCloud Exchange, a unified network and security WAN architecture built upon zero-trust principles and optimized for cellular. NetCloud Exchange helps lean IT organizations simplify deployment and management with shared policies and simplified processes.
