Overview
- The Cradlepoint S400 is a semi-ruggedised compact router designed for zero trust IoT applications in demanding environments. With an embedded Cat 6 LTE modem, dual SIM support, and Wi-Fi 5 connectivity, it provides fast and reliable connectivity for edge locations where traditional fixed broadband is unavailable or insufficient.
Security is built in through NetCloud Secure Connect SASE, which provides zero trust architecture and connect-and-go security without additional software licensing. The device is managed entirely through Ericsson's cloud-based NetCloud Manager, enabling IT teams to define policies, deploy configurations, and monitor connectivity from a single dashboard at scale.
The semi-ruggedised plastic form factor operates reliably across extreme temperature ranges (-20°C to 60°C) and supports vibration, making it suitable for vehicles, outdoor installations, and portable deployments. Configurable GPIO ports, GNSS/GPS capability, and NetCloud SDK access allow integration with custom IoT applications and third-party systems.
Certified by major U.S. carriers and FirstNet Trusted for public safety networks, the S400 is ideal for enterprises requiring secure, managed cellular IoT connectivity across distributed locations.
