L950 Series
Indoor LTE low-and mid-band adapter to add primary or failover connectivity
The Ericsson Cradlepoint L950 Series is an indoor LTE adapter designed to add primary or failover connectivity using low- and mid-band LTE (Cat 7 modem) for branch sites, remote locations, and hybrid WAN environments. It maximizes network uptime with LTE WAN diversity, supports day-1 connectivity while awaiting terrestrial links, offloads primary connections during surges/congestion, and enables out-of-band management to reduce truck rolls.
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.
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 LTE 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 LTE 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 LTE Adapter falls into backup mode.
