The Cradlepoint E100 Enterprise Branch Router is a versatile and compact networking solution designed for small branch offices seeking robust, secure, and high-performance connectivity. Equipped with embedded 5G NR (or LTE depending on the modem variant), this router ensures fast cellular broadband for seamless corporate application access from virtually any location.

Featuring 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports and dual-band, concurrent Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), the E100 supports both wired and wireless client connectivity. The integrated firewall, IDS/IPS, and application-aware security mechanisms safeguard your network traffic, powered by the advanced SD-WAN capabilities of the Ericsson/Cradlepoint NetCloud platform.

With 4 SMA antenna connectors on the 5G variant, a USB port for flexible expansions, and optional battery backup support, the router ensures continuous operation and enhanced signal reliability. Its industrial plastic enclosure is designed to fit compact office environments.

Through cloud-based management via NetCloud Manager, IT teams benefit from centralized zero-touch deployment, live analytics, traffic steering, VPN management (supporting up to 20 concurrent tunnels), and policy enforcement, significantly reducing operational complexities.

The E100 is compatible with private cellular networks (CBRS, NetCloud Private Networks, Ericsson Private 5G) and offers unparalleled extensibility with SDKs and APIs for seamless integration into enterprise workflows. The product includes a 1-year NetCloud Essentials subscription that guarantees continuous software, firmware updates, and technical support.
