the unique nature of the Tech Day briefings. “Due to security considerations, network access to the Internet was not available for anyone who was not an authorized HP user,” Tom recalls. “This obviously caused huge problems for our blogger guests. When we made the announcement that there wasn’t going to be any Internet access, there were audible groans.” “Given the ease of use, quality and the low cost, [the PHS300] is a sure winner.” CradlePoint [PHS300] really saved the day.

time-consuming. Further, many of the locations that use these scales—for example, gravel pits, coal mines, power plants, train yards, etc.—are located far from urban areas, so getting a local area technician to the site can require hours of travel. SOLUTION “My [CradlePoint] CBA250 [Cellular Broadband Adapter] plugs into the Ethernet RJ-45 port of the scale. Using its mobile broadband connection, the CBA250 makes the scale accessible to me over the Web,” says Stephan.

having to travel to it. He looked at off-the-shelf web cam systems, which would allow him to view job sites over the Internet right from his computer. However, he quickly found that they cost thousands of dollars. He explored an option of tying web cameras into the GPS units on his company trucks, but couldn’t make that work. Next, he started looking into 3G/broadband mobile connectivity via air cards that deliver Internet access for laptops. And that’s when he found CradlePoint.
The CradlePoint CTR500 instantly creates a Wi-Fi hotspot on Martz motorcoaches that any Wi-Fi enabled device can connect to—laptop, PDA, camera, phones, etc. The CTR500 connects to the Internet via 3G/4G mobile broadband networks (e.g., Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, etc.) using a USB air card. The result is reliable web and email access for Martz Trailways customers. Anywhere...anytime.
As Martz continued to explore options, their vendor pointed the company to CradlePoint routers. “The solution of an economical router came to us from the Gateway software people, who were helping us with the paperless ticketing system. When we investigated CradlePoint, the price point was excellent. No one else came close,” says Bob.
The CradlePoint MBR1000 instantly creates a Wi-Fi hotspot that any Wi-Fi enabled device can connect to—laptop, camera, PDA, etc. The MBR1000 connects devices to the Internet in two ways: via 3G mobile broadband using an EVDO or USB air card, providing high-speed web access virtually anywhere. Or it can also be plugged into a DSL or cable modem.
• Beazle must coordinate with each store manager to ensure his operations don’t interfere with the store’s existing IT infrastructure • The day of installation, Beazle or one of his employees must be at the Wal-mart or K-mart all morning or all afternoon because the phone companies can’t specify a time when they will be on-site • Installation and setup costs run about $300 per site; then there are the monthly fees (usually higher since he’s on month-to-month contracts for the 4 months of tax season) • Each
The CradlePoint MBR1100 enables VPN sessions over the Internet. The MBR1100 instantly creates a Wi-Fi hotspot that any Wi-Fi enabled device can connect to—laptop, camera, PDA, etc. The MBR1100 then connects the devices to the Internet via 3G/4G mobile broadband using an EVDO ExpressCard or USB air card. It can also use a DSL or cable modem landline to connect to the Internet.
connectivity were available, but buying four of them would have cost more than $10,000. Further, 3G-enabled scanners are compatible with a limited number of wireless providers (e.g., AT&T, Verizon and Sprint). Benjamin Plumbing had a long-term contract with a regional wireless provider—U.S. Cellular—that 3G-enabled scanners do not support.
Maximizing the Value of Your Mobile Broadband Service The Advantages of the WiPipe™ Platform Overview This white paper looks at how users can maximize the value they get from their mobile broadband service plans. It explains how mobile broadband routers (also known as cellular routers or 3G/4G broadband routers) allow users to share their mobile broadband access via a Wi-Fi hotspot and/or Ethernet LAN connections.
The two main differences between mobile and traditional wired broadband routers are: 1. Source of the broadband connection 2. Modem (the device that modulates/demodulates the broadband signal before it goes into the router) Source Modem Wired broadband router • DSL/T1/Fiber – phone service provider (e.g., SBC, Qwest, Ameritech, Bellsouth, AT&T, etc.) • Cable – cable service company (e.g., Charter, Comcast, Cox, TimeWarner, etc.) • Satellite – satellite service provider (e.g.
The WiPipe™ platform provides a better 3G/4G mobile broadband router experience The transport technology of mobile broadband is different from that of DSL, cable, T1, fiber and satellite. In order to maximize performance, compatibility and ease of use, it’s critical that a mobile broadband router account for this difference. Router solutions that do not use the WiPipe™ platform usually start with conventional DSL/cable routing technology and then “bolt on” the mobile broadband component.
CradlePoint engineers work closely with manufacturers of USB air cards and ExpressCards to build drivers tailored specifically for their particular modem implementation.
Other Quality of Service features include prioritizing traffic for various wireless applications (like video conferencing), specific application protocols and specific computers on the wireless network. Automatic Failover protects against DSL/cable outages In select CradlePoint mobile broadband router models, the WiPipe™ platform provides Automatic Failover protection.
With CradlePoint routers and the WiPipe™ platform, users can create up to five secure VPN tunnels simultaneously…without the expense and hassle of purchasing a VPN service option. What’s more, the encryption ciphers/algorithms employed by the WiPipe™ platform are far more robust than the VPN encryption offered by non-WiPipe™powered solutions at similar price points.
