A BUSINESS-GRADE INTEGRATED SOLUTION
Business-Grade 4G Wireless Internet with Enhanced Security, Performance & Reliability
In combination with supported CradlePoint routers and adapters, the MC100W Business Grade Modem provides businesses with a fully-integrated solution for 4G/WiMAX internet access.
Supporting both primary connect and network failover applications, the MC100W features an integrate WiMAX module and high-gain external antennas to enhance in-building signal coverage and improve performance in fringe locations and areas of poor coverage.
DEDICATED AND SECURE
The MC100W is designed to be securely attached to compatible CradlePoint routers to create an “embedded solution”. Unlike standard USB or ExpressCard modem sticks, the internal WiMAX module cannot be used in laptops or personal computers. As a result, the modem is not a theft target for unauthorized uses.
As carriers begin to offer custom M2M metered data plans, this solution enables carriers and customers to utilize those data plans in remote, lights-out locations without fear of unauthorized usage or data plan abuse.
