About This Device
The IBR1700 is Cradlepoint's performance router for vehicles and demanding field work, but plenty of them live in racks — lab benches, staging facilities, mobile command trailers and site cabinets. The 170750-001 is the factory hardware that puts them there correctly: a rack-mount bracket kit purpose-made for the IBR1700 series.
The package contains two wing brackets, four M5 screws that fasten the brackets to the IBR1700's chassis mounting points, and two additional bolts with nuts to stabilize the assembly in the rack. Because the brackets are engineered for the IBR1700's dimensions and mounting bosses, the result is a squared, rigid installation — no shelf, no zip ties, no improvised angle stock.
Rack-mounting the router pays off operationally. The unit occupies planned rack space with its ports, antenna connectors and SIM access oriented for service. Cabling dresses properly to rack rails. In mobile command vehicles and trailers — natural IBR1700 territory — the rigid bracket connection matters even more, keeping the router seated through road vibration that would walk a shelf-mounted unit around.
For labs and staging operations that burn through IBR1700 configurations, keeping a few kits on hand means any router can go into any rack on demand. Genuine Cradlepoint accessory, MPN 170750-001, UPC 810007800530, made in Taiwan, approximately 5 lb shipping weight. Verify your router is an IBR1700-series unit — the kit's brackets are model-specific.
