About This Device
The Cradlepoint W1850 is a wideband 5G adapter that adds carrier-grade 5G WAN to the network you already run. It connects over 5G NR with 4G LTE fallback (North America modem) and hands traffic to your existing router, firewall, or SD-WAN edge over Ethernet — no rip-and-replace required. Dual SIM (4FF) support enables carrier redundancy, and the adapter can be positioned at the window or wherever signal is strongest. Like all Cradlepoint endpoints, it is deployed and monitored through NetCloud Manager alongside the rest of your fleet.
This bundle pairs the hardware with a 1-year NetCloud Branch 5G Adapter Essentials + Advanced subscription. NetCloud Manager provides zero-touch provisioning, remote configuration, real-time health monitoring and alerting, and centrally managed firmware updates across your entire fleet, backed by 24x7 technical support. Hardware remains covered while the subscription is active, so one line item budgets the router, the software, and the support for 1 year. Because this SKU also includes the Advanced plan, your team gains extended enterprise capabilities layered on Essentials — including advanced routing options and richer security and traffic controls for more demanding deployments.
In the box: the W1850 hardware with its standard accessories; the NetCloud subscription activates when the device is registered to your NetCloud account. This is a service-provider (MSP) part number intended for managed-service and carrier programs. This SKU is the North America variant.
