Cradlepoint R2105 Rugged 5G Router with Wi-Fi plus 3-Year TAA NetCloud Mobile Performance Essentials + Advanced (FIPS)

The R2105 belongs to Cradlepoint's R2100 Series of fully ruggedized 5G routers, combining a sub-6 GHz 5G modem with 4G LTE fallback, dual SIM failover, and dual-band Wi-Fi 6 for local device access. A hardened fanless enclosure lets it operate in environments that would cook or shake apart a desktop router, and Gigabit Ethernet plus integrated GPS/GNSS round out connectivity for cameras, controllers, and telemetry. It is the Wi-Fi-equipped variant of the series; choose the R2155 when Wi-Fi is not required.

Because this is a 3-year bundle, hardware and subscription arrive as one SKU: the router plus NetCloud Mobile Essentials, which covers zero-touch deployment, centralized configuration, remote monitoring and alerting, and firmware lifecycle management through NetCloud Manager, with 24x7 enterprise support for the life of the plan. Cradlepoint also warrants the hardware for as long as the subscription stays active, so a longer term extends coverage as well as management. The included Advanced feature tier layers on zone-based firewall policy, intrusion detection and prevention, web content filtering, expanded IPsec VPN capacity, and dynamic routing with BGP and OSPF - the security stack most regulated deployments end up needing anyway.

This TAA-compliant configuration (SKU TAA-MBA3-2105-5GB-FA) is built for harsh fixed sites and vehicles - the R2100 Series is built to live outdoors, on machinery, or in equipment cabinets where ordinary routers fail. The FIPS configuration runs validated cryptographic modules, satisfying agencies and contractors that must encrypt traffic with FIPS 140-2 approved algorithms. This SKU is aimed at North American deployments; insert an activated SIM from your carrier and the router can be online in minutes. In the box you get the R2105-5GB router with the 3-year subscription entitlement registered to your NetCloud account; antennas and power accessories vary by SKU, so check the configuration or ask our team before ordering for a fleet.
