About This Device
The TU-BEA6-W2255-5GF-NA bundles the Cradlepoint W2255 Wideband 5G adapter with a 6-year NetCloud Branch 5G Adapter Essentials + Advanced subscription, so hardware, licensing, support, and warranty arrive on one purchase order and renew on one date. This is a Trade Up SKU: Ericsson's trade-in pricing for organizations replacing legacy or competitive edge hardware — confirm program eligibility with your account team before ordering. This is the North America configuration of the bundle.
The integrated 5G modem connects to sub-6 GHz 5G networks and falls back to 4G LTE automatically where 5G is not yet available, while dual SIM slots let you load a primary and a backup carrier for true multi-carrier resilience. Because the W2255 presents that connection to your infrastructure over Ethernet, it drops into existing networks without redesign: keep your current firewall, routing, and policies, and simply add a wireless WAN path.
On the management side, NetCloud provides zero-touch provisioning, remote configuration, real-time health and usage visibility, alerting, and API access from a single cloud console — one administrator can run hundreds of sites without leaving the NOC. The Advanced tier layered on top extends the platform with additional security, networking, and visibility capabilities beyond the Essentials baseline.
It is a strong fit for enterprises standardizing on current-generation 5G wireless WAN for branch primary links, failover, and SD-WAN transport diversity. The bundle delivers the W2255 unit and activation of the 6-year subscription; Cradlepoint hardware carries warranty coverage for as long as the NetCloud subscription stays active, so the whole package is covered end to end for the full term.
