Description

The Cradlepoint R920 is a rugged router designed for mobile, IoT, and field deployments that require secure and flexible connectivity. It’s widely used in public safety, mass transit, industrial, and temporary installations where compact form factor and reliable performance are key.

This unit features an integrated Cat 12 LTE modem with support for CBRS Band 48 and a modular slot for 5G upgrades. It supports Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, and GNSS/GPS for fleet tracking and coverage mapping. The R920 meets MIL-STD-810G durability standards and is IP54-rated, with an operating range of -30°C to +70°C. NetCloud integration enables remote configuration and advanced monitoring.

The R920 is offered in Cat 12 LTE-only or modular LTE/5G variants. All versions support CBRS Band 48 for private LTE deployments.

Key Features

Connectivity & Wireless Support

  • The R920 supports LTE Cat 12 with fallback across a wide range of bands, including Band 48 for CBRS.
  • A modular slot allows future upgrades to 5G. Dual SIM support provides flexibility for private or public network deployment.

Rugged Design & Installation

  • Built to withstand field conditions, the R920 meets IP54 and MIL-STD-810G specs.
  • Its compact housing supports DIN rail or wall mounting and operates in harsh temperature ranges.

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth & GNSS

  • Supports Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) for local connectivity, Bluetooth 5.1 for IoT applications, and integrated GNSS/GPS for real-time fleet tracking and location services.

Security & Edge Capabilities

  • Features include multizone firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention, and FIPS 140-3 Level 1 encryption (in process).
  • Container support and NetCloud SDK enable edge computing and custom integrations.

Connectivity Requirements

To operate the Cradlepoint R920 on CBRS or cellular networks, you’ll need:

  • A nano SIM activated on a private LTE/5G network or public carrier. The R920 supports dual SIMs for failover or multi-network operation.
  • An active Cradlepoint NetCloud Mobile or IoT Service Plan is required for full functionality, including cloud-based management and software features.

Deploying CBRS-capable routers or IoT devices requires careful setup — from SIM provisioning and network configuration to remote management and testing. We can support every step. Reach out here to get started.
