  • Page 21 (also known as cellular routers or 3G/4G broadband routers) allow users to share their mobile broadband access via a Wi-Fi hotspot and/or Ethernet LAN connections. Further, it examines CradlePoint’s WiPipe™ platform for mobile broadband routing and how it enhances security, ease of use, performance, functionality and management control.
  • Page 22 The two main differences between mobile and traditional wired broadband routers are: Source of the broadband connection Modem (the device that modulates/demodulates the broadband signal before it goes into the router) Source Wired • DSL/T1/Fiber – phone broadband service provider (e.g., router SBC, Qwest, Ameritech, Bellsouth, AT&T, etc.)
  • Page 23 Yet even with this easy, plug-and-play setup, the WiPipe™ platform provides enhanced security protection. Here’s how: the first time a user starts up a CradlePoint router, he or she enters a code—printed on the side of the product box—to access the router’s Wi-Fi network.
  • Page 24 This provides great voice quality and clarity for VoIP calls. But when there is no VoIP traffic, other packets can take full advantage of the maximum available bandwidth. Even under demanding conditions—for example simultaneous VoIP calls and streaming video, a CradlePoint router can deliver the highest levels of service for both applications.
  • Page 25 Automatic Failover protection. If DSL/Cable/T1/Fiber is the primary source of broadband connectivity, a user can also plug in an ExpressCard and/or USB air card into the CradlePoint router, and configure it for failover. In the event of a DSL/Cable/T1/Fiber outage, the CradlePoint router senses the problem and automatically switches to mobile broadband Internet service.
  • Page 26 Wi-Fi and Ethernet performance. CradlePoint’s Wi-Fi subsystem is tested to ensure compatibility with the greatest number of Wi-Fi devices. As part of the WiPipe™ platform, all CradlePoint routers are certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance—the governing body for Wi-Fi standards. This third party certification ensures interoperability and adherence to Wi-Fi standards, which provides additional confidence for users.
