The Ericsson Cradlepoint S400 is a cloud managed, semi-ruggedized secure appliance and router for IoT networks. Offering connectivity through LTE plus wired and Wi-Fi options, the S400 is designed for light industrial, digital signage, and kiosk use cases. The S400 includes an Ericsson NetCloud Service Plan Secure IoT license, which provides management at scale, group policies, configurations and troubleshooting, plus connect and go zero trust security.
When coupled with the Ericsson NetCloud Secure IoT service plan, the S400 provides a compact, semi-ruggedized Cat 6 4G LTE router and security solution for connecting IoT devices at scale. With an IP30-rated housing built to withstand vibration and temperature extremes and designed for mounting on DIN rails, the S400 is ideal for use in light industrial applications such as SCADA, remote monitoring, smart city intelligent traffic control or in applications such as surveillance cameras, digital signs, and control sensors. With an extensive list of features, it can be confidently deployed in the field, in buildings, or in embedded systems to deliver complete visibility, security, and control of connected devices anywhere.
For organizations requiring robust connectivity for IoT networks - with installed networking endpoints numbering from a handful to many thousands - Ericsson's NetCloud Secure Services for IoT with the S400 provides a comprehensive cloud managed network solution with NetCloud SASE Secure Connect included. With this zero-trust security, any IoT device connected to the S400 is immediately hidden from public scans and from devices connected to other routers. Access policies are easily defined so IoT devices communicate only with their authorized resources on a leastprivilege basis. Ericsson's NetCloud-managed IoT endpoints can be rapidly deployed and easily scaled to accommodate the diverse requirements of organizations.
