Ericsson has launched a new 5G adapter called the Ericsson Cradlepoint W2255 to help businesses stay connected and avoid costly network downtime.
The company says many organizations now lose hundreds of thousands — and sometimes over $1 million — during major network outages, making reliable internet connectivity a top priority.
The new W2255 adapter, powered by Ericsson NetCloud, allows businesses to use 5G wireless networks not just as backup internet, but as an active part of their daily operations. It also supports Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite connections for extra reliability, especially in areas affected by bad weather or weak network coverage.
Key features include:
- Faster switching between mobile network providers if one connection fails
- Automatic selection of the strongest carrier during setup
- Support for combining multiple 5G and satellite connections for stronger performance
- Improved visibility and control for IT teams managing many branch locations
- Rugged indoor/outdoor design suitable for offices and harsh environments
Industry experts say the solution could help businesses in sectors like retail and manufacturing maintain stable operations and support demanding applications such as AI-powered systems.
Ericsson says the platform is designed to simplify network management while improving uptime, security, and performance for distributed businesses with multiple branches or remote sites.
