CBA750
CBA750 is powered by WiPipe technology, and working together with Sprint’s 3G and 4G networks, gives businesses a primary connection for applications such as Point of Sales (POS) or redundant connection to backup wired line services. As a high-performance adapter, CradlePoint’s CBA750 provides IP Pass-Through capabilities for devices that require wireless broadband access. Quickly installed, CBA750 handles the connection without configuration and provides enhanced network connectivity with support for USB and PC ExpressCard modems running on the Sprint 3G and 4G networks.
As a flexible connectivity solution, CBA750 converts Ethernet to mobile broadband and mobile broadband to Ethernet, making it easy to quickly drop mobile broadband into any Ethernet connection, and provide wireless broadband access to a host computer or server on a local area network. As a dual-mode adapter, the device can be run on both 3G and 4G networks via USB and ExpressCard WAN ports.
When used as part of a failover solution, CBA750 provides a wireless 3G/4G connection as backup connectivity when primary service is interrupted.
