Cradlepoint announces availability of 5G-optimised SD-WAN

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 9 (Bernama) -- Cradlepoint, the global leader in cloud-delivered LTE and 5G wireless network solutions, has announced the availability of the first 5G-optimised Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) solution.

The solution is part of NetCloud Exchange (NCX), an extension of Cradlepoint’s NetCloud solution that integrates security, SD-WAN, and Zero Trust into a single Wireless Wide Area Network (WAN) architecture.

With mass 5G deployments on the horizon, SD-WAN plays a critical part in the successful rollout and adoption of 5G Standalone (SA) networks with network slicing, the availability of which will accelerate through 2023.

Cradlepoint’s NCX allows organisations to create multiple modem WAN interfaces aligned to slice instances defined by 5G SA networks.

Cradlepoint has also made some critical adaptations to traditional SD-WAN technology in order for it to perform effectively across 5G WANs.

Key enhancements include consideration of cellular-specific attributes when steering traffic, preservation of bandwidth across metered links and Integration of Cradlepoint Cellular Intelligence to provide better insights and visibility of 5G networks.
