Product Highlights

CLOUD-MANAGED ACCESS

All cnPilot™ access points are managed by cnMaestro from the cloud, an on-premises VM or a private datacenter. cnMaestro provides a single-pane-of-glass dashboard for Wi-Fi, Ethernet, fixed wireless broadband and service provider home routers.

The e505 is designed for fast, discrete deployment of outdoor Wi-Fi, ideal for an aesthetically sensitive area like a hotel pool, or unobtrusive public and community Wi-Fi. The e505 has an omni coverage internal antenna with an integrated mounting bracket.

time and throughput limits

cnMaestro Essential cloud management is included at no additional cost. There are no setup fees, license, or recurring costs. cnMaestro includes detailed network statistics, channel utilization graphs, and integrated remote troubleshooting tools to ensure service is always on.

The e510 is rail shock and vibration certified, and includes extended surge and ESD protection. Additionally, an integrated LTE filter reduces impact from nearby LTE frequencies. Operating temperature spans

The e700 provides edge intelligent services and the 4x4 MU-MIMO antenna array to deliver those services. The dual-gigabit Ethernet ports support link aggregation (LAG) for higher throughput needs, or GE2 can be enabled to deliver W of operating power for a Cambium subscriber module or any Ethernet- and PoE-powered device.

Ideal Applications

SMB, hospitality, and MDU deployments requiring cost-effective cloud-managed Wi-Fi. MSP-managed networks leveraging cnMaestro for zero-touch provisioning and real-time monitoring.
