Ericsson has launched the Cradlepoint R2400 and RC1250 modem, designed to meet the growing need for strong and smart connections in mobile environments, especially for vehicles and mobile teams. This solution offers fast failover, accurate location tracking, and powerful edge computing, helping organizations operate safely and efficiently.
The R2400 is ideal for a variety of sectors, including first responders, transit operators, and private fleets. It supports fast and reliable communication during missions, helps with route optimization, and assists in predictive maintenance. The modem works with public safety networks and new services, using the latest 5G technology to enhance performance across public safety, mass transit, and fleet networks.
Key features include:
- Fast carrier failover: Dual-SIM/dual standby (DSDS) technology allows a much faster carrier switch, ensuring continuous voice, video, and data during critical operations.
- Accurate location tracking: Using advanced techniques, the system can track vehicles and personnel to within a centimeter, improving real-time tracking.
- Multi-link resiliency: The R2400 can connect to up to five cellular networks and several satellite links, ensuring strong coverage even in remote areas.
- High-speed in-vehicle Wi-Fi: The built-in Wi-Fi 7 offers much faster internet speeds, improving communications for both passengers and staff.
According to coherent market insights, the Router Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2025 to 2032. Currently, the market is at USD 19.26 Bn in 2025 and is expected to be around USD 34.98 Bn by 2032. There is a rising demand for routers from both residential as well as commercial segments. Rapid industrialization and growth in infrastructure across developing nations have increased the need for high-speed networking components including routers. Additionally, the proliferation of internet services and high-speed internet technologies, such as 5G, is further supporting the demand for high-speed routers worldwide.
Jason Leigh, Senior Research Manager for 5G & Mobile Services at IDC says, “As digital transformation evolves operations across public safety, mass transit, and commercial fleets, vehicles are increasingly THE critical hub for information, coordination, and incident response. This shift necessitates in‑vehicle connectivity that is more reliable, adaptable, and better suited to real‑time, data‑driven tasks. Solutions like the Ericsson Cradlepoint R2400 aim to meet that need by giving mobile teams a stronger, more reliable foundation for emerging IoT and AI-enabled solutions in the field that fuel improved response times, enhanced worker safety, and more efficient operations on a daily basis.”
