Pop-up services have become vital across many industries — from seasonal stores and tax prep offices to election polling places and emergency response tents. Organizations need to serve customers and conduct business in new places and ways, but pop-up services require a temporary network that is secure, easy to deploy, and centrally managed. Traditional wired networks often fall short due to unavailable or unreliable connectivity in temporary locations.
Ericsson's NetCloud Service, delivered through wireless edge routers, unlocks the power of 5G and LTE connectivity for an instant, secure, and manageable network – anytime, anywhere.
On-demand wireless accessCloud-managed 5G and LTE edge routers are truly plug-and-play, eliminating the need for IT personnel on-site. These routers can be set up in minutes, providing instant and reliable WAN connectivity for critical applications — as well as Wi-Fi — no matter where the pop-up location may be.
Standardized and predictable costsBy relying on nationwide coverage from one or two network operators, organizations can standardize their pop-up connectivity costs across the U.S., eliminating the need to negotiate with multiple internet service providers (ISPs) in each town.
Built-in network securityProtecting sensitive data is a top priority, even in temporary environments. NetCloud Service includes a robust suite of security features, including a zone-based and application-aware firewall, content filtering, and Intrusion Prevention Systems/Intrusion Detection Systems (IPS/IDS). For enhanced protection, add-on services like zero trust networking are also available. This comprehensive approach ensures that data remains secure, whether it's point-of-sale transactions, patient records, or confidential corporate communications.
