FedRAMP-authorized wireless WAN for federal agencies
Federal agencies are required to use FedRAMP-authorized cloud services for most non-on-premises deployments. Ericsson NetCloud Federal, hosted by Axon, meets that requirement. Agencies can deploy cloud-managed 5G and LTE wireless WAN for their vehicle fleets and reuse an existing, government-validated security authorization rather than building one independently.
What FedRAMP High authorization means for your agency
FedRAMP High is the federal government’s most rigorous cloud security baseline, requiring a platform to meet approximately 450 security controls designed to protect sensitive government data. When an agency adopts a FedRAMP-authorized solution, they reuse that authorization rather than commissioning their own. That reduces the time and cost of getting new technology online and keeps compliance overhead manageable across the fleet.
NetCloud Federal operates on Axon’s FedRAMP High-authorized cloud environment. The authorization is already in place, so agencies can focus on deployment rather than documentation.
Ericsson NetCloud Federal, hosted by Axon
NetCloud Federal is a cloud-managed 5G and LTE wireless WAN platform built for federal fleet and vehicle operations. It pairs a FedRAMP High-authorized cloud management environment with ruggedized, FIPS 140-3 compliant Cradlepoint routers, giving agencies secure, centrally managed connectivity for patrol vehicles, mobile command units, and distributed field teams.
IT teams get a single platform to deploy, configure, monitor, and troubleshoot vehicle routers across large, dispersed fleets, without manual, device-by-device work in the field.
Compliance credentials at a glance
FedRAMP High authorized
The NetCloud Federal cloud platform meets approximately 450 federal security controls. Agencies can reuse this authorization rather than building their own.
FIPS 140-3 compliant hardware
Select Ericsson Cradlepoint routers have achieved FIPS 140-3 certification, supporting cryptographic security requirements at the edge of your network.
Built for federal public safety
Purpose-built for civilian agencies, law enforcement, DoD components, and homeland security organizations operating under strict FedRAMP and FIPS requirements.
Built for how federal agencies operate in the field
Federal agencies do not operate from fixed locations. Patrol vehicles cover wide geographies. Mobile command units deploy on short notice. Field teams work where wired infrastructure is not an option. NetCloud Federal is built for these realities.
- In-vehicle connectivity for patrol, response, and mission vehicles
- Mobile command and field operations requiring secure 5G and LTE access and onboard Wi-Fi
- Centralized deployment and management for large, distributed vehicle fleets
- Rapid, compliant rollout for newly fielded vehicles and surge operations
Why it runs on Axon’s platform
Axon builds the in-car video systems, body cameras, and evidence management platforms that federal and public safety agencies rely on every day. NetCloud Federal runs on Axon’s FedRAMP-authorized cloud infrastructure, making it the secure wireless backbone that connects Fleet 3 cameras, sensors, and other edge devices back to command centers and evidence platforms in real time.
For agencies already in the Axon ecosystem, this means the connectivity layer and the mission technology stack sit under a unified, government-authorized cloud environment.
Trusted by agencies across the country
Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions and Axon have partnered for more than 10 years, deploying joint solutions for public safety and enterprise customers worldwide. Agencies including the Los Angeles Police Department rely on Ericsson and Axon solutions to keep officers connected and data moving in real time, from the vehicle to the command center.
