Wireless solutions built to keep firefighters safe and efficient when the heat is on

For firefighters on the frontlines, wireless connectivity is a lifeline. They rely on fast and always-on access to critical applications and data to perform their mission, whether in a vehicle, station, or on-scene.

Cradlepoint’s NetCloud Service and wireless routers unlock the power of LTE and 5G — including nationwide public safety networks — for reliable connections to MDTs, connected gear, sensors, and beyond. Cradlepoint helps firefighters safely and efficiently protect lives and property, especially when the heat is on.

Built to take the heat (and cold)

Cradlepoint wireless routers are tough, tested, and trusted. They’re engineered for long life and built to take the extreme temperatures, humidity, shocks, vibrations, dust, and occasional water splash that comes with the territory.

Manage like a pro, minus the pro

Fire departments can’t always afford network pros. Easy-to-use cloud management lets network novices centrally manage a Cradlepoint network like a pro — reducing vehicle garage visits and downtime.

Lives depend on location data

Accurate location data is essential — lives often depend on it. Precision, vehicle-integrated GPS provides location-based data for computer-aided dispatch and fleet management applications and helps locate firefighters in need.
