Your business tech needs have changed. Your competitors have taken note. [Let's meet](#responsive-form) ## Cellular solutions help your network keep up with industry innovation Name something your business is doing that doesn’t require network connectivity. It’s a short list, right? Your organisation's digital tools range from point-of-sale systems in stores and guest Wi-Fi in coffeehouses to video streaming in police cars at critical times. Gaining an edge in this digitally dominated world usually calls for exceptional cellular performance and stringent network security anywhere. Ericsson’s enterprise wireless solutions keep data and revenue flowing — securely, with 5G. ![cafe](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2588e757607604a2/bltb2730cd429966fc6/6a260a2bd042e8428f24880e/cafe.jpg) ## Industries ![Stores that stay ‘up’ despite outages](https://images.contentstack.io/v3/assets/blt2588e757607604a2/blt5faa4e01bc2f4dde/6a260a3420a1490319818fb3/retail.jpg) ### Stores that stay ‘up’ despite outages Even just a couple hours of downtime are downright devastating for a retail business. From brick-and-mortar locations with digital signs and point-of-sale to pop-ups, kiosks, and delivery trucks all over, dependable cellular connectivity underlies operations and customer experiences. Ericsson’s enterprise wireless solutions, including Ericsson Cradlepoint routers, unlock the flexibility, performance, and cost-effectiveness of 5G and LTE to create secure, always-on Wireless WAN (WWAN) connectivity wherever you transact with customers.

Many agencies address this challenge by automatically going back and forth between two carriers. Ericsson’s enterprise wireless solutions, including Ericsson Cradlepoint dual-modem routers, enable instant 5G and LTE failover for nonstop connectivity in vehicles and also in widespread stations.

Those “things” range from automated vehicles and robots to security cameras, sensors, and scanners. When performance lags, so does revenue and sometimes even worker safety. Ericsson’s private 5G solutions give companies control of their own wireless private network, with better coverage and more seamless mobility than Wi-Fi provides.

These fast-paced sites need connectivity for so many devices and applications — connectivity that can be moved at a moment’s notice. WWAN solutions have become essential infrastructure for portables where foremen and other staff need access to a variety of Internet-based platforms. And private 5G networks can be set up to keep additional tools — such as automated vehicles, robots, and security cameras — connected to each other across large areas.
