Blackfoot Communications Delivers Wireless WAN Options with Cradlepoint

Remote workers, branch locations, IoT deployments, and other use cases require reliable and secure connectivity, making wireless WAN the preferred broadband connectivity for branches, stores and other fixed sites. In fact, 67% of organizations in 2021 used 4G/5G for wireless WAN, an increase from 41% in 2018, according to IDG.

Wireless WAN is the new wave of network transformation, according to Cradlepoint. Through a partnership with Blackfoot Communications, Cradlepoint’s wireless WAN solutions will be delivered to a growing client-base of enterprise organizations and small businesses.
