About This Item
Overview
Details
Captive Modem mode allows a Cradlepoint R2155 to act as a 5G adapter when connected with a Cradlepoint controlling router. The devices perform and are managed by NetCloud Manager as a single entity.In some instances, Cradlepoint 5G and LTE adapters may need to be placed in an optimal indoor or outdoor location to receive the best cellular signal. Captive Modem mode allows Cradlepoint 5G and LTE adapters to connect with Cradlepoint routers in separate physical locations while allowing the devices to perform and be managed by NetCloud as a single entity. A Cradlepoint router acts as the controller to the distinct Captive Modem adapter accessory for the deployment, management, and reduced licensing costs to take effect.
In Captive Modem mode, the Cradlepoint adapter accessory is seen in NetCloud as a Wi-Fi interface with the same functionality as embedded Wi-Fi radios, in addition to a modem WAN interface that shares all the same Wireless WAN functionality as embedded modems such as Smart WAN Selection, WAN Verify, and failover/failback.
