Ericsson Cradlepoint R2400/RC1250

Mission-Critical Connectivity

See how STEP delivers unbreakable 5G vehicle connectivity with the Ericsson Cradlepoint R2400 and RC1250 — the most advanced ruggedized routing platform built for first responders, transit fleets, and mobile operations.

Keeping Fleets Connected When
It Matters Most

Today's emergency and transit vehicles are hyper-connected mobile command centers — running dash cams, license plate readers, CAD systems, body cameras, and AI-powered applications simultaneously. With 75% of first responders ranking reliable network access as the single most important factor for daily communications, inconsistent connectivity is no longer an inconvenience — it's a liability. STEP and Ericsson Cradlepoint are solving that challenge with the R2400 and RC1250, a next-generation 5G platform purpose-built for the demands of mission-critical mobile environments.

Engineered for the Field

Deploying reliable, future-ready connectivity across a fleet of vehicles requires more than off-the-shelf hardware. STEP's expertise in cellular networking combined with Ericsson Cradlepoint's R2400 platform delivers a complete solution across four critical pillars.

Future-Proof Architecture

Built for Every Vehicle, Every Mission

The R2400 is the first 5G Standalone R17 ruggedized router with an embedded Wi-Fi 7 access point — engineered to perform in the harshest mobile environments. Its Dual SIM/Dual Standby capability delivers 10X faster failover between carriers on a single modem, eliminating the costly dual-modem setups that burden smaller agencies. Real Time Kinematics and dead reckoning provide location accuracy down to one centimeter — precise enough to track a vehicle to a single lane, even in tunnels, parking garages, and areas with heavy GPS obstruction. For agencies investing in AI, the R2400 provides 2.5X more edge compute than previous-generation products, enabling local inferencing for computer vision, sensor analytics, and autonomous systems without backhauling data to the cloud.

Scale Without Starting Over

The RC1250 extensible modem transforms how agencies plan for the future. Starting with a single embedded modem in the R2400, organizations can expand to five concurrent 5G SA connections — including LEO satellite — as bandwidth needs grow, without replacing the router itself. This pay-as-you-grow architecture protects existing investments as 5G modem technology evolves every 12 to 24 months. The entire platform is secured through Ericsson's NetCloud, delivering zero trust WAN connectivity, SD-WAN with intelligent bonding, a hybrid mesh firewall with IDS/IPS, and FIPS 140-3 compliance — all managed from a single cloud dashboard with zero-touch deployment, bulk configuration, and AI-powered anomaly detection.
