Strengthened Ericsson Private Network portfolio leads the market in solution choice

• New Cradlepoint NetCloud Private Networks solution - tailored to the needs of dynamic enterprise IT environments - added to Ericsson Private Networks offerings as a complement to Ericsson Private 5G.
• Solution addition strengthens Ericsson’s leadership position in offering the broadest private network portfolio for enterprises and industries of all sizes and sectors
• Portfolio enhancement is a proof point of the successful integration of Cradlepoint into Ericsson

A broad range of enterprises and industries are set to benefit from a significant expansion in the Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) Private Network portfolio with the addition of a new IT-focused offering from the Ericsson subsidiary, Cradlepoint.

Called NetCloud Private Networks, the software-defined solution is a complete subscription-based offering with an initial focus on traditionally lean IT-oriented enterprises, including the logistics, light manufacturing, government, large retail, healthcare and hospitality sectors.

NetCloud Private Networks is available from January 11, 2023, initially targeting the United States’ market via CBRS spectrum.

The addition of NetCloud Private Networks means that Ericsson has the most comprehensive Private Network portfolio in the industry as enterprises and industries worldwide embrace digitalization and the fourth industrial revolution.

Will Townsend, Vice President and Principal Analyst, Networking and Security, Moor Insights & Strategy, says: “Whether you’re an enterprise deploying a private cellular network or a communication service provider reselling a private network solution, selecting a vendor that can address a broad set of use cases is critical. One size does not fit all, and Ericsson is focused on creating a broad portfolio of private network solutions that address the diverse needs of IT and OT buyers – covering simple to more complex environments.”

George Mulhern, Senior Vice President and Head of Business Area Enterprise Wireless Solutions, Ericsson, and CEO of Cradlepoint, says: “This new launch from Cradlepoint, and its addition to the Ericsson Private Networks portfolio, is another milestone in the successful integration of Cradlepoint into Ericsson. Ericsson has strengthened its leadership position in offering private cellular network solutions that address multiple use cases in enterprises of any size, and across many industries. Custome
