The Cradlepoint MBR 800 is a cost effective broadband router with 3G failover for built-in redundancy. This router is designed to keep businesses, which do not require WiFi, running in the event of a primary ISP failure. When the MBR800 senses a disruption in service it automatically switches from a wired to a 3G network. Once service is restored, the MBR800 automatically fails back to your primary ISP keeping your business online without interruption to users.
In primary connect-type applications, such as kiosks or POS systems, the MBR800 still provides failover capabilities through its multiple modem ports and allows users to share a 3G connection without any additional software to load or hardware to configure.
