    5G Cellular Connectivity for Branch Offices

    Distributed branch offices are undergoing a digital transformation to meet the evolving business objectives and to handle mission-critical applications. This means enterprise branch offices must improve their network operations, deploy new services faster, and deliver an enhanced and secure user experience. What they need is an optimized, high-bandwidth, secure, and easy-to-deploy solution. The HPE Aruba Networking 100 Series Cellular Bridge provides convenient primary or backup cellular connectivity to branch offices and remote sites.


    This series can be deployed with EdgeConnect gateways and connected via fast 2.5 Gbps Ethernet links. This cellular bridge, combined with EdgeConnect SD-Branch, encompasses each element within a branch — WAN, WLAN, wired, and security — to address enterprise network connectivity and security needs. The HPE Aruba Networking 100 Series acts as a bridge for other HPE edge devices to provide primary or secondary cellular connectivity by interoperating with public or private networks (it does not deliver a private cellular network).
