Cradlepoint NetCloud

Centrally Managed

Lean election IT teams are tasked with maintaining secure, pop-up connections across a distributed geographic area. When a WAN source goes down, a truck roll may be costly.

The PNK is:

  • Centrally orchestrated and managed via Cradlepoint NetCloud
  • Monitored, managed, updated, and secured from a single screen
  • Alert rich from a robust platform tailored for your needs

Physical & Network Security

To protect the integrity of the democratic process, election IT teams must feel confident the WAN solution deployed at precincts is locked down, both physically and digitally.

The PNK provides:

  • Advanced security and Unified Threat Management (UTM) features
  • VPN, IPSEC, MAC Authentication, and enterprise firewall capabilities
  • Pad-lock & bike lock compatibility for tamper prevention

Ruggedized & Simplified

Traditional WAN solutions for elections are not ruggedized and can break in transit to and from precincts. Enterprise solutions are complex, and IT-deficient volunteers often struggle to deploy them.

The PNK is:

  • Weighs just 14 pounds, ensuring ease of deployment
  • IP-rated and ruggedized from the ground up
  • Deployed with the simple push of a button; no setup required

Augmented Support

Lean election IT groups face a key issue; too much to support with too little bandwidth, especially during key election periods such as local, primary, and presidential elections.

The PNK can be supported by:

  • Standard and limited warranty coverage
  • 24×7 Network Operation Center support
  • An onsite specialist dedicated to your team during elections
