The TCA5-R980-5GD-A bundles the Cradlepoint R980 ruggedized 5G IoT router with a 5-year NetCloud Ruggedized IoT Essentials + Advanced subscription, so hardware, licensing, support, and warranty arrive on one purchase order and renew on one date. This is the Americas configuration of the bundle. The integrated 5G modem connects to sub-6 GHz 5G networks and falls back to 4G LTE automatically where 5G is not yet available, while dual SIM slots let you load a primary and a backup carrier for true multi-carrier resilience. An integrated Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) radio serves local clients, so one box covers both the WAN link and nearby wireless devices. A GNSS receiver supports location reporting for vehicle and asset tracking workflows. The hardened chassis is built for vibration, dust, and temperature extremes that would kill an office-grade router. On the management side, NetCloud provides zero-touch provisioning, remote configuration, real-time health and usage visibility, alerting, and API access from a single cloud console — one administrator can run hundreds of sites without leaving the NOC. The Advanced tier layered on top extends the platform with additional security, networking, and visibility capabilities beyond the Essentials baseline. It is a strong fit for fleet vehicles, portable connectivity kits, and remote industrial sites that need 5G performance from compact, hardened hardware. The bundle delivers the R980 unit and activation of the 5-year subscription; Cradlepoint hardware carries warranty coverage for as long as the NetCloud subscription stays active, so the whole package is covered end to end for the full term.
