The Ericsson W30/35 Mobile Broadband Router utilises an existing 2G/EDGE or 3G/HSPA mobile network to provide phone, broadband and fax services to residential, enterprise and small businesses, without the need for a fixed telephone line or access to a cable network. Simply insert a SIM card into the Mobile Broadband Router, plug it into a power point and the device is ready for use.

With the W30, a user can connect multiple computers via the Ethernet ports or in-built WLAN and a printer/USB key/external hard drive to the USB slot for sharing to all connected users. In addition to these features, the W35 also provides telephone and fax functionality.

The W30/W35 offers unlimited application possibilities for both business and residential customers, some examples include:

Office in a Box: provides an office solution to sectors such as mining, construction and emergency services where fixed infrastructure is costly and time prohibitive.

 

Data backup & redundancy: ensure business continuity to retail, banking and emergency services by providing a wireless voice and data redundancy path to guard against fixed line outages.

 

Fixed Line alternative: a cost and time efficient solution for broadband and fixed phone services, where POTS infrastructure is unavailable.

 

Mobile Workforce: event management, consulting and auditing sectors can bring their own wireless branch office (VPN) to a temporary work location.

 

DSL blackspots: ideal for areas where ADSL or Cable is not available.

 

Shared households: connect multiple users to the same device simultaneously

Rental market: freedom to change your location as often as you like with no relocation or reconnection fees.

 

Fixed second line: meet your additional phone line requirement at home, ideal for families with teenagers.

 

Holiday Home: avoid fixed line rental fees throughout the year by simply inserting your SIM when you visit.
