Enterprise networks continue to grow in complexity as organizations expand across locations, adopt cloud applications, and support hybrid workforces. IT teams must secure users and data while maintaining reliable connectivity and high performance across the entire network.
To address these challenges, Cambium Networks has launched the Network Service Edge NSE 4000, a next-generation firewall and SD-WAN platform designed for enterprises, campuses, and distributed branch environments.
The NSE 4000 combines high-performance security, multi-WAN connectivity, and cloud-based management to help enterprises simplify operations while strengthening network protection.
Built for Enterprise Performance
Modern enterprise networks require security platforms that can operate at multi-gigabit speeds without affecting application performance.
The NSE 4000 delivers up to 10 Gbps Layer-3 firewall throughput and 3.3 Gbps advanced security throughput, enabling organizations to run intrusion prevention, application visibility, and access policies while maintaining strong network performance.
Designed for large sites and headquarters environments, the platform supports networks with up to 2,500 connected devices.
The appliance also includes eight 2.5 GbE Ethernet ports and two 10 GbE SFP+ ports, giving IT teams the flexibility to connect high-speed WAN and LAN infrastructure.
Integrated Security and Threat Protection
Security remains a critical requirement for enterprise networks. The NSE 4000 integrates unified threat management features that protect the network without requiring multiple security appliances.
Capabilities include:
- Next-generation firewall with Layer-3 and application-based policies
- Intrusion detection and prevention to identify and block threats
- DNS content filtering across more than 80 domain categories
- Geo-IP filtering to control traffic from specific regions
- Continuous vulnerability scanning of devices on the LAN
These features help organizations identify threats quickly and maintain stronger security across distributed environments.
Intelligent SD-WAN and Secure Connectivity
The NSE 4000 includes advanced SD-WAN capabilities that improve reliability and optimize network traffic.
Organizations can configure multiple WAN connections in active-active or active-backup configurations, distribute traffic across links, and automatically fail over when link performance degrades. Business-critical applications can be prioritized while non-essential traffic can be limited.
Secure connectivity is supported through site-to-site VPNs and remote access VPNs using WireGuard, IKEv2, and L2TP-IPSec, allowing employees and remote offices to connect securely from anywhere.
The NSE 4000 also enables organizations to integrate LEO satellite connectivity, such as Starlink, into their WAN architecture. By combining Starlink with SD-WAN policies and secure VPN overlays, enterprises can extend reliable connectivity to remote offices, temporary sites, and locations where traditional broadband options are limited.
Cloud-Managed with cnMaestro
The NSE 4000 integrates with Cambium Networks’ cnMaestro™ cloud platform, providing centralized visibility and management across the entire network. IT teams can monitor traffic, analyze security events, deploy devices with zero-touch provisioning, and manage Cambium Wi-Fi, switching, security, outdoor wireless and fiber infrastructure from a single interface.
With high-performance security, flexible connectivity, and simplified cloud management, the Cambium Networks NSE 4000 helps enterprises secure and optimize modern distributed networks.
