A recent consolidation and consequential divestment in the networking industry may leave many small and medium business owners wondering what they should do with their Wi‑Fi networks.
Here is a clear overview of Cambium Networks and an outline that safeguards both your network and your peace of mind.
Our Promise: Long-Term Stability and Innovation
At Cambium Networks, we build network solutions designed to stand the test of time. We make four commitments to every small- and medium‑sized business that places its trust in our platform:
- ONE Network Platform. All our enterprise Wi‑Fi access points are part of the same solution and share the same optimized software – same with our cnMatrix switches. Our solutions are all designed to work together on the same network, with complete flexibility to upgrade as needed. This enables admins to seamlessly introduce new technology – such as Wi‑Fi 7 and multi-gigabit switches – into environments that run Wi‑Fi 5, Wi-Fi 6, and gigabit switches. Cambium does not lock you into a solution that limits growth options.
- Lifetime Hardware Protection. All our enterprise Wi-Fi solutions, including value‑tier models such as the XV2‑21X, come with a limited lifetime warranty and optional 24×7 Cambium Care support. Many alternative solutions on the market limit their warranties to one or two years, which speaks directly to the quality of the solution based on the willingness of the vendor to back it up.
- Flexible, Free Management. Cloud‑hosted cnMaestro Essentials provides multi‑site orchestration for Wi‑Fi, switching, security, and SD-WAN at no cost and in one single managed platform. If your operations call for advanced AI analytics, access control, or more data storage, a simple one-time upgrade to cnMaestro X haseverything in one all-inclusive license – and operates on the same hardware.
- Transparent Total Cost of Ownership. Our value pricing keeps hardware investments affordable and subscription fees optional, delivering tangible savings in both CapEx and OpEx.

Field Proven
Street Lane Primary School, Derbyshire UK (Education) — Working with Rezolution ICT, the school swapped aging Xirrus Wi‑Fi for six XV2‑2 Wi‑Fi 6 access points and cnMatrix switching, all cloud‑managed in cnMaestro Essentials. Two engineers completed the deployment outside of teaching hours in one day, bringing full‑fiber speeds to roughly 120 tablets and PCs and eliminating classroom connectivity complaints.
Maples Motor Inn, Tennessee USA (Hospitality) — Quickrelay installed XV2‑21X Wi‑Fi 6 APs across 80 rooms, cloud‑managed via cnMaestro X. Within 30 days, guest Wi‑Fi tickets fell to near zero, and OTA “Internet Quality” ratings climbed 30 points, boosting direct bookings.
