Networks today are under pressure, from lean IT teams and expanding security threats in enterprise environments to rising spectrum noise and ARPU constraints for WISPs. What both audiences share is a common challenge: doing more with less while the network continues to scale.
That’s where Cambium’s ONE Network approach changes the equation by bringing switching, Wi-Fi, security, SD-WAN, fixed wireless, and fiber into a single, managed solution—all controlled through cnMaestro™. Instead of stitching together multiple vendors and tools, network operators get:
- One network to deploy and manage
- More efficient delivery of user experience
- Enterprise-grade performance at an affordable cost
- Seamless indoor and outdoor, wired, wireless, and fiber integration
This unified approach is especially powerful when combined with cnMatrix™ switching, which acts as the intelligent foundation of the network. In the coming months, we’ll explore how this architecture plays out for enterprise IT teams and WISPs.
cnMatrix: Built to Simplify Operations at Scale
Whether deployed inside an enterprise campus or at a tower site, cnMatrix switches are designed to reduce manual configuration and human error from Day One.
With Auto Configuration and Policy-Based Automation (PBA):
- Networks are configured once in the cloud
- Devices automatically receive the correct VLANs, policies, and power settings
- Adds, moves, and changes happen without manual port reconfiguration
This zero-touch approach accelerates deployment while ensuring every port is treated consistently: no spreadsheets, no color-coded cables, no guesswork.
Security That Adapts Automatically
cnMatrix improves security without increasing operational burden:
- Automatic device profiling by type
- Auto-segmentation for users, IoT, cameras, and infrastructure
- Policy enforcement that follows the device, not the port
When a device disconnects, policies are automatically cleaned up, reducing risk and simplifying compliance.
Optimized for Wireless, Ready for Anything
cnMatrix switches are purpose-built to support high-performance wireless networks:
- Right-sized bandwidth and PoE for Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 and fixed wireless radios
- Optimized automation for Cambium and third-party access points
- Seamless integration with indoor enterprise deployments and outdoor tower infrastructure
Lower Total Cost Without Compromise
Cambium delivers industry-leading Total Cost of Ownership by combining:
- Competitive hardware pricing
- Lower OPEX through simplified management
- No hidden licensing fees
- Long product lifecycles and backward compatibility
Add 24/7 live support and flexible management options (cloud, on-prem, mobile app, CLI), and cnMatrix becomes a switching platform that scales without redesign.
ONE Network. One Platform. One Operational Experience.
With cnMatrix as part of the ONE Network architecture, Cambium helps IT teams and operators focus less on managing individual devices—and more on delivering reliable, secure connectivity.
