Expansion of NSE portfolio delivers multi-gig security, public IP over any WAN, and proactive risk protection as part of Cambium’s ONE Network cloud-managed platform
HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., April 23, 2026 – Cambium Networks, a leading global provider of networking solutions, today announced expansion of its next-generation firewall portfolio with the introduction of the Network Service Edge (NSE) 4000 – a security platform purpose-built for modern enterprise networks operating across fiber, 5G, LTE, and satellite services such as Starlink.
As organizations place reliance on Internet-based WANs, many sites face challenges with CGNAT, lack of public IP addressing, inconsistent performance, and fragmented security visibility. The NSE platform addresses these challenges by combining high-performance security, consistent network reachability, and integrated network intelligence in a single, cloud-managed platform through Cambium’s ONE Network architecture.
The NSE platform integrates next-gen firewall capabilities, unified threat management (UTM), SD-WAN, and local network services (DHCP, RADIUS, etc.) – all centrally managed via cnMaestro cloud. The NSE enables enterprises and service providers to deploy scalable, secure networks without the cost and complexity of traditional multi-vendor or private WAN approaches.
“Modern networks are no longer built on predictable, private infrastructure – they span fiber, cellular, and satellite underlay networks with varying performance and limited visibility,” said Bruce Miller, VP – Enterprise Marketing at Cambium Networks. “With the new NSE 4000, we are delivering high-performance multi-gig security, consistent reachability across any WAN, and proactive risk mitigation with early detection. This enables customers to simplify their distributed networks while realizing significant cost savings compared with other solutions.”
Purpose-Built for Modern Distributed Networks
Cambium’s NSE platform is engineered for how networks actually operate today across mixed WAN environments with dynamic performance and evolving security risks:
- Full Security at Multi-Gig Performance
Deliver up to 10 Gbps firewall throughput and 3.2 Gbps advanced security throughput with next-gen firewall, IPS, and application control enabled, ensuring organizations can fully utilize modern multi-gig Internet links without compromising protection. - Public IP and Reachability Across Any WAN
Enable consistent inbound access and network reachability across fiber, 5G, LTE, and satellite connections, even behind CGNAT, without relying on MPLS, port forwarding, or ISP-provided public IPs. - Built for Fiber, 5G, and Satellite Connectivity
Integrate real-time monitoring for satellite links such as Starlink, intelligently distribute traffic across available WAN paths, and apply adaptive queue management to maintain stable application performance under varying network conditions. - Preventive Security with LAN Vulnerability Assessment
Go beyond reactive security with integrated 24×7 LAN-side vulnerability scanning and risk assessment, enabling organizations with proactive early detection and containment of risks before they are exploited.
Expanding the NSE Portfolio with NSE 4000
The NSE 4000 extends Cambium’s next-gen firewall portfolio to support higher-performance and multi-gigabit environments, delivering:
- Up to 10 Gbps firewall throughput (real-world LAN–WAN traffic)
- Up to 3.2 Gbps advanced security throughput (NGFW, IPS, application control)
- 8 × 2.5 GbE ports and 2 × 10G SFP+ uplinks
- Integrated PoE+ support for edge devices
- Multi-WAN support with intelligent failover and traffic steering
- Integrated VPN, IDS/IPS, DNS filtering, and application control
- Cloud-native management and zero-touch provisioning via cnMaestro
The NSE 4000 is designed for mid-sized to large enterprise sites, distributed retail and education environments, industrial deployments, and as a hub for multi-site SD-WAN architectures.
A Unified Architecture Without Performance Trade-offs
Cambium’s ONE Network architecture brings together security, switching, Wi-Fi, and WAN infrastructure into a single platform managed through cnMaestro. By integrating these capabilities, Cambium enables organizations to simplify operations while achieving performance levels typically associated with higher-cost, single-function appliances.
The NSE platform is particularly well suited for environments where traditional approaches, such as MPLS or private IP VPNs, are cost-prohibitive or impractical, enabling secure, high-performance connectivity over public Internet infrastructure.
Customer Validation
Zoher Hussain, Information and Communications Technology Manager at Mastercom, noted, “The NSE 4000 delivers a strong evolution from the NSE 3000 platform, maintaining the same reliable feature set while introducing updated hardware specifications for improved throughput and scalability.”
“As a result of the great support from Cambium, our evaluation of the NSE proved to be a much better experience than with other, more recognisable network vendors,” said Sam Fisher, ICT Solutions Manager from Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA) Flexible Schools Ltd., a group of 26 schools across Australia. “We’ve now deployed the NSE 3000 across all sites and have started implementing the NSE 4000 due to its higher throughput and larger port count. The experience led to our decision to deploy the full Cambium stack, including switching and Wi-Fi, across all sites. This single vendor approach has proven to be a great decision as cnMaestro provides a robust, cloud-managed, single pane of glass for the entire network.”
