Case Study: Arkansas’ Largest Ambulance Company achieves 75% lower internet costs and 1500% faster access with Cradlepoint COR Series 4G LTE

Arkansas’ Largest Ambulance Company Profits by Using Cradlepoint Solution to Switch from DSL to Wireless in Branch Offices

Arkansas’ Largest Ambulance Company, a non-profit EMS provider headquartered in Little Rock with satellite offices across central Arkansas, was struggling with slow, intermittent and costly DSL connections (often under 3 Mbps and prone to outages). The organization turned to Cradlepoint and deployed COR Series 3G/4G/LTE wireless routers to replace DSL and provide reliable broadband to its central and branch offices.

Cradlepoint’s COR Series LTE solution delivered measurable results: internet costs dropped by more than 75% while access speeds rose as much as 1,500% (now consistently 20–45 Mbps and up to 56 Mbps), with no more DSL downtime; each location can support up to 35 simultaneous users and the Mobile Command Center now uses LTE in the field. Cradlepoint’s deployment produced strong ROI (payback in a little more than a year), improved uptime and security, and a smaller, more manageable hardware footprint.
