Case Study: Bilfinger SE achieves day‑1 connectivity and seamless multi‑carrier failover with Cradlepoint NetCloud Service

Bilfinger SE uses Cradlepoint’s wireless edge solution for day-1 connectivity anywhere and failover between multiple carriers

Bilfinger SE, an international industrial services provider that engineers and maintains facilities for sectors like oil & gas and energy, needed fast, reliable connectivity for on-site construction trailers where laying fiber would take too long. Heavy use of cloud-based design tools generated roughly 100–120 GB per month per site, regularly exceeding SIM limits and causing network outages, so Bilfinger turned to Cradlepoint’s NetCloud Service for Branch and LTE routers to enable rapid, day‑1 connectivity.

Cradlepoint deployed dual‑modem LTE routers with multi‑carrier SIMs, SD‑WAN traffic prioritization, and centralized NetCloud management to provide near‑ubiquitous cellular broadband, automatic failover, bandwidth aggregation, and remote configuration. The result: immediate, always‑on connectivity for crews, elimination of outages caused by bandwidth limits, seamless multi‑carrier failover during outages, simplified remote updates and troubleshooting, and reliable support for the 100–120 GB/month workloads.
