Case Study: Mannington Mills Inc. achieves reliable, scalable network continuity and faster site deployments with Cradlepoint

Mannington Mills Flooring Lays Strong Network Foundation with Cradlepoint

Mannington Mills Inc., one of the world’s largest flooring manufacturers, needed more reliable, scalable network connectivity as it expanded retail and warehouse locations. Traditional wired/Telco lines were expensive, slow to provision, and left sites vulnerable to outages, so the company evaluated Cradlepoint and its routing devices with integrated 3G/4G for on-demand failover and primary connectivity.

Cradlepoint deployed easy-to-install 3G/4G routers to provide wireless WAN failover and, in some cases, primary connections—allowing Mannington Mills Inc. to open sites faster, eliminate some DSL lines, and restore service the same day after a fiber cut. The Cradlepoint solution reduced costs and dependency on Telcos, simplified scalability for IT, and kept critical warehouse and retail operations online during outages.
