Case Study: Taylor Construction achieves 20x faster 5G site connectivity for next‑gen apps with Cradlepoint

Taylor Construction Breaks Ground on New Technologies with 5G as Foundation

Taylor Construction, a national builder and developer with more than 250 staff, needed fast, flexible connectivity on temporary, hard-to-wire job sites to run next‑gen applications such as mixed‑reality HoloLens, 8K video safety streaming, IoT structural sensors, and real‑time blueprint updates. Wired broadband was too slow to deploy and lacked the bandwidth and agility Taylor required, so the company partnered with Cradlepoint to explore a 5G‑based mobile networking solution.

Cradlepoint implemented its NetCloud Service for Branch with an E3000 5G‑optimized router and ruggedized W2005 5G Wideband Adapter (trialed alongside Telstra’s Enterprise Wireless plan), delivering cloud‑managed, outdoor 5G WAN connectivity that is easy to deploy and move. The Cradlepoint solution provided about 20× the performance of Taylor’s 4G link, enterprise‑grade reliability and IP67‑rated hardware for harsh sites, and a replicable model Taylor will roll out across sites to support bandwidth‑heavy safety, sensing, and visualization tools.
