Cellular Travel Router

The Cellular Travel Router produces a secure Wi-Fi hotspot from broadband enabled cellular data modems. Connect a data ready cellular phone into the USB host port and the router automatically establishes a connection to your cellular provider’s data network.

The CTR-500 is the world’s most compact router that can support ExpressCard and USB-style cellular modems. Supporting a wide variety of modems and handsets on the Verizon, AT&T, Alltel and Sprint networks, the high-performance router gives users easy Wi-Fi access virtually anywhere. Use the RJ-45 Ethernet port with a wired LAN for shared wireless access.

• 10/100 Ethernet port switchable as WAN or LAN
