CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router
ARC CBA850 BB1-0850LP4-N0N model include an embedded LTE Advanced Category 4 4G LTE modem. The LP4 modem supports SIM-Based Auto-Carrier selection so there is only one model for North America.
Signal Improvement Solutions (Cellular) |
CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router includes 2 antenna ports to attach external cellular antennas. See below for different options for high gain and high performance indoor and outdoor antennas to improve the signal strength and indoor coverage. Additionally, see below for RF bidirectional amplifiers/ distributed antenna systems/ repeaters/ small cells to further improve indoor coverage without directly attaching pigtail/ cable the device. |
Pigtail for External Cellular Antenna |
Cellular Repeaters/ Bi-Directional Amplifiers |
Because the CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router device has an external antenna port you could use the high gain external antenna kits above to boost your signal. However, if your outdoor signal is very weak, or you require a very long cable run to get from the outdoor antenna to the device (long runs lead to large signal loss) consider using an RF bidirectional amplifier/ repeater suitable for the supported bands and cellular operator to boost your indoor coverage: LTE Antenna Boosters/ RF Bidirectional Amplifiers/ Repeaters/ Relays |
Customize your solution |
STEP 1: Determine what frequency bands your operator uses here, then click on the frequency band link to view the best ranked cellular antennas compatible with the frequency band that both your device and your cellular operator supports. Your CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router operates on these frequency bands: LTE Band 2, LTE Band 4, LTE Band 5, LTE Band 13, LTE Band 17.
STEP 2: Determine the cable length you need from the outdoor antenna to the CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router and configure your length here (select N-Male on both ends)
STEP 3: Determine if you need a lightning protection device. If you do, you will need a jumper cable.
STEP 4: Order the pigtail for your modem below:
STEP 5: If the pigtail's Connector 2 is FME-F you will need an N-Female/FME-F adapter to mate to the N-Male cable in step 2. Alternatively, select an N-Male/FME-M cable in step 2 above (more expensive and less re-usable) to avoid requiring this adapter.

Signal Improvement Solutions (Wi-Fi) |
CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router is not listed as having an external Wi-Fi antenna port in the RFWEL Wireless Device Information Database. This may be either because the device really does not have an external antenna port or RFWEL Wireless Device Specialists have not confirmed the existence and utility of such ports. Please contact us for the latest updates or if you believe this device contains external antenna ports and you would like to learn more about compatible signal improvement solutions. |
WiFi Repeaters/ Extenders/ Relays |
Because the CradlePoint BB5-0850LP4-N0N NetCloud Branch LTE Router is not listed as having an external antenna port, you would need to use a wireless network extender or repeater to increase the WiFi signal coverage |
