Built for real-world deployment
NetCrate is designed to reduce setup friction and keep teams connected in dynamic field environments.
Resilient connectivity
Supports Starlink and multiple cellular carriers to help maintain connectivity when a single source is unavailable or degraded.
Dual-network WiFi
Separate private and public wireless networks help protect operational traffic while still supporting guest or public access.
Battery-backed operation
Internal LiFePO4 battery supports short-term operation during setup, transport, and temporary power interruptions.
Rapid deployment
Portable, pre-configured hardware helps teams get online quickly without building an ad hoc network stack on site.
Flexible power input
Supports AC and DC power input for field flexibility across a range of deployment environments.
Field-ready design
Self-contained ruggedized packaging, external antennas, and status indicators make the system practical to transport and operate.
Where NetCrate fits
Designed for situations where connectivity needs to be portable, resilient, and fast to deploy.
Disaster response
Support field teams, shelter operations, distribution points, and temporary coordination sites when communications are limited or disrupted.
Field command and coordination
Provide operational connectivity for command staff, logistics, and inter-team coordination in temporary or evolving deployment environments.
Medical and support operations
Help enable communications for field clinics, medical response teams, triage support, and remote coordination workflows.
Search & rescue support
Useful for mobile coordination, mapping, remote communications, and support functions across distributed operational teams.
Temporary sites
Deploy connectivity at pop-up locations, temporary work areas, staging grounds, or remote sites where fixed infrastructure is limited.
Remote operations
Support teams that need a compact portable connectivity capability without building a full networking solution from scratch.

Why teams choose NetCrate
It is built to reduce setup friction and provide a more complete field-ready connectivity capability.
Portable and pre-configured
Instead of assembling multiple devices in the field, teams get a pre-built deployment system in one unit.
Operational separation
Separate private and public networks help preserve bandwidth and simplify access control during deployments.
Flexible ownership model
Organizations can choose self-managed ownership or a managed service structure depending on budget, staffing, and procurement needs.
Good fit for organizations that need:
- Portable connectivity that can move with the mission
- Faster deployment than building a custom field stack on site
- Support for staff and public access from one system
- Connectivity options beyond a single hotspot or single carrier
- Either direct ownership or a supported managed package
