Failed UK networking vendor Cambium set to turn off its cloudy management portal
Quits enterprise networking hardware business, tells users to install on-prem software ASAP
UK-based networking hardware vendor Cambium Networks has entered administration, signaling the potential end of its cloud management services. The company had struggled with unreliable financial reports and was recently delisted from the NASDAQ stock exchange. In May, the company announced the layoff of 260 employees, or 53.6% of its workforce, without offering severance.
Administrators have now taken over, citing the end of Wi-Fi access points, firewalls, and switches production. Despite the challenges, the company claims the fixed wireless broadband business will resume. However, the management plane for Cambium's products, cnMaestro Cloud, is expected to close by October 1, 2026. The company encourages users to install the on-prem version of cnMaestro immediately.
Users will need to act quickly to maintain their kit's manageability, as the software will become limited once the trial period expires. The future of Cambium customers remains uncertain, highlighting the risks of relying on cloud services.
