Cradlepoint 170594-000 Verizon Ruggedized 2FF SIM Card
Overview
The Cradlepoint 170594-000 is a Verizon-branded ruggedized SIM card in 2FF (mini-SIM) form factor, designed for integration with Cradlepoint mobile broadband gateways and routers deployed in field and remote environments. This SIM operates on Verizon 4G LTE networks and is optimized for installations where standard SIM cards experience vibration, temperature swings, or physical stress. Use it to provision cellular backhaul for Cradlepoint WWAN devices in mobile towers, remote warehouses, vehicle mounts, or outdoor cabinets where reliability and uptime drive the deployment.
Compatibility
The 170594-000 is compatible with Cradlepoint WWAN devices that support Verizon networks and 2FF SIM slots. Before provisioning, verify your target Cradlepoint router model accepts 2FF form factor and is unlocked for Verizon or pre-carrier-provisioned. Confirm slot availability in your device's technical specifications — some Cradlepoint models support larger 3FF or nano-SIM formats instead. The ruggedized design ensures mechanical stability in vibration-prone mounting scenarios; standard SIM cards may loosen or fail under continuous motion.
Installation Notes
SIM activation and service plan provisioning are handled through Verizon directly — not through Cradlepoint. Insert the card into the 2FF slot on your Cradlepoint device once the router is unlocked and provisioned for Verizon. Power on the device and verify LTE signal acquisition via the device's management interface or status LEDs. Do not force the card into the slot; slight resistance is normal, but excessive force indicates misalignment. Temperature operation range and environmental durability are inherited from the host Cradlepoint device — the SIM itself is rated for the ruggedized form factor's enhanced mechanical tolerance.
