The Cisco Meraki MG51-HW is a powerful 5G cellular gateway engineered to deliver enterprise-grade wireless WAN performance in a compact, rugged form factor. Designed to meet the demands of modern distributed networks, the MG51 enables fast, scalable, and secure connectivity without the need for traditional wired uplinks.
Built with a 5G Sub-6GHz modem and Cat20 LTE failover, the MG51 transforms cellular signals into reliable Ethernet uplinks that power your network core. Whether you need a primary WAN connection in remote areas or resilient failover for mission-critical branches, this gateway ensures business continuity and flexibility.
Its PoE+ and DC power options, combined with IP67-rated durability, allow for optimal placement in nearly any environment. Meraki’s intuitive cloud dashboard makes deployment and ongoing management seamless even across hundreds of locations. From retail chains to smart cities, the MG51 offers a modern solution to modern WAN challenges.
Stratus Information Systems provides full-stack support and configuration guidance for the MG51-HW. We help businesses design robust Meraki cellular uplink solutions that scale efficiently.
Deploying the MG51-HW gives organizations the agility to operate in virtually any location, even where wired connectivity is unavailable or unreliable. With 5G throughput up to 2 Gbps downlink, businesses can run cloud apps, video conferencing, and remote access services smoothly, no matter the site.
This solution also simplifies branch rollouts and pop-up deployments. By eliminating the need for trenching or fiber installs, the MG51 reduces time-to-connect from weeks to hours. And when used as a failover uplink, it protects your operations from costly downtime.
Meraki’s cloud-first architecture means IT teams gain centralized visibility, remote diagnostics, and automated firmware updates. With dual SIM slots and carrier redundancy, you can ensure maximum uptime even when a primary carrier experiences an outage.
The MG51 works seamlessly with Meraki MX security appliances, providing wireless WAN connectivity for SD-WAN, HA topologies, and standard failover scenarios. When paired with MX devices, the MG51 enables automatic VPN creation and policy-based routing without added complexity.
Additionally, Meraki’s unified dashboard allows the MG51 to be managed alongside switches, access points, and cameras all under one pane of glass. This provides a single point of control for network-wide policy enforcement and diagnostics.
The MG51 is also fully compatible with Meraki APIs, enabling custom alerts, reporting, and integration into enterprise NOC/SOC workflows.
To operate the MG51-HW, a Meraki license is required. Licenses include full access to the cloud dashboard, firmware updates, remote management, and support.
