Anyone have Lutnick or Trump’s phone number?  If the govt can take a stake in 
Intel, why not Cambium?

I've heard from several US employees who got walking papers Friday. No notice 
except an email saying they were going into Administration in the UK and then 
all access severed, no severance, may not even get their last paycheck. They 
are as in the dark as we are at this point. It's sad really. Reminiscent  of 
Nortel.

I have seen the EU/UK and  Australia staff have been laid off but so far have 
not seen anything about the North American staff yet.  We are a very large user 
of the wifi AP line and have emailed all of the North American staff that we 
deal with asking about this and moving to an on site controller. So far I have 
not heard anything yet.

There have been multiple employees on LinkedIn and Facebook about their 
departure on Friday\Saturday.

I've seen Facebook posts about the cloud services continuing, but without much 
detail or citation.

The most immediate concern would be if cnMaestro cloud goes dark, since CBRS 
and 6 GHz APs need it to function. The SAS vendors and Qualcomm for AFC would 
also need to keep getting paid, although I’m guessing they would keep their 
side running and wait for the dust to settle. 



cnMaestro is a cloud service, even in a worst case scenario, you’d think 
someone would keep it running. Hell, I can still buy license keys for Exalt 
radios, and they’ve been gone for years. 



I would also have to ask where is Vector Capital in all this? Aren’t they still 
majority owners, even after the public offerings?

It seems to be RIP for Cambium Networks, born in 2011 (when the Canopy/Orthogon 
products were spun off from Motorola, who had started selling those around 
2002) to 2026. As well as its acquisitions Orthogon / PipingHot Networks and 
Xirrus.

When I started in the WISP industry around 20 years ago, I found their 
products' good engineering, reliability and scalability a wonderful asset to 
help build a WISP. Since that time the products have increased greatly in 
bandwidth capability and the company's products and its hard-working employees 
have been a big contributor of my work life. 



Unless something magical comes in to save them, this will be then end and a big 
loss for the industry and a big reconsideration for our networks.
