5Gstore Top 10 Products of 2023

The ranking of 5Gstore’s premier products is determined by a blend of their popularity, the quantity of customer reviews received, and the average rating bestowed by customers. Several perennial favorites from this year’s winners, such as the IP Switch Dual Outlet and Cradlepoint IBR600C, have consistently made appearances on our “Top Products” lists in previous years. On the other hand, newcomers to the list for this year include the Digi IX10 and the Sierra Wireless RV55.

Logistics Network Updates

5Gstore has been actively working to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to the ongoing supply chain issues due to numerous factors including the Sierra Chip Shortage.

We want to say THANK YOU to our customers for working with us during these challenging times and that we look forward to continuing to exceed each need in every way possible!

In the last 12+ months we have continued to see the impacts and have made the necessary pivotal changes to continue being able to keep business as usual for our continued and new customers.

Pivotal Changes For Staying Ahead:

  • Elevated Stock Levels:
    • Increased stocking levels to support all consumer and business needs.
  • Proactive Planning:
    • Strategically working with our vendors/customers to plan for their current and future needs.
  • Communication:
    • Keeping everyone informed on where things stand and advising appropriately so everyone can effectively plan and prepare.
  • Decreased Lead Times:
    • Due to the stock increases AND close planning with our customers – we have been able to decrease lead times on key products.

The day to day operations for all continue to sort through the challenges faced even beyond the supply shortages – like Staffing Shortages. Both Manufacturers and Carriers are dealing with the impacts from this and working to manage the impacts this has had on the lead times for fulfilling orders.

A key component for staying ahead is being informed and we would like to share with you some of the latest feedback and insight we have. 

Important Insight:

Sierra Wireless

We are starting to slowly see  stock availability for the Sierra products and backorders being fulfilled from the previous year. As they continue to push forward to get ahead, it will be important to stay on top of what is available now. 

Cradlepoint

Lead times are consistently fluctuating week to week – it is important you know how to plan accordingly for the more popular items as well as for the items that might be as common – replacement power supplies, spare antennas etc. 

Peplink

Lead times vary across the products due to component shortages – all stock is reviewed constantly for those that are facing these impacts, and those that might face the impacts in the near future. Although the lead times are extended on some of the popular products – we would like to highlight products that are readily available! 

Inseego

Inseego has been leading the way for 25 years by creating entirely new types of devices, including the world’s first mobile hotspots for leading wireless operators, technology titans, business users, government agencies, and consumers. 

Digi 

Since 1985, Digi International Inc. (Digi) has been a pioneer in wireless communication, forging the future for connected devices and responding to the needs of the people and enterprises that use them.  

Panorama

Panorama has had some extended lead times due to key changes being made internally to better serve the demand. In addition to this, there are some new 5G capable products out now to help you future proof! We are happy to start seeing the positive impacts from these changes.

Mobile Mark

Mobile Mark has done an exceptional job to keep their lead times without impact until more recently. The lead times have been extended by around 1 week on average, depending on the product and quantity needed, but with proper planning we have been able to avoid that impacting 5Gstore and our customers!

Poynting

Poynting has done a great job and planning for their stock accordingly to avoid delays when possible – Lead Times have stayed pretty consistent over the last 12+ months due to the combined efforts between Poynting and 5Gstore.

What Role Do YOU Play in YOUR SUCCESS?

Here are some key tips in staying ahead of the curve with 5Gstore

  • Knowing Stock Availability:
    • Items on our site that are readily available will have that easily displayed – Look for the “In Stock” Green Check Mark that indicates this!
  • Secure your place with stock:
  • Bring in your orders early:
    • Plan for orders now that would normally be reviewed in a 30-60-90 day manner.
  • Future Proof:
    • Work with us to be aware of the latest options and alternatives that are readily available!
