Introducing BeaconEDGE™: Business-Class Wireless Internet Built for Organizations Like Yours
Mobile Beacon’s BeaconEDGE™ Wireless Business Internet delivers affordable, high-performance connectivity on America’s largest 5G network. Designed specifically for nonprofits, schools, and libraries.
For 15 years, Mobile Beacon has provided affordable broadband to nonprofits, schools, and libraries. Today, we are expanding that mission.
BeaconEDGE Wireless Business Internet is our new business-class 5G/LTE connectivity service designed specifically for mission-driven organizations that need reliable, affordable internet without the cost or complexity of fiber.
Whether you need a primary connection, a reliable backup to prevent downtime, or fast internet for a remote or temporary site, BeaconEDGE delivers outstanding performance.
What Makes BeaconEDGE™ Different
Unlike consumer or small-business wireless plans, BeaconEDGE is designed to function like a true WAN (Wide Area Network) circuit. It supports static IP addresses, integrates with enterprise routers, firewalls, and VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks), and is fully compatible with security standards, including RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) and eduroam (education roaming network). This enables education networks to extend authenticated access beyond campus fiber without disrupting active workflows.
For IT directors and network administrators, it means BeaconEDGE integrates seamlessly into your existing infrastructure without compromise.
Key Features:
- Flat-rate, unlimited pricing: No overages, no surprises, consistent budgeting
- Rapid deployment: Activate in minutes, not months; no construction, no fiber runs
- Static IP support: Essential for compliance and security applications
- Compatible devices: Mobile Beacon’s BeaconSIM™ option works with the routers, modems, hotspots, tablets and laptops you own
- America’s largest and fastest 5G network: Powered by T-Mobile’s nationwide infrastructure
The Versatility to Support Your Unique Needs
BeaconEDGE is designed with the flexibility required for our rapidly evolving digital world. Among the mission-critical applications it can support are:
Primary Connectivity
For organizations seeking affordable primary connection or operating where fiber is unavailable, too costly, or slow to deploy, BeaconEDGE provides a dependable primary internet solution. This service can be deployed and activated quickly bypassing the typical burdens of construction, trenching, and infrastructure permits. It’s a strategic alternative for rural campuses, historic buildings where internal cabling is impractical, and community sites in underserved areas where traditional wireline infrastructure may never arrive.
Backup, Mobile, and Network Durability
Even organizations with existing fiber rely on BeaconEDGE as a secondary connection. If your primary link goes down, BeaconEDGE automatically keeps operations running. This is especially critical for healthcare providers, schools, and libraries, where any downtime directly impacts the people you serve.
Remote and Temporary Sites
Whether it’s community events, field research, disaster recovery operations, mobile healthcare programs or temporary testing centers, BeaconEDGE goes where fiber cannot. It provides reliable broadband anywhere your organization operates, without needing any permanent infrastructure.
Service Plans Designed for Your Needs
BeaconEDGE offers multiple service tiers to fit different needs and budgets:
Business Unlimited — $25/month: Full unlimited data, no caps, no speed restrictions, and a static IP available. If your organization needs maximum performance at one flat, predictable rate, this is your plan. (Requires address eligibility check.)
Business 300 — $15/month : Get 300 GB of full-speed data each billing period, with reduced speeds after that. Includes a productivity filter, static IP, and an optional Dual SIM expansion to double your monthly capacity. This plan is a great fit for organizations with locations not currently eligible for Business Unlimited Service, moderate usage needs, or tighter budgets.
Mobile Unlimited — $10/month: Built for teams that are always on the move. Unlimited 5G data for mobile applications, with a static IP available when you need it.
BeaconSIM: Business-Class Performance for Your Current Hardware
Already have routers, hotspots, tablets, or laptops without active connectivity? Don’t replace them, upgrade them instead. BeaconSIM lets you add business-class 5G connectivity to your existing devices with a simple SIM card swap. Same hardware, better performance, lower costs.
For organizations that need new hardware, Mobile Beacon also offers fixed routers with Wi-Fi 6 technology to support high-density connectivity across your facility.
Why BeaconEDGE and Why Mobile Beacon
BeaconEDGE is built on T-Mobile’s largest and fastest 5G network, delivering performance organizations can depend on. But the difference between BeaconEDGE and a commercial wireless plan goes beyond the network.
Mobile Beacon is a nonprofit. Every subscription directly supports expanded connectivity for mission-driven organizations nationwide. When your organization chooses BeaconEDGE, you are not funding shareholder dividends; you are funding more access for the communities and people who need it most.
For organizations that have relied on Mobile Beacon’s mobile hotspot service for years, BeaconEDGE extends that same mission into a full business-class connectivity solution…One that grows with YOU.
