4G Failover

In this connected age, consistent and reliable connectivity is critical. Losing your Internet connection at home may be little more than an annoyance, but in a commercial environment, outages cause losses of productivity and profits.

When proactively installed and configured, 4G can be used as a backup when your primary Internet connection fails, protecting you and your business in an emergency.

In some cases, 4G is faster than a typical wired connection and we can implement a solution to provide you with a cost-effective, flexible and reliable Internet connection.

 

All of our data SIM card packages are designed specifically for data use by businesses in routers. If you purchase a SIM card via a network’s retail/online/phone channels you will be bound by those terms and conditions. Often it is specified that the SIM card cannot be used by a business. Although it can be argued that businesses with under ten employees have the same consumer rights as an individual, this doesn’t help when your failover SIM card suddenly gets blocked by the network! Our SIM cards have none of these contractual restrictions. 

As part of us implementing a solution for you, we will:

1. Survey and test to ensure that we are providing you with the correct hardware, network, and equipment location for your building and infrastructure.

2. Understand your network and the type/amount of data flowing to/from the Internet. This controls costs, and makes sure that we are implementing the right solution from the right network.

3. Monitor the connection so that we can detect that your primary connection has failed. Sometimes the failover connection can be fast enough that you might not realise your primary connection is down.
