Network Failover Solutions

Unforeseen challenges such as storms, construction accidents, and networking configuration errors can cause WAN downtime, which is costly and debilitating for organizations that need their technologies, devices, and applications connected to the data center and the cloud at all times. Network failover solutions such as LTE and 5G adapters provide diverse secondary networks. It’s the best way to maintain access to the data and tools that drive efficiency on a daily basis.

“When we deployed Ericsson solutions in our retail stores, the results were immediate. We experienced increased availability as we saw our network take over when the primary transport link went down.”

Flavors of failover

Do network outages have you down? Check out these six strategies for automatic failover using 5G and LTE in stores, offices, and other sites.

SD-WAN + 5G failover

Back up your SD-WAN router with a cellular adapter — supporting dual connectivity between 5G and 4G — that augments bandwidth and provides connection redundancy along with secure OOBM.

Failover strategies for the enterprise

From adding link diversity accommodating traffic spikes, learn the many ways 5G and LTE for Wireless WAN can help prevent downtime.

Hybrid WAN routers

Ericsson’s cellular-enabled branch routers provide complete redundancy in the event of a router failure. With rapid failover to 5G and LTE links, networks remain operational with enterprise-class routing plus security.
