Back-up and continuity

4G and 5G MultiNetwork Connectivity

Low-cost 4G & 5G data multi-network SIMs have solved the affordable reliability conundrum that end-users have faced for years. Broadband connections can be unusable for days with no compensation, while Ethernet circuits cost ten times as much and still offer no guarantee of 100% uptime. A second fixed line is expensive and offers little comfort because it relies on shared infrastructure. If you were climbing a rock face, you wouldn’t attach your second rope to the same piton. Multi-network SIMs further improve SLAs and negate the need for expensive site surveys, while Private APN options steer traffic away from the public internet, considerably improving security.

Continuous Connectivity

In today's all-IP world, maintaining continuous internet connectivity is crucial. Implementing 4G or 5G backup solutions ensures that operations remain uninterrupted during primary connection failures. An ever-increasing number of devices are being connected therefore a resilient network is of utmost importance. A prime example of this is in the retail market. Keeping retailers online to ensure they can continue to transact and collect customer data is vital. 5G backup solutions mean no lost revenue during primary failover.

Reliable Connectivity

MSPs & resellers can capitalise on this demand by offering reliable mobile connectivity to ensure seamless backup during unexpected disruptions. Mission-critical applications such as lift lines requiring battery backup and a move-off PSTN will benefit from 5G backup.

Routers that provide in-built battery backup for power autonomy in the event of a building outage allow businesses to remain online.

Mobile Data

Mobile data provides a separate network path, reducing end-user vulnerability during a DDoS attack. Jola is the first mobile service provider to route all our public fixed IP SIM traffic through Cloudflare to provide best-in-class, always-on, real-time threat protection.  As a result, our partners and their end-users are protected from reputational damage, financial impact and data loss that could otherwise result from the 1000s of cyberattack attempts.

By focusing on mobile data connectivity as a backup strategy, channel companies can deliver effective solutions that minimise downtime, protect against disruptions, and enhance business resilience.
