Business Continuity Strategies using Wireless 4G Why Wireless 4G for Business Continuity Natural Disasters Emergency Networks Speed of Recovery Wireless Data Service Providers u@lizes portable towers to restore service quickly. On the other hand, wired networks can take weeks or months to restore aIer a natural disaster. DSL/Cable Outages Redundancy = Availability 99.99% Availability Typical wired down@me is 1.5%. Using wireless 3G/4G as a redundant internet connec@on can reduce average down@me by a factor of 10. Redundant wired+wireless connec@ons can improve availability to 99.99% Lengthy Installa4on Time = Money Open-‐for-‐Business Many store/branch “grand openings” are delayed due to scheduling issues with wired internet installa@ons. Wireless 3G/ 4G can accelerate “open-‐for-‐business” dates by 4 to 6 weeks, elimina@ng lost opportunity costs of $50k to $100k.
