Predictable LTE for sites and failover

Fixed Wireless Access is LTE with a predictable monthly profile. It’s commonly used for fibre failover and branch connectivity where fibre lead times are too long, or where you want continuity without a usage-based model.

Why Fixed Wireless Access

Built for continuity

Use it as a backup path so the business stays usable when fibre is down or degraded.

  • Common companion to Business Fibre or Enterprise Fibre
  • Keeps core operations online during outages
  • Works well with SD-WAN in multi-site environments
  • Better continuity posture than single-link dependency

Predictable and supportable

It’s a clean LTE model when you want predictable monthly expectations.

  • Sensible fit for branches with known patterns
  • Less admin overhead than usage-based models
  • Feasibility confirmed before rollout
  • Optional design guidance for failover behaviour

Common use cases

Fibre failover

A backup link to keep POS, email, and operations running during outages.

Branch connectivity

A practical primary link for branches where fibre timelines don’t work.

Continuity for voice

Support voice continuity when the primary path fails (design dependent).

Multi-site designs

Works cleanly with SD-WAN for predictable failover and routing behaviour.
