Disaster Recovery and failover

Disaster Recovery and failover
From an Internet Connectivity perspective failover is the ability to maintain connectivity / business operations when one (or more) communication links fail so that processes and end-user experiences are disrupted as little as possible. In the case of loss of a mobile network, or a fixed line or satellite link due to technical failure or signal path obstruction failover can ensure continuous connectivity. In mission critical situations where continuo...

Low Earth Orbit Satellite Connectivity

Low Earth Orbit Satellite Connectivity
A LEO satellite is a satellite that orbits the Earth usually at an altitude between 160 - 2000 kilometers.  LEO satellites are small and usually more than one is required in a network to provide internet coverage. Although LEO satellites aren’t as good as fibre in terms of speed and latency, LEOS offer a quick way of providing internet connectivity in remote and other difficult to serve locations. They can offer good download speeds (100 – 300Mbps), ...

Wifi, cellular or fibre?

Wifi, cellular or fibre?
Wifi, fibre, and cellular – are all technologies designed to variously deliver connectivity at a location (fibre, cellular, satellite) and distribute connectivity within that location (wi-fi, Private Mobile Network). What is Wi-Fi? Wifi is a well-established set of standards for providing wireless LAN (Local Area Network) functionality over a limited area. Low cost, high speed (especially 5GHz band, Wi-Fi 6) but limited range (10s of metres), frequency b

5 top tips to better connectivity

5 top tips to better connectivity
What is ‘good’ connectivity? Good connectivity is a reliable internet connection with high enough bandwidth and low enough latency (lag time) to support your work group and the applications they rely on. Higher speed improves the user experience in terms of page load times, upload and download speeds. Low latency (minimal time to get a response from a remote server) is key to acceptable cloud service / thin client use. ‘Thin client’ is a computer that run

Cellular and wifi: What is the difference between cellular and wifi?

Cellular and wifi: What is the difference between cellular and wifi?
What is the difference between cellular and wifi? Cellular and wifi are both methods to connect to the internet via radio technology. These technologies can compete and complement each other. The main difference between WiFi &  cellular networks is that WiFi uses micro and radio waves to provide high-speed data transfer to different computing devices, and they can communicate with each other. A cellular network uses mobile towers to enable mobile com

Mimo: What is Mimo?

Mimo: What is Mimo?
What is Mimo? Mimo is an aerial technology and stands for multi input multi output. The way the mobile industry supports increased speed between 4G, 4G+, 4G++ & 5G is to broadcast the same signal over several radio channels. The mobile networks are splitting up the available spectrum into separate channels & broadcasting your data over several channels at the same time. The reason that is faster is that it avoids blockages – individual radio ch
