Covad Wireless Business Continuity Solutions

Don’t Risk Internet Downtime

Network downtime diminishes productivity and eats profits. A survey from Infonetics indicates that 68% of businesses suffer between $1,000 and $10,000 per hour of lost productivity due to network outages.* For some companies, it’s much higher.

Many companies try to protect against downtime by installing two T1s or DSL lines—only to have both lines go down at the same time because they share the same phone company conduits and wiring centers. A redundant Internet solution from Covad Wireless reduces this type of risk.

Two Solutions for Business Continuity

Covad Wireless offers two solutions for businesses seeking high availability and redundancy for your business Internet access needs. Both options give your business increased protection against disruptions due to man-made or natural disasters.

  • Full Redundancy from Covad—Get a Covad Wireless Super-T connection backed by a standard Covad T1 or DSL line.
  • Backup to your Existing T1—Add a Covad Wireless Super-T as a backup to your existing T1 service

Diversify with Covad for Maximum Availability

Covad combines the strengths of our wireless and wireline solutions to provide increased levels of reliability for your business. Covad helps provide business continuity with a T1-class wireless connection backed by a T1 or DSL line:

  • Covad Wireless Super-T. The ideal high-speed primary Internet connection for companies with mission-critical business applications. It’s fast, flexible, and provides T1-class performance and reliability. Covad Wireless Super-T service is based on our fixed wireless technology and is independent of phone company lines and infrastructure.
  • Covad Backup Connection. Our Covad Wireless Super-T connection is backed by your choice of a dedicated Covad Backup T1 or Backup DSL line. The primary service automatically fails over to the redundant backup line to keep your business connected in the event of a service disruption.

Already Have a T1 but Need a Backup?

If you already have a T1 line from another provider, Covad Wireless Super-T service can provide the ideal solution for business continuity and disaster recovery. A Covad Wireless Super-T is independent from the phone company’s network infrastructure and provides full path and network diversity that is not affected by scheduled or emergency outages on your existing T1 line.

With a properly configured dual-WAN firewall (available separately from many network integrators and resellers), adding Covad Wireless Super-T service to your existing standard T1 may also provide automatic failover, bandwidth aggregation, load balancing, and other features.

For more information on both of these business continuity solutions, please see our datasheet.
