Stay Connected: How a 4G Dongle Can Save Your Internet (and Your Wallet!)

Resiliency is key when it comes to delivering the best service to your customers. When it comes to protecting internet connectivity you have a couple of options; you could opt for a 4G router, or for a cheaper alternative you can now select our NEW 4G dongle to offer a backup connection.

Think about it, if the internet connection fails, your customers could be left offline, costing the company money and employees without the all-important tools they need to complete their tasks.

Benefits Include:

  • Cost savings from disruption caused by downtime
  • Simple to install & add to existing solutions
  • Low-cost alternative to 4G routers
  • Create an upselling opportunity for your sales team

Tried & Tested

As with any product we supply, our tech team have been busy testing out the dongle with TP-Link Routers and we’re pleased to share it is compatible with the following devices.

 

EX230v

VR1210v

VS230v

Our testing was completed using a sample of SIMs from across the UK’s leading providers and delivered a seamless service whereby our team recorded the following process.
1. Dongle is inserted to the router
2. Around 30 seconds later, the router reboots itself
3. Once rebooted, the router will power back on with 4G back up
4. When connected, the dongle will automatically detect the APN settings, ready to connect to the internet.

And there you have it – 4G backup for a fraction of the cost!

How to Convert Lifts for the IP World

While the PSTN/ISDN switch off date may have been shifted, it doesn’t mean we should switch off from it too. There’s lots to consider and it’s our job to support you to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible. Read on to discover how we’re helping resellers like you to convert lift phones for the all-IP world.

THE CHALLENGE

Most lift phones are connected to PSTN or analogue lines. In the instance of a power cut, these lines are currently unaffected but what happens when the switch off takes place?

Without the right precautions and equipment in place, lift users could be left unable to alert others of their whereabouts and incapable of making emergency calls.

Now, we are faced with 2 options; replace the lifts entirely, or continue to use the existing equipment; we know which option the Finance Director would opt for!

Replacing a lift to address the switch off is unlikely to get the green light; the costs involved would simply not be economically viable. Offering to adapt the existing equipment, on the other hand could be your golden ticket.

THE SOLUTIONS

There are 3 key components you’re going to need to convert lift phones to IP:

ATA
UPS

Router

Here we’ve outlined 3 different set ups to select from:

1. The Budget Friendly Option

Using a Fanvil GA11 ATA and Mylion UPS, you can ensure users are able to make emergency calls in the event of a power cut. The ATA will convert the analogue phone to IP, while the Mylion UPS will provide back-up power to the connected router and ATA for up to 4 hours.

2. The Mid-Range Option

For those who don’t want to touch the buildings internet connection, why not add VoIP by installing a VoLTE router? With the TP-Link MR6500V and the addition of a 4G SIM card, lifts can be isolated from the rest of the network. Backed up by a Mylion UPS device, you have a robust solution to quickly adapt lifts with minimal wiring required.

3. The High-End Option

For those looking to provide back up for critical communications, we recommend the DrayTek LAC router range. With 4G backup, users will still be able to make calls, even if the exchange is down. Between the router and lift, there will be an ATA to convert the analogue line to SIP. This will then be backed up by a UPS to offer the most resilient solution of them all.

GET STARTED

Our expert technical team are on hand to help you develop the solutions you require. With our project consultancy services, we can help ensure that your solutions will meet expectations prior to installation. Paired with our zero-touch provisioning and SIM Fulfilment Services, we can make sure your installations are a breeze. Talk to us today to discuss your requirements.

When it comes to lifts, there will always be a third-party lift maintenance company involved. Before applying any of these solutions, we would recommend arranging a combined visit with them to coordinate the upgrade together. Who knows, there may be even more business opportunity to be had there too!

Whether there’s a reluctance to upgrade, complex cabling or budget constraints, the following product lines could be the key to these customers:

 The switch off poses the perfect opportunity to upgrade outdated systems. We offer a range of solutions for those looking to explore different options:

The Cross-Sell

But that’s not all! For all types of customers, there are some crucial considerations that they may not have thought about when deciding how to proceed with the switch-off:

 Routers and APs

Do they have the necessary hardware to support the new VoIP devices and ensure comprehensive coverage?

UPS Devices

Are their critical systems adequately protected and capable of functioning during power outages or emergencies?

IP Alerting

Have they considered the need for an IP alerting system to replace their existing one? Many overlook the connection between their phone lines and alerting systems.

Access Control & Intercoms

If they haven’t updated these systems recently, they may soon find them becoming obsolete with the switch-off.

With our range of technical services and support, these items can become a simple cross-sell – we can even arrange the installation for you. Or why not let us train your team or provide remote installation support. We’ve got everything you need to seize the opportunities that the switch-off will bring, ensuring a smooth transition for both you and your customers.
