Technologies: 3G / 4G Failover

  • Cellular support for maximum uptime
  • Seamless, automatic failover with traffic prioritization
  • WAN connectivity for remote sites

Cisco Meraki MX Security Appliances support cellular connectivity through 3G and 4G USB modems, maximizing WAN uptime by relying on the cellular connection in case of downtime of primary ISP links.

Failover Status

Cellular support for maximum uptime

3G cellular support includes 1xEV-DO, W-CDMA, and HSPA from major cellular carriers, and 4G cellular support includes LTE and WiMAX.

Seamless, automatic failover with traffic prioritization

In the event of a connectivity failure of the WAN interfaces, traffic is automatically redirected to the 3G/4G cellular modem interface within seconds. The MX's built-in traffic prioritization engine redirects flows and allocates capacity based on your prioritized application needs.

WAN connectivity for remote sites

Use 3G/4G connectivity to connect remote sites that have no Internet connectivity, are limited to slow, high latency lines, or only have prohibitively expensive broadband connectivity options.
