What is a Wireless WAN?
Benefits of Wireless WAN for Business
Benefit #1. Connection everywhere
With flexibility at its core, wireless WAN can connect an entire business from a router without the lead time and cost of deploying a wired line. Possible connections include remote sites, backup connections, point-of-sale, IoT sensors, signage, pop-up locations, and vending machines, to mention but a few. Wireless WAN services can easily connect large or multi-location businesses on a global scale.
Benefit #2. Cheap and highly flexible solution
Wired connections are needed for many use cases but are often expensive and have long deployment lead times. Wireless WAN deployments can eliminate the lead time for connecting a site or device and can connect from virtually anywhere in the world. Conforming to today’s fast-paced business landscape, you don’t need to wait several weeks to months to install and connect your remote business locations. With wireless WAN solutions, you can quickly set up and scale your network in a matter of minutes. Say goodbye to unnecessary downtime, revenue loss, and poor customer service. Embrace the new world of continuous operations, endless scalability, new revenue opportunities, and multi-location communication.
Benefit #3. Security and privacy
As LTE and 5G wireless WAN solutions can be routed without physical barriers, it begs the question: “Is WWAN safe to use?” The short answer is yes. The connectivity is provided by the mobile network operators, and security capabilities for WWANs include private APNs and SIM card authentication protocols. Troubleshooting your network signal and choosing the best LTE and 5G network provider is our bread and butter at UCtel. Don’t join the bandwagon; talk to us before, not after.
