Mobile primary or backup connectivity

4G/5G Fixed Wireless Access

A managed router using 4G or 5G mobile service for rapid site connectivity, temporary access or automatic failover when the fixed circuit is unavailable.

Resilience · Managed by SCG Solutions

  • Primary, temporary or failover service options
  • Fast deployment where a usable mobile signal exists
  • Network, antenna and router selected for the actual site

We'll confirm the address-level availability, estimated performance, installation requirements, service commitments and current commercial terms.

Technical profile

The profile below explains the role of the technology. The exact carrier product, bandwidth and contractual commitment are confirmed after an address and requirements check.

Access technology
Fixed wireless router using an available 4G or 5G mobile network, with indoor or externally mounted antenna choices where appropriate
Bandwidth profile
Variable rather than guaranteed; throughput depends on network, signal, spectrum, router placement, building materials and local demand
Service level
Managed monitoring and support can be included, but radio performance is different from a committed fixed-line bandwidth guarantee
Resilience
Strongest as a path independent of the fixed cable route; dual-SIM or multi-network design can reduce reliance on one mobile operator
Installation
Coverage check followed by an on-site signal assessment where resilience is critical; the router can often be deployed before a fixed line
Network design
Automatic failover and recovery policies should preserve essential traffic first, with data allowance, addressing and VPN behaviour validated

Workload and risk

Where this connection fits

  • Businesses that need a secondary path independent of the cable entering the building
  • New, temporary, rural or construction sites that need service before fixed connectivity is available

A useful proposal needs detail

What shapes the quote

  1. 1Exact location, indoor and outdoor coverage, available networks and antenna position
  2. 2Whether the service is primary, temporary or failover and which applications must survive
  3. 3Router, SIM, data usage, IP addressing, VPN and automatic failover requirements

Deployment and resilience planning

The circuit is only one part of a working service. SCG Solutions coordinates the availability check, carrier order, site access, router and security configuration, testing, monitoring and handover.

Survey and order

Validate the full address, carrier route, construction risk, wayleave and realistic delivery window.

Network configuration

Prepare addressing, firewall, traffic policy, monitoring and the handoff into the existing LAN and Wi-Fi.

Failover test

Prove what moves to the secondary path, how long recovery takes and how traffic returns to normal.

Ongoing ownership

Give the business one support route across the managed circuit and the equipment around it.

Build the wider service around managed business Wi-Fi, network cabling, cyber security and business continuity.
