Business Continuity Solutions

Keeping a Business Online 100% Of The Time
The only reliable alternative for avoiding network downtime from a localized natural disaster to the back-hoe next door is a high-speed satellite connection. To maintain a satellite connection, only AC power is required, even if it is from a generator. Our performance iDirect systems can deliver your network a blazing 5Mbps down and 2Mbps up.

Transparent Connectivity
If a fail event happens, the switch to satellite will be instant and does not require user intervention (save for providing power if power is lost). When the primary connection returns, the satellite connection reverts back to sleep mode. Consider On-Demand Satellite a Network Uptime Insurance policy.

Simple Integration
Ground Control will help you integrate our satellite system into your existing network. The purchase of a failover router may not be necessary since many company routers have the ability to perform a failover to a secondary network connection (Dual WAN).

24-Hour Monitoring & Notification
The instant the satellite network goes offline (or back online), an email or SMS message can be generated and sent to any party to inform of the Network outage. Otherwise, with the transparent nature of the satellite network, you may never know your primary provider is down and needs to be contacted for repair.

Installation and Maintenance Support
Our nationwide base of field certified technicians will install and maintain the satellite equipment for long term reliability. Our 24 x 7 online support department is also available should immediate assistance be required.
