Quick History of SD-WAN

SD-WAN – 2017’s hottest trend in networking Allows traffic to be routed over the best available circuit

Conditions the traffic to run smoother over a single circuit

Can split traffic on two paths, reassembling the content on the other end

Utilizes all available internet speeds when communicating between branches

Makes an effective failover device when 2+ circuits are installed

Wireless and SD-WANWireless is an effective circuit to add to an SD-WAN circuit

Failover: Wireless is the only network diverse and route diverse circuit

available to most businesses

Second circuit availability

SD-WAN’s load balancing and channel bonding requires two circuits to be

effective.

Wireless is in many cases only realistic fast second internet circuit available vs

slow aging DSL

Traditional Wired Failover Topology

FaaST Failover Topology

Wireless Quality Measures Haven’t Changed

USB modems have small gain antennas

USB handoffs are inherently slower and offer fewer options for traffic control

Industry standard networking often calls for Ethernet handoff for many

applications

USB modems do not offer signal strength readings or signal quality data

USB modems are cheap, flimsy, and tracked onto the side of a device often

breaking, becoming dislodged, or simply failing due to low initial quality

Wireless Quality Measures Haven’t Changed

USB modems are much more likely to NOT pick up LTE-Advanced signal and

run on slower single band LTE

USB modems cannot carrier switch on site like routers can

USB modems have no onboard processors

USB modem reporting portals are crude or non existent showing device

status, traffic passed, and troubleshooting and update capabilities.

A high quality SD-WAN solutions should have high quality wireless solution
