Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) is a networking technology designed to optimise and manage wide-area networks (WAN) performance. Unlike traditional WAN solutions, which rely on expensive dedicated lines, SD-WAN uses software to dynamically route traffic over the best available internet connection, whether broadband, 4G, 5G, or satellite. By making the network more flexible, cost-effective, and easier to manage, SD-WAN allows businesses to ensure their internet connectivity remains high-performance and secure. With the rise of cloud-based applications and the need for reliable remote access, SD-WAN has become essential for businesses seeking to modernise their network infrastructure.
How SD-WAN is Used
SD-WAN is primarily used by businesses that require reliable, secure, and high-performance internet connections for various applications, such as cloud computing, streaming, bonding remote office access, and real-time data transmission. By integrating multiple internet connections (such as 4G, 5G, and broadband), SD-WAN allows businesses to optimise their network performance, ensuring that critical applications have the bandwidth they need while providing a backup solution in case of a connection failure. SD-WAN is particularly useful for organisations with multiple locations or remote teams, as it enables centralised management of the network, simplifying monitoring, troubleshooting, and configuration changes.
Key Features of SD-WAN PRO by Anvil Mobile
SD-WAN Pro is our newly released SD-WAN solution. It includes our SD-WAN Pro box with state-of-the-art internet failover and bonding technology and a real-time online management platform.
SD-WAN Pro can bond up to six different internet legs, achieving download/upload speeds ranging from 100Mbps to 500Mbps. We have designed an easy-to-manage, high-quality, affordable solution that enables companies worldwide to benefit from SD-WAN technology.
Anvil Mobile’s SD-WAN PRO offers several key features that make it a standout solution for businesses seeking high performance, uninterrupted internet connectivity, and enhanced security.
Multi-Connection Bonding
One of the most powerful features of SD-WAN PRO is its ability to bond multiple internet connections. Whether it’s 5G, 4G, Ethernet, or satellite services, SD-WAN PRO allows businesses to combine these connections into a single, unified high-speed, low-latency internet connection. This bonding capability ensures companies can leverage the combined bandwidth of all their internet connections, resulting in optimal performance even during peak usage. This feature ensures that businesses that rely on constant, high-speed internet, such as those in media or event streaming, have the connectivity needed to support their operations.
Seamless Failover
SD-WAN PRO ensures that businesses remain connected at all times with its seamless failover feature. If one connection fails, the system automatically switches to the next available connection without disrupting operations. This failover functionality is essential for businesses that cannot afford downtime, such as those that depend on remote access, VPNs, or VoIP telephony services. By automatically switching to backup internet services like 4G or 5G, SD-WAN PRO ensures that business-critical applications remain operational, regardless of any failures in the primary connection.
Centralised Management
Managing a network can be complex, especially when using multiple internet connections. SD-WAN PRO simplifies this process with its centralised management platform. This feature allows businesses to monitor, configure, and optimise their network connections from a singluar, user-friendly interface. With real-time tracking, companies can quickly identify performance issues, adjust settings, and troubleshoot problems, all from one location. This centralised approach makes network management more efficient and reduces the time spent on manual adjustments, freeing up IT resources for other critical tasks.
Unified IPv4 IP Address
Traditional failover solutions often encounter issues when switching between internet connections, mainly involving different IP addresses. With SD-WAN PRO, this challenge is eliminated, as the solution unifies all internet connections under a single IPv4 IP address. This ensures that all external communications, including remote access, VPNs, and VoIP services, remain uninterrupted. The consistency of the public IP address simplifies network management. It ensures that employees and remote users can continue to access the network without any connectivity issues, even during failover events.
Enhanced Security
Security is a top priority for businesses that manage sensitive information. SD-WAN PRO has robust security features that protect data as it travels across the network. The solution includes end-to-end encryption and secure tunnelling protocols, ensuring that all data transmitted between locations and devices remains safe from potential threats. This is particularly important for businesses in industries such as finance, healthcare, or retail, where customer data and financial information protection is paramount.
Flexible Deployment
SD-WAN PRO is versatile, supporting a wide range of internet services, including traditional broadband, 4G, 5G, satellite, and wireless connections. This flexibility allows businesses to choose the best internet service based on their specific needs and ensures that they can scale up or down as required. Whether a company is expanding its operations or needs to adapt to changing network conditions, SD-WAN PRO offers the flexibility to integrate new internet services quickly and efficiently. This makes it an ideal solution for businesses with varying connectivity requirements or those operating across multiple regions.
