With a wireless network connection, the customers business can seamlessly and immediately switch from a disrupted wired connection to an always-on, low-cost standby network connection. This is the optimal situation for distributed connections. No wiring is required. A wired solution is often a cost-prohibitive choice that provides little improvement in uptime. Wired lines are usually laid in the same locations, so they will likely experience the same environmental risks – and potential damage – from weather, accidents and other disruptive factors that caused the loss of connectivity in the first place.
