Solution

Our Solution

First, a Virtual Site Walk allows our engineers to:

Evaluate the radio frequency (RF) environment to determine the ideal network and the equipment placement for each location.
Use our proprietary analysis tools to rate factors such as: population density, work area, construction materials, surrounding businesses and geographical features such as lakes, rivers or unusual terrain that can affect the quality of the RF signal.
Consult our database of more than 16,000 installations to profile the RF environment and determine which network will perform best.

Next, trained specialists go on site to install equipment and optimize connections, a process which generally takes less than 3 hours. We work with your IT team to connect the gateway to your existing network infrastructure, and test the quality of the connection to ensure optimal performance of your business applications.

Once your network is connected, our cloud platform monitors the performance of each link and displays a color-coded, network map designating each link as Optimal, Good, Fair or Access Failure.

The system alerts your IT team and our US-based Help Desk whenever a link score falls below Good, permitting early identification and resolution of issues, often before users detect an issue.
If a change in the RF environment requires re-optimizing the link, we work with your team to schedule a convenient maintenance window.
Your team can get summary and detailed historic and projected data traffic, utilization patterns and billing data on demand through the customer portal.

Connectivity

Sierra Wireless Managed Connectivity Solutions ensure the best quality connection and coverage for each location by partnering with U.S. based leading mobile network operators. We provide the layer of expertise between your business and the carriers, evaluating the performance of each tower to optimize transmission quality. Our network platform provides a comprehensive view of your entire wireless network through a single pane of glass, and will notify you if any changes occur.

Because we pool data across cellular networks, isolated outages are often covered by unused capacity from other locations, minimizing overage charges and saving you money. Our network engineers will work with you to implement a failover design to mitigate downtime risk and if required will interface with the carrier to quickly resolve issues.
