Mobile Data Service With Datanet

For branch offices, retail locations, temporary sites and when you just need a reliable and instant alternative to the fixed line carriers then talk to Datanet about our Mobile Data Service with fixed IP’s and private layer 2 options.

The mobile industry (Vodafone etc.) use different terminology to describe what you and I know as a mobile service, terms like “Cellular”, “LTE”, “3G”, “4G”, “5G” all fall under the umbrella of “Mobile Data Service”.

Here at Datanet we have been providing connectivity solutions to business for over 20 years and we come across the same challenges:

It can take a long time to get a copper (SOGEA/FTTC) line installed in new or changed premises. If it’s not a “BT Gold” address or there is a local capacity issue then it can take ages to sort out.

The same is true for fibre circuits: way leaves, duct work, highways closures and construction charges can all lead to very long installation times and the dreaded excess construction charges.

Often we will provide two services into one premise to provide a failover in case the first fails, sometimes the secondary service uses the same ducts and local exchange so both could (not often) get disrupted at the same time and you are left with no service.

A mobile data service is a cell based service over the airwaves and is not dependant on copper or fibre in the ground and so provides a very real alternative to fixed line services. However, the mobile data service you get down your local Vodafone shop is not suitable as a branch office service because, in addition to terms of use restrictions, it comes with a dynamic IP which means that it changes. If you want to connect your branch office securely over VPN then you need a fixed or static IP and Datanet provides this with our mobile data service.

Additionally, we can provide a layer2 private mobile data service so, if you want it, your mobile data service connects only to your company network and not over the public Internet.

Can a Mobile 4G/5G service be an alternative or failover for my fixed line (DSL/FTTC/Fibre)?

Almost any other form of connectivity can be supplemented or substituted by a mobile 4G/5G services and with speeds of up to 750Mbps (at some locations) and uploads typically above 20Mbps. Mobile is a real business alternative to fixed line.
