Open the location before the wired circuit arrives
Use a staged cellular gateway with the production branch edge so the site begins operating on schedule.

See where cellular becomes the right WAN path.
Explore real-world scenarios covering day-one connectivity, application-aware failover, primary wireless WAN, temporary sites, vehicle networks, and independent recovery access.
START WITH THE ROLEPrimary, alternate, temporary, or recoveryThe purpose of the path determines the architecture and policy.
MEASURE THE ACCESSCarrier, antenna, band, and load matterCellular service must be qualified at the installed location and busy hour.
PROTECT THE WORKRoute the applications deliberatelyHealth, priority, security, and recovery define the usable WAN service.
Technical use-case library
Start with the WAN role and the business event.
Each report connects the radio path to routing, policy, applications, failure behavior, operations, and acceptance.
Keep transactions moving when the primary path fails
Detect application-path failure, move prioritized traffic to cellular, and recover without unstable route flapping.
Read the full use caseUse cellular as the deliberate primary access path
Match carrier service, antenna design, data economics, and lifecycle to small distributed-site workloads.
Read the full use caseStand up a network for a site with an expiration date
Deploy a secure field package for construction, events, pop-ups, and seasonal operations—and remove it cleanly.
Read the full use caseMake the vehicle a managed mobile branch
Combine rugged gateways, roof antennas, multiple carriers, onboard policy, and route-based testing.

Four questions turn an idea into an architecture.
A useful conversation moves quickly from the industry label to the people, devices, movement, environment, application, and risk.
Identify users, devices, machines, vehicles, sensors, and systems—not just a device count.
Map buildings, floors, racks, yards, routes, vehicles, temporary spaces, and environmental constraints.
Understand stationary, portable, roaming, high-speed, indoor-to-outdoor, and always-on behavior.
Define operational impact, safety, lost transactions, delayed work, recovery time, and evidence required.
