The real cost of a business internet outage
According to Gartner, the average cost of an enterprise network outage is $5,600 per minute. For a point of sale, every hour offline translates to disabled payment terminals, locked registers, and lost sales.
ARCEP reports that 73% of companies have suffered at least one internet outage in the last 12 months, with an average recovery time of 4 hours. Switching to a personal mobile hotspot is neither reliable, secure, nor compatible with critical applications (VPN, VoIP, payment terminals).
Median's 5G Backup is designed as an industrial resilience architecture: seamless automatic failover, maintained VPN, preserved application QoS, and continuous NOC supervision.
Out of service payment terminals = lost sales
Without a connection, payment terminals are inoperable. On average, 34% of customers leave the store if card payment is impossible.
VoIP telephony cut off
Your IP phone system relies on the internet connection. An outage = no incoming or outgoing calls, lost clients, and a damaged image.
VPN to headquarters interrupted
Field teams lose access to the ERP, CRM, and business tools hosted at HQ. Zero productivity until service is restored.
Blind video surveillance
IP cameras and the alarm system depend on the connection. Without internet, your site is no longer protected.
5-Layer 5G Failover Architecture
Industrial 5G Router
Cradlepoint E3000 or Peplink MAX Transit 5G. Rackable IP67 enclosure, dual SIM with multi-operator aggregation (Orange, SFR, Bouygues, Free). High-gain 4x4 MIMO antennas. Operating temperatures -20°C to +60°C.
Automatic SD-WAN Failover
Fiber outage detection in < 5 seconds. Transparent traffic failover to the 5G link in < 30 seconds. Maintained TCP sessions, auto-reconstructed VPN tunnels, preserved application QoS.
IPSec AES-256 VPN
Permanent site-to-site VPN tunnel to your datacenter or headquarters. AES-256-GCM encryption compliant with ANSSI. Compatible with Active Directory, LDAP, RADIUS. The VPN is automatically rerouted via the 5G link in case of failover.
Application QoS by Flow
Intelligent traffic prioritization: critical flows (payment, VoIP, VPN) have absolute priority on the 5G link. Best-effort flows (browsing, updates) are limited to preserve bandwidth for business applications.
Multi-Operator Aggregation
All 4 national operators are active simultaneously. The router automatically selects the best signal and can aggregate the throughput of multiple operators to achieve a combined downstream flow of up to 1 Gbps.
24/7 NOC Supervision
Our NOC continuously monitors 12 critical indicators (signal, speed, latency, temperature, SIM status). Proactive alerts in case of degradation. Remote intervention in < 15 minutes. Monthly performance report.
