FatPipe SD-WAN’s Pivotal Role in Overcoming Last Mile Connectivity Problems

The last mile or the final segment of line connectivity is crucial because it serves as the link between the network service provider and a networked location, making its performance critical for ensuring a reliable and efficient connection. As per recent studies, 80% of companies utilizing SD-WAN report experiencing performance concerns on the last mile of their network, more so in developing economies due to multiple infrastructure works of highways, telecom, sewage, roads etc. causing frequent fiber cuts.

How FatPipe SD-WAN Overcomes Last Mile Constraints?

FatPipe SD-WAN is an excellent solution for overcoming last mile constraints including handling network disruptions seamlessly –

  • Legacy network protocols struggle to aggregate different last-mile connectivity types like MPLS, Internet, Broadband, LTE, and VSAT. FatPipe SD-WAN’s patented technology seamlessly combines these into a single IP framework, ensuring efficient, secure, and parallel data transmission across disparate networks.
  • FatPipe SD-WAN prevents bottlenecks by adapting on-the-fly for optimal performance, using seamless failover to ensure zero user traffic disruption. This is achieved through patented technology that maintains a single packet copy across redundant lines, ensuring reliable and uninterrupted sessions.
  • FatPipe load balances outbound and inbound traffic across multiple available WAN links using industry-best techniques of MPSEC TM & SmartDNS TM. Many customers have benefitted not only with enhanced resiliency but also with payback period of less than a year by deploying FatPipe SD-WAN.

Benefits of FatPipe SD-WAN in Augmenting Last Mile Connectivity

  • FatPipe SD-WAN minimizes data loss by dynamically selecting the best path for traffic based on real-time network conditions.
  • Legacy networks can’t handle brownouts caused by high latency, packet loss, or jitter on last mile connects which is quite frequent phenomenon in most of the networks. FatPipe SD-WAN sets specific thresholds for these issues, automatically rerouting traffic to a stable line when they are exceeded. Once the link’s quality is restored, FatPipe seamlessly redirects traffic back to the original interface.
  • By optimizing traffic routing and prioritizing critical applications, FatPipe SD-WAN further optimizes latency. This is essential for applications that require real-time communication, such as VoIP and video conferencing.

FatPipe SD-WAN excels in addressing last mile constraints by continuously monitoring and optimizing the signal as it traverses the critical juncture. It can perform dynamic routing, ensuring optimal performance and reliability without the need of co-operation from the ISP. This proactive management guarantees minimal disruption, superior performance, and a seamless user experience, showcasing FatPipe SD-WAN’s superior capability in overcoming last mile connectivity issues.
