How can I protect my business from power outages?

A man smiles because his broadband connection is equipped with fail-safe protection.

Success factor: failure protection

A network failure can hit any business hard. A multitude of disruption scenarios are inevitable, and a call to the fault hotline is often unavoidable. Find out how you can protect your business from landline disruptions here.

Which industries are affected when the landline network is disrupted?

Due to the steady increase in digital applications in everyday business life, a fail-safe network connection is relevant in almost every industry. Here are a few examples:

  • Retail: In order to enable card payments at the checkout, the terminal must always be online. Without an internet connection, EC-Cash payments will not work.
  • Delivery services & catering: Whether it's running an online shop for orders or digital cash registers and online merchandise management, none of this would be possible without the internet.
  • Companies with production facilities: Production facilities are often monitored and controlled via the internet. If the connection fails, production may have to be stopped.
  • Administration: A wide variety of software systems now require an internet connection, as data is no longer stored locally on a device but is uploaded to a server or the cloud.
  • Pharmacies and doctors: Due to the new e-prescription system, doctors and pharmacies must be permanently online in order to issue or redeem prescriptions online.

How does the connection with fail-safe protection work?

The Business DSL Premium connection combines DSL with a free mobile phone component. In the event of a landline fault, the business router establishes a mobile high-speed connection via the 5G backup module and automatically informs the Telekom service about the fault, which is rectified within 8 hours. The advantage: business applications continue to run smoothly at all times.

Incidentally, affected companies will not notice anything, as the SIM card in the backup module provides unlimited data volume until the landline network is back up and running.

In addition, all Business DSL Premium packages include a powerful business router (rental). On-site installation service for the router and the 5G backup module round off the offer and make the Premium tariffs an all-round carefree package.
