SD-WAN Providers: Network Solutions for Your Company

What Managed SD-WAN Can Do For Your Business

Tailored Solutions

We work with several SD-WAN technologies so you can tailor your network solution to your business needs. Bring your own broadband, use our own fast connectivity, or leverage a combination of both.

5 Guarantees

Enjoy the most comprehensive service guarantees in the industry when you purchase SD-WAN from Fusion Connect. 100% Uptime, free Upgrades, locked rates, and customer satisfaction to name a few.

Ease of Management

Managed SD-WAN means that from design, to implementation, to ongoing network management, our 100% U.S.-based technical experts are working for you 24/7. Free up your teams to focus on your important business priorities.

Application Prioritization

Assign app priority over multiple Internet links, regardless of the speed or provider. For example, prioritize voice call quality over video streaming–your business needs come first.

Real-time Network Failover

Allows sessions to move to new transports in brown/black-outs without a drop or disruption.

Load Balancing & Performance Monitoring

Available at session and packet level. Forward error correction and more to meet network demands.

Security at the Edge

Using SD-WAN with a SASE framework, our SD-WAN combines Zero-Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Next Gen Firewall (NGFW), Unified Threat Management (UTM), and gateways within our network’s core. Increase performance and better network control—at the edge.

What is SD-WAN?

SD-WAN, or Software-Defined Wide Area Network, is a technology that simplifies the management and operation of a wide area network (WAN) by using software to intelligently route traffic and optimize performance. It's a modern networking approach that simplifies the management and operation of a WAN (Wide Area Network) by separating the network hardware from its control mechanism through software. This leads to benefits like reduced costs, enhanced performance, improved agility, and increased availability.

Compare the Features of SD-WAN Pro and SD-WAN Enterprise

	SD-WAN Pro	SD-WAN Enterprise
IPsec VPN Securely connect all of your sites and remote workers on one network. Fusion Connect IPsec supports full-mesh or hub-and-spoke topologies and routing policies, and uses end-to-end encryption to ensure confidentiality, data integrity and authentication. Industry-leading technology supports BYOD (bring your own device) yet avoids bandwidth bottlenecks. Customers gain safe and secure access to enterprise data and applications among branch locations, and from remote laptops, tablets, and other devices.
Circuit Load Balancing Automatically balance your network traffic between two or more WAN links.
5G or 4G/LTE Failover Traffic automatically redirects to a 5G or 4G/LTE interface in the event of a connectivity failure. Requires an existing or new 5G or 4G/LTE circuit (sold separately).
High Availability (HA) CPE Hardware redundancy at the premises.
Application Layer Firewall A firewall that is able to secure applications, not just ports and IP packets. Customers can set security policies for specific applications.
Proactive Circuit Restoration Check the status of your Internet connection—24/7/365. If we detect an issue, we will automatically contact you via email, create a trouble ticket, and quickly work to resolve the problem and minimize your network downtime.
SSL Inspection / Decryption Protects you from attacks that use HTTPS and other commonly used SSL-encrypted protocols including SMTPS, POP3S, IMAPS, and FTPS.
Geographically Diverse Failover Customer network data (system and configuration) is replicated across multiple data centers and gateways. If a gateway goes down, the SD-WAN device connects to another gateway that already has the customer’s data network.
Dynamic Path Selection The bandwidth of two or more connections is combined to provide a single connection. Traffic path is selected per packet based on loss, latency, and jitter.
Voice / Real-time Application Failover Route calls and other priority real-time application traffic over the cleanest WAN connect to eliminate dropped calls, choppy sound quality, and echoes.
Bi-directional Priority Routing Application link and route decisions are made at the premises and within the Fusion Connect core network.	Optional
Advanced Security Implement comprehensive, multi-layered security that safeguards your network and data assets against viruses, malware, and emerging cyber threats, with AV/Malware, IPS, and Web Filtering.	Optional	Optional
