Solve Survivability

The ClearlyIP VoIP Failover Gateway

Experience a flexible and cost-effective solution to keep voice communication humming during Internet or power disruptions. Say goodbye to unreliable, complicated multi-path solutions and embrace simplicity with a ClearlyIP VoIP Failover Gateway. Leveraging GSM technology, this gateway ensures continuous connectivity by automatically switching to a GSM network when primary connections fail.

Stop Gambling With Safety

Operating Without a Failover Gateway Carries Risk

If your site has an elevator or is accessible to the public and your phones can’t make calls during an Internet or power outage, you have a huge problem. ClearlyIP’s VoIP Failover Gateway solves this, addressing compliance with state and federal regulations in an automated turn-key appliance that’s both simple and cost-effective. It’s designed to be easy to deploy and ready to seamlessly route your VoIP and analog phones over its bundled multi-carrier 4G wireless–whenever needed.

 

 

 

How does it work

How Does it Work?

The ClearlyIP VoIP Failover Gateway plugs easily into your LAN. It offers both a secondary registration point for your IP Handsets and a dial tone from ClearlyIP to your site’s analog equipment using its six built-in FXS ports. Whenever there’s an Internet or PBX service disruption–even during power outages–the gateway’s innovative design allows a built-in 4G multi-carrier wireless link to take over, routing voice calls until your primary connection is restored–essential for ensuring 911 call completion.

A Simple Solution to a Big Problem

Other multi-path failover solutions may involve complex network configurations and pay for secondary Internet providers, then still fail to deliver when they’re really needed–creating liability nightmares. The ClearlyIP VoIP Failover Gateway’s solution to this problem is solid in its simplicity. When your primary Internet link becomes unreachable or hosted PBX becomes unresponsive, the device’s multi-carrier 4G wireless wakes up, and SIP trunking from ClearlyIP takes over–allowing your handsets (and analog ports) to make and receive calls until things are restored—no human intervention required.

Analog Flexibility

The ClearlyIP VoIP Failover Gateway offers 6 FXS analog dial tone ports for legacy equipment and a potential “last resort” POTS path via 2 FXO line ports. For higher-density analog needs, layer on ClearlyIP’s analog gateways to connect as many legacy ports as you need.
