With digital technology advancing at warp speed, it’s no surprise that the telecommunications industry is shifting toward fiber-optic infrastructure to replace outdated copper cable. The performance advantage is clear: The biggest benefit of fiber is that it can offer much faster operating speeds over much longer distances than traditional copper-based technologies like DSL and cable.
All the speed—all the time. An added layer of protection for network sustainability—and uninterrupted connectivity—QXC offers an exclusive fixed-wireless backup for both residential and business customers. QXC is the only fiber provider in South Florida to offer fixed-wireless backup connectivity: In the event that the fiber strand or conduit is accidentally cut or damaged, the network service seamlessly connects to the backup wireless system, so our customers never lose service.
To facilitate that service offering, QXC maintains microwave backup towers throughout the area for direct, expedient network connections. The service requires a clear line of sight to the tower based on proximity, so the backup service is not yet available to all customers; however, additional towers are currently being added to expand the service offering.
Whether you’re a business managing critical data or a residential customer who needs access to your TV and home security system, knowing that you have an emergency backup is an invaluable benefit.
The barrier islands in South Florida are an ideal fit for QXC’s wireless backup service: There are a lot of older condominium communities on the islands with outdated and aging infrastructure. Providing wireless network redundancy to these communities is a great value-add for high-density residential communities along the coast.
