Know your backup works before the outage happens

Traditional backup internet often sits idle until the worst possible moment. SmartFailover continuously monitors the primary and backup paths, validates failover readiness, and gives teams visibility into connection health before downtime disrupts the business.

SmartFailover includes:

Continuous readiness monitoring:
Detect potential downtime before it happens.

Business-critical traffic prioritization: Complete visibility, control, and alerts for device and data usage.

Intelligent, Multi-Carrier Wireless Connectivity:
Reliable, best path selection, no carrier lock-in.

Staging, Kitting, and Provisioning Services: Get your devices set up and shipped for you.

Continuous Network Monitoring
& Real-Time Data Insights

With the Kajeet SmartFailover Device Portal, you can quickly see the status of your primary network, the status of the SmartFailover solution, and traffic insights during failover/failback events.

Trusted by 3000+ Organizations That Can't Afford to Go Offline

From quick-service restaurants that can't afford a minute of downtime during a busy lunch rush to healthcare facilities that need to ensure round-the-clock connectivity for patients, and for the business partners that support them, the Kajeet SmartFailover solution has you covered.

Built for Multi-Client Deployments

Protect Every Location Without Adding Complexity

An Internet outage can cost your client's business $5600 per minute of downtime. Business-critical systems such as POS, customer service, billing, and payment processing are vulnerable to network outages that impact revenue, brand reputation, and customer experience.

A single outage could mean:

Point-of-sale systems freeze during the busiest hours

Increased, frantic calls to your IT teams

Remote teams can't access critical files or systems

Online orders stop processing

Cloud-based operations come to a halt

Customer service grinds to zero

How SmartFailover Works
(in Seconds, Not Hours)

No manual switching. No panic calls to IT. No lost revenue. With continuous monitoring, you can rest assured that your client's wireless backup solution is always ready in the event of an interruption.

The Kajeet Difference

Why SmartFailover

Unlike basic cellular backup solutions,  Kajeet SmartFailover continuously verifies that backup connectivity is ready before an outage occurs. Know the backup works before your clients need it.

Verified readiness

Know the backup path is available before the outage happens.

Zero Touch Provisioning

Deploy faster with devices activated, configured, kitted, and shipped for rollout.

Enterprise-Grade Security

Built-in firewall protection and next-gen malware detection keep your network safe—even during an outage.

 

Intelligent Traffic Prioritization

Use cellular bandwidth for the systems that matter most during failover. SmartFailover prioritizes revenue-generating applications (POS, payment systems, VoIP communications).

Kajeet SmartFailover FAQs

How does SmartFailover differ from a simple cellular backup device?

Traditional cellular backup devices provide a connection but don't validate readiness, prioritize traffic, or offer multi-carrier redundancy.  Kajeet SmartFailover continuously verifies that failover will work before you need it and intelligently manages traffic during outages to keep revenue operations online.

Can SmartFailover work with our existing network infrastructure?

Yes. Kajeet SmartFailover is designed as a plug-and-play addition to existing network setups, working alongside current routers, firewalls, and wireline connections without requiring infrastructure redesign.

How do we manage data costs during extended outages?

Kajeet SmartFailover's traffic prioritization ensures that only business-critical applications consume cellular data during outages. During extended outages, Sentinel platform controls allow you to adjust policies or temporarily increase data allowances for specific locations as needed.

Can Wireless Be Both Primary and Backup?

Absolutely.

If you already have Internet access using fiber, cable or DSL, wireless backup (failover) works well because it runs on a separate, always on, network.

If you're looking to use wireless as both primary and backup, it's important to deploy multi-network equipment to ensure if one carrier goes down, coverage automatically switches to another. 

 

 

How Do Kajeet Wireless Solutions Work?

When primary broadband connectivity fails, the system detects it instantly and automatically fails over to a secure wireless backup that uses one or more cellular carriers for strong coverage.

 
 
Is Wireless Access as Reliable as Wired Options?
With the introduction of multi-carrier SIM technology, wireless Internet access is just as reliable, if not more, because if signal is lost from one carrier, coverage from other carriers can be accessed. 
What Happens When the Main Internet Returns?
It automatically switches back—no manual intervention required.
Is Data Secure During Failover?
Absolutely. All connections use private, encrypted LTE/5G networks with built-in firewalls.
Can I Manage Multiple Locations?
Yes. The Sentinel platform gives centralized visibility and control across all sites.

A smarter failover plan starts before the outage

Do not wait until the primary internet fails to find out whether your backup connection works. Kajeet SmartFailover provides your team with a managed, multi-carrier wireless failover solution, with the visibility and support to keep systems running.
