SD-WAN SOLUTIONS

SD-WAN for Smarter Network Performance

Keep your business connected with a network that can adapt to changing traffic, application demands, and connectivity conditions. 

Gibson Teldata helps businesses design and deploy SD-WAN solutions that improve network performance, increase resiliency, and make multi-location connectivity easier to manage. 

Improve Network Performance

Prioritize critical applications and intelligently route traffic across available connections to help users get consistent performance where it matters most.

Build Greater Reliability

Reduce dependence on a single connection with automatic failover and multiple available network paths.

Gain More Network Control

Get better visibility into network traffic, application performance, and connectivity across your locations.

GETTING DOWN TO IT

When Traditional WAN Connectivity Becomes a Constraint

Your network has to support more than it used to. Cloud applications, VoIP, video meetings, multiple locations, remote access, and growing bandwidth demands can put pressure on traditional WAN environments. When your network can’t adapt, your users often feel the effects first. 

Stop dealing with:

  • Inconsistent application performance that affects voice, video, cloud tools, or other critical applications
  • Limited redundancy that leaves a location dependent on one primary connection
  • Complex multi-site management that makes network changes and troubleshooting harder
  • Growing bandwidth demands across offices, branches, and remote locations
  • Limited network visibility when you’re trying to understand where performance problems are happening

How SD-WAN Works

SD-WAN uses software-defined networking to manage traffic across multiple available connections. Instead of relying on one fixed path, the network can make routing decisions based on application needs, business policies, and current network conditions. 

Monitor Available Connections

SD-WAN monitors the performance and availability of broadband, fiber, MPLS, and other network connections in real time.

Identify Traffic Requirements

SD-WAN recognizes the needs of different applications, including voice, video, cloud platforms, and other business-critical tools.

Select the Appropriate Network Path

SD-WAN directs traffic over the best available path based on connection health, application needs, and business policies.

THE BENEFITS

Reasons Why SD-WAN Is Right for Your Business

SD-WAN gives growing and multi-location organizations more flexibility without making the network harder to manage. 

It’s especially useful when your business depends heavily on cloud services, real-time communications, or reliable connectivity between locations. 

Keep Your Most Important Traffic Moving

Prioritize business-critical applications such as voice, video conferencing, and cloud platforms so they aren't competing equally with less important network traffic.

Key SD-WAN Features

SD-WAN gives businesses more control over how network resources are used while creating a more flexible foundation for locations, users, cloud applications, and communications. 

Application-Aware Routing

Identify different types of application traffic and route them according to performance needs and business priorities.

Centralized Network Management

Manage policies and gain visibility across multiple business locations through a more centralized network environment.

Automatic Failover

Keep traffic moving by shifting to another available connection when the primary network path becomes unavailable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SD-WAN and how does it work?

SD-WAN stands for software-defined wide area network. It uses software-based controls to manage traffic across different network connections. The technology can evaluate application requirements and network conditions, then direct traffic according to predefined policies. 

Traditional WAN environments often rely on fixed network paths between locations. SD-WAN gives businesses more flexibility by allowing traffic to use different available connections according to application needs, network performance, and business rules. 

It can, but it doesn’t have to. Some businesses use SD-WAN to replace MPLS, while others combine the two. The best approach depends on your existing infrastructure, locations, applications, performance needs, and connectivity requirements. 

SD-WAN may be a good fit if your organization has multiple locations, relies heavily on cloud applications, needs greater network resiliency, or wants more control and visibility over network performance. Gibson can assess your current environment and help determine whether SD-WAN makes sense for your business.
