UniFi Cellular Backup (LTE Failover) Solutions

$199.00

UniFi Cellular Backup provides seamless internet failover for your UniFi network using LTE connectivity, ensuring your business stays online during primary ISP outages, fiber cuts, or power-related disruptions. At CCI, we specialize in deploying Ubiquiti’s UniFi LTE Backup solutions across Tennessee businesses — from small offices and retail locations to warehouses, medical practices, and multi-site operations — delivering reliable, automatic failover without complex configurations or additional hardware.

The UniFi LTE Backup family (including U-LTE and U-LTE Backup Pro) connects to any UniFi switch port via PoE, creates a virtual WAN link through a secure GRE tunnel, and automatically takes over when your main internet fails. The standard U-LTE includes a built-in AT&T SIM with a simple data plan option, while the U-LTE Backup Pro lets you bring your own AT&T nano-SIM for greater flexibility and potentially higher data plans or different carriers via compatible SIMs. These devices offer plug-and-play setup, signal optimization placement, and full integration with UniFi gateways like the UDM Pro, UDM SE, Cloud Gateway Max, UXG series, and more — all managed centrally through the UniFi Network application.

CCI handles the complete deployment: site survey for best cellular signal locations, PoE integration, failover configuration, data limit settings, traffic prioritization, external antenna recommendations (if needed), and ongoing monitoring for usage, signal strength, and firmware updates. Whether you need basic failover for occasional outages or robust continuity for mission-critical operations, UniFi LTE Backup keeps your network connected with minimal downtime and no recurring gateway licensing fees.
