Reliable internet access is essential to modern businesses. Critical systems such as phones, email, CRM and payment processing now depend on staying connected. From managing stock and coordinating deliveries to processing orders and supporting customers, connectivity underpins day-to-day operations.
Even the most reliable broadband or Ethernet connection can suffer an unexpected outage. Backup connectivity provides an alternative route to the internet, helping your team keep working and your customers stay in touch while your main service is restored.
For critical applications, automatic failover can significantly reduce downtime and operational disruption.
Automatic failover switches your business to a backup internet connection if your main service goes down.
A router monitors your primary connection and, if it detects a failure, redirects traffic through a secondary connection, such as 4G or 5G.
Once your main service is restored, the router switches back automatically. This helps minimise disruption and maintain access to essential systems without your team having to change connections manually.
From simple SIM-onlyconnectivity to a complete managed failover solution, choose the level ofresilience that suits your business.
Your Ethernet connection provides the performance and reliability your business depends on. Lister Connect 5G adds a separate 5G connection, helping keep your business online if the primary circuit becomes unavailable.
Designed specifically to complement business-critical Ethernet, Lister Connect 5G combines a business-grade 5G gateway, unlimited mobile data and a static public IP to provide aready-to-deploy backup connection.
YOUR LOCATION. YOUR CHOICE OF NETWORK.

A backup internet connection is only valuable if it is ready to perform when you need it. Remote monitoring provides visibility into the health and status of your failover solution, helping organisations ensure their backup connectivity remains available and operational.
Using remote management tools, administrators can view device status, monitor connectivity, receive alerts when failover occurs and access performance information without needing to visit the site. This can help identify potential issues early, reduce troubleshooting time and provide confidence that the solution is ready to respond should the primary broadband connection fail.
For organisations managing multiple locations, remote monitoring also provides a central view of deployed devices, making it easier to track connectivity, manage configurations and maintain consistent standards across the estate. Combined with optional managed services from Lister, this can help reduce the burden on internal IT teams whilst improving overall business resilience.
Every organisation relies on connectivity differently, but the impact of an internet outage is often the same: disruption to operations, reduced productivity and potential loss of revenue.
Backup connectivity solutions help organisations maintain access to critical systems when their primary broadband service becomes unavailable.
A backup connectivity solution is only as effective as the expertise behind it. Successful deployments require more than simply supplying a router and SIM card. They need an understanding of connectivity, networking, business continuity and ongoing support.
Lister combines extensive experience across telecommunications, IoT connectivity and IT services, allowing us to design solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing business environments.
Our team works with organisations across a wide range of connectivity projects, from mobile and fixed-line communications through to IoT deployments, secure networking and business continuity solutions.
This broad experience helps us understand how backup connectivity fits into the wider technology landscape and ensures solutions are designed with both operational and technical requirements in mind.
Unlike suppliers that focus solely on hardware or connectivity, we can bring together the different components required for a successful deployment, including:
• Connectivity and mobile networks
• Multi-network SIM solutions
• Network and router configuration
• Remote monitoring and management
• IT integration and support
• Ongoing technical assistance
This enables organisations to work with a single provider rather than coordinating multiple suppliers.
Solutions can be supplied pre-configured and ready for installation, helping reduce deployment time and complexity. Whether supporting a single office or multiple sites, our aim is to make backup connectivity as simple and effective as possible.
Our engineering and support teams remain available after deployment to assist with configuration changes, troubleshooting, monitoring and ongoing management. This helps ensure the solution continues to provide the resilience and reliability it was designed to deliver.

Internet connectivity is now a critical part of day-to-day business operations. From cloud applications and VoIP phone systems to card payment terminals and remote working, even a short outage can have a significant impact on productivity and customer service.
A backup connectivity solution can help reduce the risk of disruption by providing an alternative internet connection when your primary broadband service becomes unavailable.
Whether you're protecting a single office, a retail location, a healthcare facility or a multi-site estate, Lister can help design a solution that aligns with your operational requirements, resilience objectives and budget.
From automatic failover and multi-network connectivity through to remote monitoring and managed services, we can help you build a backup connectivity strategy that keeps your business connected when it matters most.
If you're reviewing your business continuity plans, experiencing broadband reliability issues or simply want to improve resilience, we'd be happy to discuss your requirements.
