Use Case: 5G Backup — The "Double Safety Net" for High-End Fashion Retailers

Background

As the "New Retail" concept deepens, high-end fashion brands are accelerating their omnichannel digital transformation, implementing innovations like AI foot traffic analysis and live commerce. However, these applications demand extreme network stability and real-time performance. If the main network fails, it causes live stream buffering, POS system paralysis, and inventory synchronization errors, directly damaging the brand image and sales revenue.

Requirements
  • Seamless Failover (Zero-Perception): When the primary broadband fails, the network must switch to the 5G backup link within seconds to ensure zero lag for critical services like payments.
  • Centralized O&M: A unified view of network status across all national stores is required to reduce troubleshooting time to minutes.
  • Cost Control: The redundancy solution needs to be more operational cost-effective than traditional dual wired lines.
Solution: 5G CPE02 Backup Gateway

The CPE02 can function as a primary gateway for both wired and wireless connections or be seamlessly integrated into existing networks as a dedicated 5G backup solution. It establishes a "Dual-Network Intelligent Switching + Cloud-Device Synergy" architecture:

  • Dual-Channel Hot Standby for Business Continuity Fixed-Mobile Convergence (FMC): The primary link uses Gigabit broadband, while the backup link connects via the 5G network through the CPE02. With optimized redundancy policies, if the wired link is interrupted, the network switches to the 5G backup in seconds, guaranteeing business continuity.
  • Intelligent Traffic Scheduling Service Prioritization: Using built-in traffic shaping policies, the CPE02 ensures priority bandwidth for critical services like POS payments and Live Streaming, preventing congestion from non-essential traffic.
  • Star Cloud Manager for Smart O&M Visualized Management: Provides real-time monitoring of 5G link status across all stores and automatically generates network health reports.Remote Maintenance: Eliminates the need for on-site IT engineers, significantly reducing network maintenance costs.
