What is Managed WAN?

Our platform supports a range of high-speed, high-performance Managed WAN connectivity methods. We can connect sites of all shapes and sizes, bringing your entire network ecosystem together.

From Fibre-to-the-Premises, leased lines and much more, we'll work with you to design and deploy an optimum blend of last-mile connectivity solutions.

How does Managed WAN work?

Managed WAN involves delivery of physical circuits to your sites and configuration of network devices and Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).

Our Managed WAN service is designed to achieve seamless access from your HQ and branch sites to workloads and applications in the cloud, the data centre, third party networks - or a combination of these.

We’ll work closely with you and your team to understand your requirements and propose a suitable WAN deployment - with appropriate access options, backup lines and bandwidths.

For all tail circuits, bandwidth options range from 10Mbps to 10Gbps. Managed WAN connections can be deployed via the following methods:

Ethernet over Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC)
Ethernet over Fibre to the Premises (FTTP)
Fibre-based Ethernet Service (Leased Lines)
Internet Breakout

BENEFITS

Managed WAN benefits

We know that every network is unique. Our platform is completely configurable to your needs, allowing you to connect sites through a variety of connectivity methods, and augment your existing infrastructure without causing disruption or upheaval.

We collaborate with you to design a bespoke platform solution, tailored to meet your immediate challenges while providing the flexibility to scale and adapt as new technologies emerge.

Our platform offers flexible, secure network access to clouds, data centres, third-party networks, and the internet.

As a technology-agnostic provider, we’re not tied to a single set of tools. This allows us to create a truly bespoke, adaptable solution that's as unique as you are. Simply tell us your requirements, and we’ll do the rest.

Together, we'll analyse your current and future technology plans, and help you plot a path to an optimal architecture.

Once you're part of our customer community, you'll be supported by our proactive and responsive customer success team. Together, we'll ensure your WAN infrastructure remains fit for purpose, scalable, and future-ready.

We offer a range of advanced security services to safeguard users, devices and data across your Managed WAN solution.

Implement advanced security functions like FWaaS, SWG and WAF, protecting all your site and user traffic as part of a comprehensive network security posture.

This ensures end-to-end protection, safeguarding your network from evolving threats while maintaining seamless, uninterrupted access for authorised users. With Cloud Gateway, you can be confident that your network is secure, resilient, and aligned with best practices in the industry.

The Cloud Gateway portal shows your entire connected ecosystem, via a simple, intuitive dashboard. It's packed full of data, allowing you to keep track of your network performance, utilisation and traffic flows in real-time, as well as raise support tickets to our team.

What makes Cloud Gateway's WAN Services unique?

With a traditional vendor, you get cutting-edge technology. With a Managed Service Provider (MSP) you receive reliable, expert support.

Cloud Gateway is uniquely positioned to offer both of these outcomes. Our tech-enabled managed service seamlessly blends an innovative technology platform with best-in-class experts, to deliver a transformative customer experience that is disrupting the network and security market.

The networking sector is evolving, and we’re committed to leading this change. As businesses demand smarter, more flexible solutions, we harness the power of Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) to provide agile, secure, and future-ready connectivity.

MANAGED WAN FAQS

Answering your FAQs about Managed WAN

WAN stands for Wide Area Network - it's the method by which your geographically separated network endpoints are connected together. Whereas a Local Area Network (LAN) is contained within one location, perhaps an office building - your WAN brings together multiple locations, be it buildings, data centres or cloud environments.

SD-WAN stands for Software Defined Wide Area Network. It's similar to a traditional WAN, in that it connects geographically distinct endpoints. However, there is a control layer on top of the network, powered by software, which allows you to configure and change aspects of the WAN from one place. SD-WAN can combines both internet and private networking, allowing you to build a network without hardware, if you wish.

Managed WAN services allow you to outsource network management to Cloud Gateway. Network skills are in short supply, so it's often preferable to pass responsibility for network maintenance to an MSP, so that you can focus internal resource on other priorities. Managed WAN services are backed by SLA, availability and uptime guarantees.
