Uplink Interfaces
Instant network supports Ethernet, 3G and 4G USB modems, and the Wi-Fi uplink to provide access to the corporate
Instant network. The 3G/4G USB modems and the Wi-Fi uplink can be used to extend the connectivity to places
where an Ethernet uplink cannot be configured. It also provides a reliable backup link for the Ethernet based Instant
network.
