Apple @ Work, powered by Mosyle, highlights Eero's new LTE failover feature for remote employees. Eero Signal, a 4G LTE device, automatically activates during ISP outages, with a 5G version planned. Eero Plus subscribers get 10GB of annual bandwidth, upgradable to 100GB. This addresses the critical need for reliable connectivity in enterprises, K-12 schools, and healthcare sectors.

Traditional disaster recovery relies on dual ISPs, but shared infrastructure often causes simultaneous failures. A 2010 incident where a backhoe severed fiber lines illustrates this risk. Starlink Business, offering satellite-based internet, provides a decoupled backup path. With 400+ Mbps speeds and gigabit plans by 2026, it enables uninterrupted access to cloud services during outages.

Firewall vendors have a major opportunity to integrate Starlink support. A plug-and-play solution could automatically route critical traffic via satellite during failures, eliminating manual configuration. This innovation could redefine enterprise disaster recovery, leveraging Starlink's resilience and Apple's device management expertise.

Mosyle's platform streamlines Apple device deployment, management, and protection for 45,000+ organizations. As remote work persists, reliable connectivity solutions like Eero and Starlink will become essential for maintaining productivity and security.
