Network Redundancy in Brazil

Redundancy in Brazil is only real when the second path is physically diverse — a different duct, a different building entry, ideally a different carrier. Two circuits from the same provider down the same street fail together.

Specify it explicitly and ask for the route to be confirmed. Where fibre diversity does not exist at an address, licensed fixed wireless is frequently the honest second path.

Brazil connectivity delivered by a neutral multicarrier operator. We map every route available at your address and come back with price, lead time and SLA.

Two links is not redundancy

The most common redundancy design in Brazil is two circuits from two suppliers, and a meaningful share of those designs fail together. The reason is that both circuits often ride the same duct along the same stretch of road, enter the building through the same riser, or terminate on the same tower. Different invoices, one shovel.

Redundancy is a property of the physical path, not of the contract. If nobody can tell you where the second path physically runs, you have not bought redundancy.

What actually fails

Designs that hold up

Diverse fiber pair

Two fiber routes on physically separate paths, ideally entering the building at different points. The strongest option and the one that most often turns out to be unavailable at a given address.

Fiber plus fixed wireless

The practical answer when a second fiber route does not exist or would take half a year. Wireless shares nothing with the buried path, which is exactly the point. Capacity is lower; for keeping a site alive during a cut, it rarely matters.

Two upstreams with BGP

If you have your own ASN, announcing to two providers gives you failover that survives one of them having a bad day, not just one of them losing a fiber.
