LTE Failover Connectivity in Northgatefor apartments
A second internet path that takes over automatically when the fibre drops, keeping cameras and alarms online. We design, install and support lte failover connectivity for apartments in Northgate and the surrounding Johannesburg North area. Northgate combines retail, light industrial and residential, so the electrical and network environment varies block by block. Apartments are best served by wireless control, a single-door intercom or access point and a compact network cabinet — no drilling in common property, nothing that needs a body corporate resolution.

What a lte failover connectivity installation covers in Northgate
Every project starts with a walk-through of the property. We look at what is already installed, where the weak points are and what you actually want the system to do day to day. The scope is written down before anything is ordered, and it covers automatic failover and return, remote access maintained during outages and monitored data usage. For an apartment in Northgate that usually means starting with dual-wan routers, then adding lte routers and antennas and sim and data arrangement where the property needs it.
Equipment specified for apartments
We specify equipment for the building in front of us rather than bundling the same kit for every job. Typical components are dual-wan routers, lte routers and antennas and sim and data arrangement. Where hardware is already in place and still reliable, it is reused; where it cannot integrate cleanly, we tell you and quote the replacement instead of forcing it into the design.
What it costs and how long it takes in Northgate
A connected-home package starts at R 14 900, and a combined security and automation installation starts at R 34 900. LTE Failover Connectivity as a standalone scope is quoted from the site visit, because cabling distance, roof access, wall construction and the number of control points in Northgate drive the number more than the hardware does. Most residential installations run one to three days on site; commercial work is scheduled around your operating hours.
Living with the system after handover
At handover we walk through every function, set the app up on your phone and leave the installation documented — labelled cables, panel schedule and the equipment list. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months and support runs through the same team that designed the system. Backup power is scoped with the installation so control equipment, the network and recording keep running through load-shedding.
LTE Failover Connectivity questions we are asked most
Do you install lte failover connectivity in Northgate?
Yes. Northgate is inside our Johannesburg North service area, and site visits there are free. We assess the property, confirm what is feasible and send a written quote rather than pricing over the phone.
Can lte failover connectivity be retrofitted into an apartment?
In most cases, yes. Apartments are best served by wireless control, a single-door intercom or access point and a compact network cabinet — no drilling in common property, nothing that needs a body corporate resolution. We plan the cable routes and mounting points around what exists, and anything that needs chasing walls is discussed before work starts.
Does the system keep running during load-shedding?
Control equipment, the network and recording are placed on backup power sized to the installation, so the system stays online and viewable from your phone. Heavy loads are left off backup unless the battery capacity is scoped for them.
Can you work with equipment we already own in Northgate?
Where existing cameras, panels, motors or network hardware are reliable, they are integrated. Anything that cannot be supported or secured properly is listed with a replacement option, so you can decide rather than discover it later.
