In the default configuration, the failover between your internet connection and the LTE is approximately 5 seconds.

The package comes with a 2GB cellular data plan.
The package includes specific SIM cards optimized for the failover process. It is recommended to use the provided SIM cards.

Rebooting the POS ensures that it correctly recognizes and communicates with the Peplink device, ensuring optimal functionality.

Yes, each package contains a self-instruction sheet to assist with the installation and setup.
Standard overage charges from the cellular providers (Telus or Rogers) may apply. It’s recommended to monitor your data usage and consider upgrading your plan if needed.
All standard point-of-sale terminal payments, including debit, credit, and NFC phone payments, can be processed using POS Protect during an outage.
The device has 2 modes of operation. One is NAT, and one is IP Passthrough. By default, the box operates in NAT mode, which results in the fastest failover time and minimizes the impact of an outage. In some cases, IP Passthrough may be required for interoperability with existing POS Systems (please contact us if this is required).
