What Causes Outages?
Losing power or Internet may seem unlikely, but interruptions happen. From weather to user error, safeguard your business against these five common causes of outages:
Weather
Thunderstorms, hurricanes, tornadoes, snowstorms, wildfires and more can cause Internet and power loss, resulting in unexpected downtime for your business.
Human Error
Accidents happen—especially when it comes to technology. Whether that means misusing hardware or an unplugged chord, human error can cause a loss of connectivity.
Equipment Failure
Old or improperly maintained equipment can also cause outages. Keep equipment updated to reduce the risk of an outage.
Overloaded Networks
A strained network can reach its limit, resulting in slower Internet speeds or a complete outage.
Cut Cables
Construction, outdoor landscaping and other outside factors can inadvertently cut a line and disrupt your business.
