Providing a superior customer experience is critical in today's fast-paced banking landscape. These days, having a stable, uninterrupted network connection is essential rather than a luxury. Customers who have a good experience with their daily banking transactions are likely to create more transactions. On the other hand, an unexpected network outage can seriously harm the bank's profits and reputation.
As a result, financial security must be a priority, and as the banking sector is a common target for cyberattacks, strong network security must be implemented.
To address the risks and minimize potential financial losses, Robustel designed a bank branch 5G connection solution. This can help to provide strong network security, improve customer experience, and optimize operations within the banking sector.
The Solution: Bank Branch 5G Connectivity Solution
To ensure consistent banking service across branches, Robustel created a bank branch 5G connectivity solution. But, how it works?
The networked devices of bank branch are connected to the core switch through wired or Wi-Fi connections. The router uses cellular networks as a backup network and an Ethernet connector to connect to the bank's core switch as its primary network. A secure virtual LAN is created between bank branches via the use of VPN tunnels and cellular networks, providing a reliable backup link even in the event that the primary network fails.
Therefore, this innovative solution prevents service interruptions and ensures consistent customer satisfaction.
The Key Features of Bank Branch 5G Connectivity Solution
For bank branches to remain competitive, ensuring smooth and secure connectivity is essential. A 5G-enabled solution transforms the banking sector by providing:
Stable Connection
For a variety of networking applications, Robustel IIoT Gateway offers cellular network wireless networking and uninterrupted data transmission.
Security and Reliability
RobustOS was evaluated and validated by Nettitude, a reputable international cybersecurity lab, to be used as an IoT gateway operating system.
Information Encryption
Through comprehensive security measures, RobustOS securely creates VPN encrypted tunnels with the data center, guaranteeing the security of data transmission.
Topology
A network topology intended for a bank's branch infrastructure is depicted in the diagram below. It displays both wired and wireless connectivity between the bank data center and the bank branch core switch.
In order to enable the smooth integration of the bank's private network with the external network, the R5020 device acts as a router to help connect the core switch and base station. In turn, the base station is essential for establishing a connection with the data center and bank private network.
Moreover, the integration of Robustel RCMS, a reliable device management platform is highlighted in the diagram. This platform offers centralized device control and monitoring, which guarantees effective administration and network infrastructure security for the bank.
