Understanding Dark Fibre and Its Business Applications
18 Mar, 2026
Zero-downtime internet resilience for creative operations that cannot afford to go offline.
Failover activates in seconds without manual intervention — your team continues working without even noticing the switch.
We use a different carrier and technology for your backup connection, eliminating single points of failure entirely.
Both primary and failover circuits are monitored 24/7, so we know the moment either one has an issue.
Cloudswitched deploys automatic failover internet solutions for UK creative agencies that detect primary line failures and automatically switch traffic to a backup connection within seconds. Your designers, editors, and producers continue working, Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io stay online, and your clients never notice a thing.
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
We ensure your primary and backup connections use different carriers, different technologies, and where possible different physical routes into your building to eliminate common failure points.
Our equipment does not just check if a cable is connected — it actively tests internet reachability and application availability, triggering failover only when genuine connectivity loss occurs.
When the primary circuit recovers, traffic is automatically returned to it without disruption. We verify stability before completing the failback to avoid flapping.
When your primary connection drops, traffic instantly reroutes to the backup line. Your designers, editors, and producers continue using Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io without interruption, avoiding the productivity and revenue losses of manual intervention.
We deploy backup connections on physically separate infrastructure — different exchanges, different carriers, or 4G/5G wireless — ensuring a single point of failure cannot take your studios and offices offline.
Critical creative operations like Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io remain accessible regardless of primary line status, protecting your client NDA and IP protection requirements obligations and client service commitments.
24/7 monitoring detects degradation before failure occurs. If your primary line shows signs of trouble, we alert your designers, editors, and producers and prepare the failover path before any service impact.

Multiple backup technologies: 4G/5G, secondary fibre, bonded lines, and satellite
Understanding of uptime requirements for Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io and creative workflows
Sub-second failover with no manual intervention required by your designers, editors, and producers
Free resilience audit identifying single points of failure in your current setup
Transparent monthly pricing with no excess usage charges on backup connections

A failover internet connection continuously monitors your primary line. When it detects a failure or significant degradation, it automatically routes all traffic through a secondary connection. Your designers, editors, and producers continue accessing Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io without needing to do anything.
Cloudswitched offers 4G/5G wireless, secondary fibre from a different provider, bonded broadband, and even satellite failover. We recommend the best option based on your studios and offices location, budget, and the criticality of your creative operations.
Failover solutions for creative agencies start from £30 per month for 4G backup to £150+ per month for a fully diverse secondary fibre connection. The cost is minimal compared to the revenue lost during an outage affecting your Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io.
Our failover solutions typically switch traffic in under 5 seconds. For creative agencies running Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io, this means sessions remain active and transactions in progress are not lost.
Yes. We configure failover connections to support your critical creative applications including Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, and Frame.io. While the backup line may offer lower bandwidth than your primary, it is sized to keep essential operations running until the primary is restored.
