An oil and gas company is deploying SD-WAN to 30 offshore platforms. These platforms have no wired connectivity and rely on satellite links with 50 Mbps capacity. The company also needs a backup LTE connection for critical communications. The platforms have limited space and harsh environmental conditions. Which device characteristics are most important for this deployment?

High throughput capacity to handle future traffic growth.

A standard rack-mount form factor for easy installation.

Support for satellite WAN interfaces and a ruggedized form factor for harsh environments.

Support for both satellite and LTE WAN interfaces, plus a ruggedized form factor.

What is the purpose of high availability (HA) features in SD-WAN devices?

To ensure network resilience by providing failover and redundancy

To simplify the device's management interface

To increase the device's throughput

To reduce the device's power consumption
