Abstract
Disclosed herein is a system comprising a first backhaul node, a second backhaul node, and multiple sites that each comprise a respective node configured to maintain a first communication link with the first backhaul node and a second communication link with the second backhaul node, operate in a first mode in which the respective node engages in communication with the first backhaul node over the first communication link and does not engage in communication with the second backhaul node over the second communication link, detect a triggering event associated with the first communication link, and in response to detecting the triggering event, dynamically switch from operating in the first mode to operating in a second mode in which the respective node engages in communication with the second backhaul node over the second communication link and does not engage in communication with the first backhaul node over the first communication link.
