Is your business ready for the PSTN switch off?

Is your business ready for the PSTN switch off?

When it comes to technology, it is essential that your business keeps moving with the times in order to remain in the game. And there’s one major technological development on the horizon that could be a real game-changer for your business.

BT Openreach will shut down the Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) by December 2025.

Before this date, every phoneline in the UK will need to move to a fully digital network that uses Internet Protocol (IP) across a fibre-based service.

What does this mean for your business?

Any equipment that currently uses the PSTN will stop working. From phonelines to security alarms, door entry systems to CCTV – all could be affected.

The best way to ensure your business stays one step ahead is to move to the latest IP technology. That’s where incovo can help.
