Moving Beyond PSTN – The Big Switch is Coming in 2025 – Time to look into 3CX VoiP Phones
Exciting new developments are on the horizon. The telephone as we know it, is being transformed into an advanced, more efficient, and cost-effective system.
The public switched telephone network (PSTN) has been directing UK phone calls for over a century. Now it’s time to move on to newer, advanced technology.
By the end of 2025 digital technology will replace the outdated existing infrastructure. The system will be switched over to internet protocol (IP) or voice over internet protocol (VOIP). This will allow for broadband and mobile data calls.
Why Replace PSTN and ISDN?
Traditional copper PSTN lines have been the standard since the invention of the telephone. The old technology is expensive and is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain. Copper is limited by distance and data capacity.
To improve service capacity, BT will be replacing this antiquated technology with efficient, modern fibre optic lines.
Transitioning to VoiP
To move forward with technology, it is necessary to switch over from PSTN and ISDN to voice over internet protocol (VOIP). This means that voice and video calls, as well as internet services, will be transmitted over fibre optic lines.
This change will require updated broadband. Services that currently use copper lines will need to be updated to continue working. These include alarms, EPOS machines, door entry systems, CCTV, and similar systems.
The benefits of VOIP systems have already been realised by many organisations. It is cheaper and more flexible than traditional phone networks.
