Why Providers Need a POTS Replacement Plan

Providers who rely on a analog lines are at high risk of service interruptions and shrinking revenue

In 2017, the FCC told telecom providers to sunset their plain-old-telephone-service (POTS) lines, leaving service providers in the difficult position of either significantly increasing prices to maintain their legacy copper lines or finding an alternative.

It’s safe to assume that each of your business customers has at least one to two POTS lines that service business critical applications, such as alarms, elevators, security camera, or emergency systems. To face this challenge, service providers need to rapidly acquire or build a POTS replacement solution. With approximately 36 million POTS lines in the United States, countless business critical lines will be disrupted unless service providers utilize a POTS replacement.
