In 2025, the old analogue and ISDN lines we’ve had for decades will be switched off by BT Openreach. By then, all consumers and businesses will need to have upgraded to IP telephony, which is internet-based phone lines (VOIP).
But that’s not the only reason to move to All IP. There are many benefits to using IP Telephony, including the ability to work from any location you choose while using your usual business number. In addition, traditional ADSL internet services work over analogue lines, so these must be upgraded to full Fibre internet circuits.
Although the shutdown is in 2025, many BT Exchanges have already started closing down (referred to as “Stop Sell” by Openreach) and will continue to do so on a month-by-month basis. Our 1-Voice portfolio of IP Telephony solutions will fit your business well; with our Fibre internet range of connectivity, FLR Spectron will guide you through your IP journey.
