Your Guide to Navigating the Copper Shutdown

As the copper shutdown approaches, businesses are facing significant changes in their communication infrastructure. The end of PSTN services means that traditional analogue phone lines and internet connections will no longer function, potentially disrupting essential communication channels. But don’t worry, we’ve put together our own guide to help you navigate this transition smoothly and ensure you stay connected.

The copper shutdown will affect various aspects of your communication setup. Here’s a brief overview of what to expect:

Phone Calls Only

As PSTN services come to an end, it’s important to note that your analogue phone lines will cease to function, leading to a disruption in all your communication channels. This means that any calls made through these lines will no longer be possible.

Internet Only

With the termination of PSTN services, your analogue internet line will be disconnected, resulting in a halt to all internet activities. This could impact your ability to access online resources, communicate via email, and more.

Phone & Internet

By seamlessly integrating the necessary processes, we can replace your existing broadband with a new internet connection, retain your phone number, and ensure you are prepared for the upcoming copper shutdown. This option provides a comprehensive solution to maintain both phone and internet services.

3rd Party Devices

The end of PSTN services will mean that your analogue phone lines will stop working, which will affect all your 3rd Party Devices. This includes devices such as alarms, card readers, and CCTV systems that rely on these lines.
