Sky and CityFibre sign partnership to bring Sky Full Fibre Broadband to the CityFibre network
20 August 2024
Openreach recently began its consultation with ISPs on the planned withdrawal of all PSTN and ISDN services by 2025 as they attempt to move all telephone systems to newer, more flexible VoIP solutions. However, that doesn’t mean that Openreach is withdrawing all copper phone lines, they’re still very much needed for the provision of copper based and FTTC broadband services (amongst other things) but it does mean that business customers currently using ISDN and PSTN phone systems will need to upgrade to an alternative, and that’s where you come in!

Whilst 2025 may sound like a long way off, with an estimated 2.1 million ISDN30 channels and 0.87 million ISDN2 Business channels currently in use in the UK now really is the perfect time to get ahead of your competitors and seize this opportunity. Being proactive really could pay off, helping your customers to be fully prepared well in advance of the withdrawal date.
Plus there are so many advantages of switching to VoIP, including:
To make things even easier for you, we’ve developed a brand new ISDN replacement solution which provides your customers with a 500Mbps GPON connection and either 30 free SIP channels if your customer wants to retain any existing PBX equipment or for customers requiring a complete disaster recovery solution through the use of hosting, 20 free hosted voice seats.
