Two changes are happening to the telephone network in Ireland, which will stop Digital Communicators and other signalling equipment, that relies on a PSTN phone line, from working correctly. Firstly, the technology that controls the telephone exchanges is being upgraded to IP. This work began last year and is being completed quarterly between now and 2023. Secondly, as the number of exchanges upgraded increases, a phased approach to moving end-users to VOIP services begins.
Initially, end-users will be encouraged to upgrade to an ‘e-fibre’ bundle. When 75% of these have switched to an IP line, the remaining copper customers will be incentivised to do the same. Finally, those still remaining on copper lines will be given 12 months' notice of a full withdrawal of services. We want to help you keep your signalling base working and your customers happy. We have options that offer easier, faster installation, with even greater resilience.
We can help you select the right replacement for your PSTN product. Choose our single-path Radio option DigiAir Pro or dual-path GradeShift Pro Radio/Radio
Ideal for replacing single-path systems that rely on a phone line. DigiAir Pro uses a 4G WorldSIM instead of a phone line to send its signal and is also supplied with a network diverse standby SIM
Ideal for replacing dual-path systems that rely on a phone line for one path. GradeShift Pro Radio/Radio uses two active 4G WorldSIMs. Each SIM operates on an independent network
Our solutions provide access to the latest 4G technology as well as compatibility with all leading panels. Upgrade to a future-proof signalling base that can be managed via the My Base App
