As the PSTN Switch Off rolls through the country, we're faced with more and more urgency to update to new Digital signalling. Tranche 5 of the roll-out is scheduled for 2nd August which is set to impact 3.5 million premises across the UK.

As we move ever closer to the 2025 deadline, are you ready?

Render Alarms are here to help guide our customers through this time, offering options in order to ensure your alarm signalling isn't effected.

There a wide range of options from trusted providers such as BT Redcare and CSL Dualcom to ensure you are ready for the switch. These digital communicators often utilise intelligent 4G simcards to ensure your signalling continues to operate as before, with very similar cost and experience for the end-user.

If you have a question about the PSTN switch off, or have received a letter to say you are due to be switched to Digital, please contact our friendly team for advice.

Why is BT changing from the PSTN network and copper cabling?

As hardware, innovation and technology evolves, the network in which it is built upon also requires the same attention. PSTN is now a dated method of communication and after the last 5 years, the way we communicate has changed massively, too.

With the introduction of Digital IP networks comes the opportunity to harness better quality communication, converged telephony, HD voice and many other additional features to continue to improve the network.

Whilst moving to IP promises exciting opportunities, this update will, however, effect the fire and security industry and the signalling of which many customers rely on to ensure their property and people are safe.
