Your copper landlines are being shut off.
We replace them for half the cost.
Fire alarm panels. Elevator phones. Fax lines. Credit card terminals. Every analog line on your bill — replaced with modern, UL-listed, battery-backed equivalents that keep working when the carriers turn off the copper. Same numbers. Better reliability. $25-50/line/mo vs $80-200/mo for copper.
Why this isn't a "wait and see" situation
In 2019, the FCC ruled carriers can stop maintaining copper landlines. Since then AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink have been actively retiring copper. Lines are getting more expensive every year, more failure-prone, or simply being disconnected with notice.
Replacing now = lock in lower cost, lower compliance risk, modern reliability. Replacing under disconnect pressure = expensive emergency project.
Everything you need, none of the headaches
Beat the FCC Sunset
AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink are retiring copper landlines through 2027. Replace before your lines get more expensive — or stop working entirely.
50-70% Cost Reduction
Average POTS line: $80-200/mo. Modern POTS-replacement: $25-50/mo. A 10-line business saves $6,000-18,000/year — every year.
Keep Your Numbers
Full porting included. Customers, vendors, and inbound caller-IDs all keep working. No re-printing business cards or updating signage.
UL-Listed Life-Safety
Modern POTS-replacement boxes are UL-listed for fire alarm panels, elevator emergency phones, and access control. Compliance-ready out of the box.
Battery + Cellular Failover
8-24h battery backup. Cellular fallback if your internet drops. Fire codes met or exceeded — better uptime than the copper they replace.
Drop-In Replacement
Hardware emulates analog dial-tone. Your existing fax machines, alarm panels, and credit card terminals plug in and work — no equipment replacement.
Works with everything already in your building
Modern POTS-replacement boxes emulate analog dial-tone perfectly. Your existing equipment plugs in and works — no replacement, no recertification.
We compare 8+ providers — match the right fit to your site
There's no single best POTS replacement. The right answer depends on your line count, geography, mix of life-safety vs. data lines, and existing carrier relationships. We do the comparison work for free.
Frequently asked
Why are my copper landlines being shut off?+
The FCC ruled in 2019 that carriers can stop maintaining copper TDM lines. AT&T, Verizon, and CenturyLink are actively retiring them through 2027. Lines are getting more expensive year over year, less reliable, or being disconnected outright in some areas. Acting now is cheaper than reacting later.
Will my fire alarm and elevator phones still work?+
Yes — those are exactly the lines we replace first because they're typically the most expensive on your bill ($100-200/mo each) and the most regulated. Modern POTS-replacement devices are UL-listed for life-safety use with battery backup and cellular failover. We work with your alarm or elevator company to test compliance after install.
How much will I save?+
Most businesses save 50-70% per line. A single fire alarm line typically drops from $150/mo to $40/mo (savings: $1,320/year per line). A 10-line business with mixed alarm, fax, and analog phone lines typically saves $6,000-18,000/year — every year, recurring.
What about my fax machines and credit card terminals?+
Modern POTS-replacement boxes emulate analog dial-tone for fax, modems, and credit card terminals. Your existing equipment plugs in and works without modification. We test every device on-site before final cutover so nothing surprises you.
How long does deployment take?+
For a single-location business, typically 1-3 weeks from contract to cutover. Multi-location rollouts are 4-8 weeks depending on line count. We handle the carrier paperwork, hardware shipping, on-site swap, and post-cutover monitoring.
What if my internet goes down?+
Modern POTS-replacement devices include cellular failover. If your primary internet drops, the box automatically switches to LTE or 5G to keep dial-tone alive. Plus 8-24 hours of battery backup. In most deployments, the replacement actually has BETTER uptime than the copper line it replaces.
Is this just for huge businesses?+
No. Even a 1-2 line business with a single fire panel POTS line typically pays back the switch within 2-3 months. The smaller the business, the higher the % savings, since carrier minimum fees on copper hit small businesses hardest.
The longer you wait, the more the disconnect notice will cost you.
We start with a free line audit — your existing carrier bill, line counts, and which lines are highest priority (life-safety first). Most audits take 30 minutes and surface $5-15K of immediate annual savings.
