WHATS HAPPENING?

In November 2017, BT Openreach announced their timescales to switch off analog and ISDN lines in 2025, affecting PSTN-based services and some broadband services.

Digital demands on networks for organisations and homes have vastly changed and the underlying technology needs to reflect and support modern requirements.

WHICH SERVICES WILL BE AFFECTED?

If your organisation is using analog telephone lines, ISDN or broadband services running over analog lines, at the end of December 2025 these will be switched off and become end-of-life.

These include:

• Analogue phone lines (including dial-up devices, fax, modem, and PDQ machines)

• ISDN (ISDN2 and ISDN30)

• Some broadband services (ADSL, Max, 2+, and FTTC circuits)
