Analog Line Replacement

Replace your copper lines, not the equipment that uses them.

Copper telephone lines are being retired, and the lines that remain cost more every year. Valley VoIP analog line replacement gives your fire alarms, elevator phones, fax machines, and other devices the dial tone they need without the copper.

Why copper lines are going away

The copper telephone network was built generations ago, and the carriers that own it no longer wish to maintain it. Across the country they are retiring copper lines, and federal rules no longer require them to offer those lines at regulated prices. Many businesses have seen the cost of a single line rise several times over, and others have received notice that their lines will be disconnected.

The lines nobody thinks about

The difficulty is that the lines which remain on copper are often the most important ones in the building. Fire alarm panels, elevator emergency phones, burglar alarms, gate and door entry systems, fax machines, and emergency call boxes were all designed for an analog line, and replacing the equipment itself is expensive and disruptive.

How analog line replacement works

Analog line replacement installs a small device at your location that provides a standard analog dial tone to your equipment. The call itself is carried over a modern connection, such as broadband or a cellular network, instead of the copper line. Your alarm panel, elevator phone, or fax machine is plugged in exactly as before and continues to work as it does today.

Made for life-safety and business lines

Lines that serve fire alarms and elevators have requirements of their own, including the ability to keep working when the power fails. We will work with you, and with your alarm and elevator companies, to select a replacement that suits each line and satisfies the requirements that apply in your jurisdiction.

One provider, every location

Organizations with many sites often hold copper lines from several different carriers, each with its own bill. Valley VoIP can replace those lines across all of your locations nationwide, which simplifies the billing as well as the technology.

Questions

Common questions

What is POTS line replacement?

POTS line replacement provides a standard analog dial tone to equipment such as fire alarm panels, elevator phones, and fax machines, but carries the call over a modern network instead of an old copper telephone line.

Will my fire alarm and elevator phone still work?

Analog line replacement is designed for those uses. Because life-safety lines must meet local code requirements, we coordinate with you and with your alarm and elevator companies to choose a solution that your local authority accepts.

Why has the price of my copper lines gone up so much?

Carriers are retiring their copper networks and are no longer required to offer those lines at regulated prices, so many have raised rates substantially. Replacing the lines usually reduces the cost.
