Switch from POTS and ISDN to IP Today Before It’s Too Late!
It’s the end of POTS and ISDN as we know it…

Broadcast Implications
What does this mean for me as a broadcaster you may ask? Well, you will be affected if you:
- Still use a POTS codec.
- Use a POTS hybrid for studio IFB circuits.
- Have any analog Plain Old Telephone Service circuits in use.
