UK PSTN Switch-off
BT Openreach announced that the traditional telephone system in the UK will be switched off at the end of January 2027 (extended from December 2025). Indeed, since the start of September 2023, buying or adding to existing analogue services has no longer been possible.
All schools will need to replace their existing analogue public switch telephone network (PSTN) telephony systems with a digital one that routes calls over the internet.
If your school still uses a traditional telephone system we advise you to start planning which alternative services you will migrate to.
Powerful softphone app
The Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) cross-platform interface synchronises features across the desktop, laptop and mobile apps so that almost any device with a modern web browser can become an extension of your telephone system.
If a staff member in the playground needs to be contacted or raise an issue, RM Voice is available right from their mobile phones.
