POTS lines are antiquated phone call communications services being discontinued because they are considered an end-of-life technology, no longer profitable for telecom providers. Eventually, all POTS services will be phased out or “sunset.” As POTS lines have been played a good role in large POTS voice or data application over decades, when we turn to a newer alternative solution, like VoIP, all the POTS replacement proposal are facing the same challenges.
Remaining Issues for POTS Replacement
Internet access issue
In old telephone system analog data transmit via copper lines. With IP PBX system, VoIP terminals registered to IP PBX through Internet is necessary. Once we remove the copper lines for legacy analog devices, we need to provide reliable Internet access for VoIP technology.
Power failure issue
Traditionally, POTS lines were dedicated pairs of twisted copper wires, which worked by transmitting voltage through the copper wire connection. The phone companies would provide the support to those lines including power. However, regular VoIP system does not support power backup. When we lose the external power, VoIP phone system will not work.
Protocol compatible issue
POTS lines serve a variety of purposes, including voice communications, security alarms, emergency call boxes, fire panels, and more. VoIP was designed for digital phone calls, it is not problem to replace with analog phone directly. However, Fax, modem data call and alarm systems do NOT work well with VoIP due to packet dropped or voice compress issues.
