As many of you might already know, BT recently announced that all PSTN lines would be eliminated by 2025. This will have an impact on how your alarm system is monitored.
Parts of the UK’s areas have already been cut off. In the future, all phone lines will either be digital or over-IP, according to this. If your monitored alarm system uses outdated copper phone lines, you need to be prepared for the disconnections that will happen when those lines are removed.
What Happens if you don’t Upgrade Your Alarm Systems?
Due to the fact that monitoring equipment that uses this line will be rendered ineffective, properties that do nothing before their PSTN line is removed may be jeopardising the security of their site. This can render your property insurance void.
