Healthcare POTS Line Replacement
Ensuring Compliance, Continuity & Patient Safety
The nationwide retirement of copper POTS lines is creating urgent challenges for healthcare facilities. Hospitals, assisted living communities, behavioral health centers, and medical offices rely on analog lines for mission-critical systems—fax, fire alarms, elevator phones, and life-safety communications.
At Risk
The Healthcare Risk of the POTS Sunset
POTS line discontinuation impacts essential systems. Failed transmissions or alarm disruptions can expose facilities to regulatory penalties, safety risks, and operational downtime. A poorly managed transition can create compliance gaps and unnecessary infrastructure costs.
- HIPAA-sensitive fax transmissions
- Fire and security alarm panels
- Elevator emergency phones
- Nurse call and life-safety systems
