As we approach 2027, it’s important to understand what the PSTN Switch Off means for businesses and individuals alike. Essentially, the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) will be retired in favour of newer, more advanced technologies like fibre broadband, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and mobile networks. This means that traditional landline phones and ADSL broadband will no longer function, and businesses and individuals will need to transition to alternative communication methods.
