Your Switch Off Checklist

It’s estimated that around 33%* of businesses are still using ISDN as their underlying communications infrastructure. Collectively, the Channel has a big job to do. With our range of products and services, we’re here to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption for your customers, enabling you to maximise the opportunities that are available.

We’ve put together a switch off checklist to cover all bases when it comes to helping customers navigate the switch off.

Customer Types:

Budget Conscious/Committed to existing systems: Eager to Upgrade:
Whether there’s a reluctance to upgrade, complex cabling or budget constraints, the following product lines could be the key to these customers:

The switch off poses the perfect opportunity to upgrade outdated systems. We offer a range of solutions for those looking to explore different options:

The Cross-Sell

But that’s not all! For all types of customers, there are some crucial considerations that they may not have thought about when deciding how to proceed with the switch-off:

Routers and APs

Do they have the necessary hardware to support the new VoIP devices and ensure comprehensive coverage?

UPS Devices

Are their critical systems adequately protected and capable of functioning during power outages or emergencies?

IP Alerting

Have they considered the need for an IP alerting system to replace their existing one? Many overlook the connection between their phone lines and alerting systems.

Access Control & Intercoms

If they haven’t updated these systems recently, they may soon find them becoming obsolete with the switch-off.

With our range of technical services and support, these items can become a simple cross-sell – we can even arrange the installation for you. Or why not let us train your team or provide remote installation support. We’ve got everything you need to seize the opportunities that the switch-off will bring, ensuring a smooth transition for both you and your customers.

Are You Switch Off Ready?

As we approach the UK end of sale date for new ISDN lines it’s a good time to ensure you have the right products available to your customers. In light of the switch off, it’s reported that BT will need to transition more than 14 million lines across the UK to accommodate for this digital transformation. With approximately a third* of UK businesses still utilising traditional telephone systems, the business opportunity is huge! Here’s a reminder of how we can help you to maximise your leads.

DECT Deployment Done Right

Deploying a DECT solution can come with more than a few challenges. First and foremost, you will want to make sure the solution you quote will meet your customers’ requirements. Getting your projects nailed at the beginning can save you time and money and keep your customers satisfied, without having to spend a long time going back and forth between sites, improving coverage.

The W80 deployment kit is perfect for combatting DECT deployment challenge, with special firmware that allows the W80 kit to effortlessly assess where and how many base stations you need to achieve the desired coverage.

What’s in the box?

W80 Base Station (DTK)

W56H Handset x 2

UH33 Headset x 2

The W80 base station is loaded with specialist firmware to pair with the supplied handsets. This helps to reduce interference with any existing base station coverage, allowing you to quickly identify the number of base stations required for your deployment.

Loaded with the same specialist firmware, the W56H handsets allow you to move around the deployment area and emits an audio cue to signify the coverage strength to make sure your devices are getting the best connection.

Connect the UH33 headsets to the W53H to make sure you are getting the clearest audio quality from your devices before they are deployed.

What are the Benefits of using a Deployment Kit?

When it comes to Multi-Cell DECT deployment, there are a number of things to take into consideration. The thickness of the walls, building layout, stairwells and fire doors all have an impact. Using a deployment kit helps to ensure the items you quote will be right for the project in hand. This will ultimately speed up your deployment time too.

Did you know you can rent a deployment kit?
Want to test the benefits of a W80 deployment kit for yourself? Why not take advantage of our rental kit. We offer a full W80 deployment kit to rent so you can make sure your quote is fit for purpose and can test how easy the kit is to set up and use.
