IS YOUR LIFT READY FOR THE ANALOGUE TO
DIGITAL SWITCHOVER?
The digital switchover of telephone
lines in the UK is happening now. By
2025, Openreach will have phased
out all copper analogue telephone
lines in favour of optical fibre
networks.
What the digital switchover means
for you
If you are a building manager you may
already be aware of the need to change
phone lines in your building, but may
not have realised that your liœ s will be
aˆ ected by the Public Switch Telephone
Network (PSTN) switch oˆ .
Some liœ s in buildings have an alarm,
enabling passengers to communicate
in an emergency situation. With the
analogue to digital switchover, liœ owners must
now manage the transition of their emergency
alarms from analogue phone lines to other digital
alternatives.
The digital switchover will not happen overnight
54 APRIL 2022
and work is being completed in phases across the
UK.
However, being prepared for this, understanding
the implication for your liœ , and choosing the right
solution for your liœ ahead of time is essential to
keep your liœ s compliant and your
passengers safe.
About GSM, the ‘digital’ phone line
alternative
One option as part of the preparation
for the digital switchover is GSM. GSM
telephony provides a reliable and
cost-eˆ ective digital solution for most
existing liœ s. Without the need for
physical phone lines and installations,
a GSM module can be easily installed
and battery-backed to provide a failsafe
in the event of a power outage.

Stannah’s new portfolio of digital
services includes a managed SIM
service, which covers the cost of calls, line rentals and
24/7 connectivity monitoring, oˆ ering peace of mind
to liœ owners, improved product safety for users and
reduced risk for the owner. For more information, visit

FACTORY CERTIFICATION UNDER LENELS2
OPENACCESS ALLIANCE PROGRAM
Seven diˆ erent 2N® IP intercoms interface with LenelS2’s OnGuard® access
control security system
2N Telekomunikace
today announced that
it has received LenelS2
factory certification
and joined the LenelS2
OpenAccess Alliance
Program (OAAP). All
intercoms with the 2N
OS, including the 2N®

the OnGuard® access control system, bringing together the complete linking of
access, alarm, video and audio events.
“2N Telekomunikace has completed required factory testing at LenelS2 to
validate the functionality of its interface to the OnGuard system. This gives
operators a holistic view of the building right from the front door or entrance gate
so that they can react more quickly and appropriately if any incident occurs,” said
John Marchioli, OAAP Product Management, LenelS2. “We look forward to 2N’s
continued involvement in the LenelS2 OpenAccess Alliance Program.”
“The interface between 2N’s IP intercoms and the OnGuard access control
system is a big step forward for our company,” said Michal Kratochvíl, 2N’s Chief
Executive Oˆ icer. “It enables security operators to monitor their intercoms
through one comprehensive security platform, making their lives easier and
helping them keep their buildings safe.”
