The old copper phone network is going away. Carriers have been retiring analog (POTS) lines across Illinois, and the strategy is visible on any recent bill: prices climb until the line is unprofitable to keep, then service windows close. Businesses still running copper for phones, fax, elevators, alarms, or fire panels are on borrowed time.
815 Voice replaces plain business lines outright with hosted service, same number, better features, lower cost. For the special lines, elevator phones, alarm panels, gate boxes, fax, we install analog adapters or cellular-backed devices that keep the equipment working and the inspectors satisfied.
We'll audit what's riding on your copper for free and tell you honestly which lines to move, which need special handling, and which you're paying for that go nowhere, we find those on most audits.
At a glance
- Free audit of your existing copper lines
- Same numbers, ported free
- Elevator, alarm, fax, and gate lines handled
- Cellular backup options for life-safety lines
- Usually cheaper than the copper it replaces
That is per line replaced, not per employee. Your fax line, your elevator phone and your alarm panel each count as a line, and we quote the life-safety ones with you after the free audit, because some need a cellular-backed device rather than a plain swap.
