Preparing for the ISDN Switch Off with Draytek
It’s estimated that around 33%* of businesses are still using ISDN as their underlying communications infrastructure. With the switch off, all lines will convert to either SoGEA or SoGFast, making way for a faster way to enjoy the online world.
In order to ensure a reliable connection, it's crucial for businesses to consider upgrading their routers to stay ahead of the ever-evolving digital landscape. DrayTek routers are renowned for providing resilient connections, offering an enhanced performance and faster data transfer speeds.
Things to Consider:
Don't let outdated infrastructure hold you back, with options for both large business and home workers, the DrayTek portfolio offers a range of future-proof options to enhance productivity and connectivity.
Here's our top tips to consider when selecting a router in the lead up to the switch off.
1. |
VoIP Compatibility & Speed Ensure that the router supports VoIP protocols. This is essential in light of the switch off. Routers with high data transfer speeds will be better suited to accommodate the increased demand for data-intensive applications, online collaboration and cloud-based services. |
2. |
Quality of Service (QoS) & Security QoS features prioritise specific types of network traffic such as voice or video over others, ensuring a consistent and reliable performance.
