Fire alarms, lifts and emergency lines
Connectivity for fire panels, lift emergency phones and other lines affected by the digital switchover. When the copper line goes, these lines still have to work, and 4G with VoLTE is the usual replacement.

Multi-Network Roaming Data SIM, 30-Day Rolling
Roaming data SIM that connects to the strongest UK network at your site: EE, O2 or VodafoneThree.
£6.50 to £35.75 Excl VAT Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page
Technologies used: 4G LTESIM, eSIM and IP addressingIoT and M2M
Typical set-ups
Lift emergency telephones
Lift autodiallers need a voice path. A cellular voice gateway or a VoLTE-capable SIM replaces the analogue line, without waiting for the building's broadband to be fixed.
Typical kit: Robustel EV8100 elevator voice gateway and a multi-network VoLTE SIM. See our lift SIM cards guide.
Fire alarm signalling
Panels with IP signalling need a reliable path to the receiving centre. A dedicated 4G router keeps it independent of the building's IT network.
Typical kit: Teltonika RUT200 or RUT901 with a multi-network data SIM.
Things to check before you buy
- Confirm the device needs voice (VoLTE) or data, as they need different SIMs.
- Check signal in lift motor rooms and shafts; an external antenna often helps.
- Keep emergency lines separate from the customer's IT network.

Questions
Do lift lines need voice or data?
Most lift autodiallers need voice, so they need a VoLTE-capable SIM or a voice gateway. Some newer systems use data. Check the autodialler before ordering.
What is the digital switchover?
The UK's analogue phone network (PSTN) is being switched off and replaced by digital services. Equipment that relied on a copper line, such as alarms and lift phones, needs a new path, and 4G is often the simplest.
