Re: Modern landline
An article about various countries timeline for PSTN shutdown. https://www.analysysmason.com/research/content/articles/carrot-stick-copper-rdfi0/ An article about a company specializing in harvesting copper related to PSTN shutdown. https://www.txo.com/blog/unleashing-the-potential-of-copper-off-in-the-telecoms-industry/2.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Modern landline
Yeah, connecting a SIP phone whether hard phone, soft phone or an ATA is pretty easy using TELUS's residential gateway. An IMS compliant SIP phone needs to provide some header extensions. Also authenticating with IMS is a bit more involved than the usual SIP configuration. Granted Canada is a different situation than more densely populated countries. However Australia is targeting a PSTN shutdown. Companies can finance the conversion with the billions they can get from harvesting copper.2.8KViews0likes1CommentModern landline
I have TELUS fibre to my home and my landline operates via the fibre. As I understand it the ONT in my home includes an ATA which alows my to use an old fashioned phone. My question is there an ONT available that would allow me to use a SIP phone. My second question is more involved and I suppose is directed a TELUS insiders. Does TELUS have lans to shut down the PSTN like they have done in the Netherlands and Estonia. And BT plans to complete their PSTN shutdown in 2025. 3GPP and the Broad Band Forum ( BBF ) have specification for fixed wireline and fixed wireless to access IMS in a similar manner to VoLTE and 5G. Will we see TELUS providing IMS features to landlines in the forseeable future. Think high definition voice, video calls, SMS/MMS and one number for home and mobiles.2.9KViews0likes3Comments
