Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS)

Why ANALOG-Page-Image1would anyone still need Plain Old Telephone Service or POTS?  With the proliferation of cell phones, many people see traditional landline phones as antiquated and past their prime.  What you may not realize, is that during an emergency, a cell phone may give the 911 operator an approximate GPS location.  With a POTS line, the operator would receive your actual address, and would then be able to dispatch the appropriate emergency resources.

If you are a business owner, you really need to publish a phone number if you want customers to reach you.  POTS lines are a reliable choice for voice calls, faxes and alarms.  Even if you are using a cellular or IP-based alarm system, traditional landlines can add redundancy to your security plan.

At SmartCom, we have the best IP Telephony, but we also offer the best of analog, copper-based POTS lines to our business and residential customers.

Traditional phone lines can be an economical alternative with a starting price of just $21.95, and full-featured lines are under $30!  Contact our sales team today at 888-302-1125 for more information.
