for Businesses — Protect Your Building Before Your Phone Lines Go Away
AirDial by FluentStream replaces your old analog phone lines with a modern, reliable solution that works with the equipment you already have. No rewiring. No disruption. Just peace of mind.
Your POTS Lines Are Being Discontinued. Here's What's at Stake.
Traditional copper phone lines — known as POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) lines — are being retired by carriers across the country as part of an industry-wide shift away from aging analog infrastructure, often called the "copper sunset".
For most businesses, this means costs are rising fast — sometimes dramatically and without warning. But for buildings with fire alarms, elevator phones, security systems, fax machines, or emergency phones still running on those analog lines, it also means real compliance and safety risk.
If you haven't started planning to replace your POTS lines, now is the time.
AirDial is the straightforward POTS line replacement solution. It keeps your critical systems connected and your building protected, using the equipment you already have — while bringing your building into compliance with modern standards.

Fire Alarm Panels
Fire alarm systems require a reliable phone connection to reach monitoring stations — and most still rely on dedicated POTS lines. AirDial replaces those fire alarm phone lines while supporting fire safety compliance standards, with certifications from recognized authorities including NFPA, Cal Fire, and the FDNY.
Elevator Phones
Elevator emergency phones are required by law and must work when they are needed most. AirDial replaces dedicated elevator phone lines, keeps your building up to code, and can eliminate the high dedicated line costs many buildings are still paying today.
Security and Access Systems
Gate entry systems, front entry intercoms, building access controls, security cameras, and burglar alarms all stay connected on a secure, reliable signal.
Fax and Point of Sale
Keep fax machines and analog payment terminals running securely — including in healthcare, legal, and retail environments where compliance matters.
Emergency and Safety Phones
Pool phones, campus safety stations, parking lot call boxes, and blue light phones all require a dependable connection. AirDial supports them all.
Paging and Intercom Systems
Building-wide paging and intercom systems that run on analog connections continue working without any modifications.
