White paper New Generation Networks for alarm communications
Standard Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) services are progressively being replaced by high speed networks across Europe with a Voice over IP backbone. Telecom operators, regulators and government agencies have developed a plan in each European country to organize the migrations. The years 2025 to 2030 appear to be the predicted time frame to complete the migration toward New Generation Networks (NGN).
For transmissions of alarms there are many combinations of alternate single and dual path solutions and products available on the market that are not based on analogue PSTN.
