Why Upgrade

Reliable Communication for the Systems That Protect Lives: PCE Connect provides modern, code-compliant communication solutions that keep life-safety and operational devices connected- even as copper phone lines are retired nationwide. Our mission is to protect the systems that protect people.

Compliance Matters

Compliance Matters Safety, compliance, and reliability shouldn’t depend on aging copper infrastructure. As carriers retire traditional POTS networks, organizations must ensure that fire alarms, elevators, emergency phones, security systems, and other critical devices have a dependable communication path.

Compliance Expectations Have Changed

Many devices still rely on dial-tone signaling, but POTS lines alone no longer satisfy national fire, elevator, or data-security regulations. Modern standards require supervised, reliable, and secure communication paths.

Fire & Life Safety

NFPA 72 recognizes managed solutions as compliant replacements for legacy copper lines.

Elevator Safety

ASME A17.1 requires emergency phones to maintain reliable, two-way communication.

Data & Payments

HIPAA and PCI standards require secure, encrypted communication pathways.

The Copper Shutdown Is Already Here

Copper landlines are being discontinued nationwide. Carriers are no longer required to repair or maintain copper routes, causing outages, rising monthly costs, and declining reliability. Life-safety systems cannot depend on unpredictable connectivity. Fire alarms, elevator emergency phones, and security systems all require stable communication-something aging copper can no longer provide.

FCC Mandates Allow Copper Retirement

Under FCC Order 19-72A1, telecom providers may retire copper-based voice services entirely. Transitioning to a modern, managed solution is now essential- not optional.
