The networks are changing. Is your alarm path keeping up?

The analogue telephone networks are being switched off across Europe, and 2G and 3G are being phased out. This affects the emergency phones in lifts that rely on older technology.

You do not need to replace everything at once. But do not put it off for too long. It is nothing to rush, but not something to forget either.

Take the opportunity to plan the transition while you still have plenty of time.

With SafeLine SL6 Orion you upgrade your existing SL6 units with a 4G module through a firmware update. No hardware swap, nothing to scrap, and EN81-28 compliance stays intact throughout.

Whatever you have today, we can help: if you have an older SafeLine phone or another brand, we will help you forward, with support all the way.

Everything gathered in Orion

The emergency phone and the sensor in the lift connect to Orion through SafeLine SIM. Orion logs, passes the alarm on to the alarm receiving centre, and gives you an overview.

Frequently asked questions

What happens to the lift alarm when the analogue networks are switched off?
The connection needs to move to 4G or IP. In addition, alarm identification via DTMF tones can become unreliable on modern networks. SL6 Orion sends the identification digitally through Orion, independently of the voice channel.
Is switching to 4G enough?
No. 4G ensures the call connects, but the alarm identification still travels as a tone unless it moves to a digital channel. For a reliable alarm path, the identification needs to be digital.
Can we upgrade existing SafeLine SL6 units?
Yes. In many cases, SL6 units with a 4G module can be upgraded via firmware to digital alarm identification, without a hardware swap.
How do we get started?
Get in touch and we will review your lift portfolio and plan the transition with you, so your emergency phones are ready for the analogue switch-off.
