SIP Trunking

A Smarter Alternative to ISDN

What Is a SIP Trunk?

Think of a SIP trunk as a virtual version of ISDN.

It connects your phone system to the outside world—just like ISDN—but it’s:

  • Delivered over the internet
  • Cheaper
  • More scalable
  • Future-proof

With the UK’s ISDN network shutting down in 2027, SIP trunking is the logical step for businesses that want to keep their on-premises systems without moving fully to cloud VoIP.

 

Is SIP Trunking Right for You?

Yes—if your business has:

  • A traditional or modern on-premises PBX
  • Numbers you want to retain
  • No immediate plan to move to hosted VoIP
  • Concerns about cost or downtime during migration

Even older phone systems can work with SIP using a gateway that translates SIP to ISDN.

Built-In Flexibility

  • Add or remove call capacity as needed
  • Divert individual numbers or entire ranges instantly
  • Route calls to mobiles, backup offices or answering services in seconds
