Unlocking the Value in Your Legacy PSTN
In the evolving telecommunications landscape, transforming legacy networks is essential for service providers to stay competitive. Nokia’s PSTN Smart Transform solution offers a strategic pathway to migrate outdated Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) systems to an efficient, ultra-broadband IP network architecture. This migration reduces operational costs and opens new revenue streams, turning a potential liability into a robust competitive advantage.
As a leader in PSTN transformation solutions, Nokia leverages its extensive field experience and industry-leading ultra-broadband portfolio to facilitate successful large-scale network and business migration projects. The PSTN Smart Transform solution promises fast, reliable migration that maintains service quality and fosters customer loyalty.
Taking a Holistic Approach to PSTN Transformation
PSTN transformation is not merely a technological upgrade – it’s a comprehensive change that impacts every facet of a service provider’s business.
Nokia’s PSTN Smart Transform empowers providers to take control of this transformation through a holistic approach that encompasses four key areas:
Strategy

Why Migrate Your PSTN Services?
According to Infonetics Research, PSTN services will support 70% of fixed voice users in 2017. This statistic underscores the enduring value of PSTN services and their potential to generate significant revenue. However, to harness this potential, network transformation is crucial.
An effective PSTN transformation strategy allows service providers to:
Avoid Growing Maintenance Costs
Legacy products and technologies become increasingly expensive to maintain over time. Transforming the network mitigates these costs.
Protect Critical PSTN Voice Revenues
Protecting the revenue from existing PSTN services becomes essential as users migrate to wireless and broadband services.
Reduce Cost to Serve
Moving services to a more efficient network infrastructure lowers operational costs and helps comply with stringent green regulations.
