Business Wire
Ooma, Inc., a smart communications platform for businesses and
consumers, today announced that the Ooma AirDial® solution for POTS
replacement now incorporates Ooma’s MultiPath technology, a unique
and patented feature that allows uninterrupted backup for
life-safety devices such as fire alarm panels and elevator
phones.

MultiPath, available now to all AirDial customers, creates a
continuous dual connection between AirDial and the Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN) by transmitting data packets
simultaneously through two links – AirDial’s wireless LTE network
and the customer’s existing broadband network.
Technically an active-active topology, MultiPath intelligently
monitors the flow of data packets, constantly judging the best
link. If one connection is disrupted by congestion, dropped packets
or latency, the other connection is automatically and instantly
used. If one connection goes offline, calls in progress continue
uninterrupted through the other connection.
This is distinctly different from the traditional failover
feature of other POTS replacement products, where one link is
designated as primary and the other as secondary. Only if the
primary link fails does the connection switch to the secondary
link. This disconnects any call in progress and requires
re-establishing a connection, which can take a full minute or more
and can be highly problematic during emergencies.
Ooma AirDial (https://www.ooma.com/airdial) helps businesses and
property managers survive the impending “copper sunset” of legacy
analog phone lines, also known informally as Plain Old Telephone
Service or POTS. Many life-safety and business-critical systems
such as fire-alarm panels, elevator phones, building entry systems,
burglar alarms and fax machines today rely on POTS connections.
Yet, in the wake of the Federal Communications Commission lifting
most regulations on carriers, monthly rates for POTS service are
soaring and reliability is declining.
Designed from the ground up as a turnkey solution for POTS
replacement, Ooma AirDial brings together hardware, software,
wireless connectivity and virtual analog phone lines in a single
package with a single monthly bill from one vendor. Remote device
management through an online portal makes it easy to monitor and
control AirDial units across multiple locations and for IT
consultants to supervise multiple accounts.
“Every second counts in an emergency and that’s why we’ve added
MultiPath technology to Ooma AirDial,” said Thad White, vice
president of product management for Ooma. “Our customers have told
us they want a POTS replacement solution that is resilient,
scalable and affordable. We’re proud to be one of the leaders in
the market by offering this unique level of protection.”
