Yes. Ooma AirDial is designed to support systems that currently rely on POTS lines.
Replace POTS lines without disrupting your buildings.
Ooma AirDial provides real estate and facilities teams an easy and reliable way to keep critical systems like elevator phones, fire alarms, and entry systems online across their portfolios.
A POTS line replacement solution for property owners, managers, and operators.
The real estate challenge: Rising costs and growing risk.
Across residential, commercial, industrial and mixed-use properties, POTS lines still support essential building systems.
As copper lines disappear, real estate teams face:
- Rising monthly phone line costs.
- Limited notice before service changes.
- Greater risk during inspections.
- Increased exposure if critical systems lose connectivity.
Industry excellence makes AirDial the solution real estate professionals trust.

Why POTS line replacement is now a priority.
Copper POTS lines were once dependable. Today, they are becoming harder to maintain and more expensive to keep. Carriers are accelerating retirement timelines, and real estate portfolios are often left reacting instead of planning.
For buildings with safety and compliance requirements, waiting until a line fails is not a viable strategy.
Connectivity that works across every property.
Ooma AirDial replaces traditional POTS lines and is designed for real estate portfolios of any size.
- Supports critical systems like elevator phones, fire alarms, entry systems, and emergency devices.
- Provides reliable connection with battery backup and redundant connectivity.
- Replaces high-cost copper lines with predictable monthly pricing and reduced overall spend.
- Installs without new wiring or disruption to tenants, staff, or daily operations.
- Provides centralized visibility and simplified management across properties and teams.
Life-safety compliance for critical systems across properties.
How AirDial works.
Ooma AirDial connects to existing building systems just like a traditional phone line. Calls are routed over modern IP connectivity using redundant LTE and Ethernet paths.
If one network path becomes unavailable, traffic is automatically routed over the other to help keep critical systems connected without manual intervention.
Compliance confidence for inspections and ongoing operations.
Reliable connectivity is essential for life-safety systems and inspection readiness. Ooma AirDial is designed to support systems that require continuous service, helping properties remain operational as copper infrastructure is phased out.
AirDial is compliant for use in the support of elevator emergency phones, fire alarm panels, building entry systems, pool and courtesy phones, emergency call boxes and annunciator panels.
Deploy easily across your portfolio of properties.
Start with a few properties and scale over time. Ooma AirDial supports phased rollouts with centralized visibility across locations.
Teams work from one simple management view, with flexible billing by entity or location and the option to test with a proof of concept before scaling.
