SoTAP Broadband: The simple solution for businesses who can’t yet get fibre
Keeping your business connected through the Great British Switch Off!
What Is SoTAP Broadband?
The Great British Switch Off is well underway — and for many businesses, it’s raising one big question:
“What happens if I still can’t get fibre?”
That’s where SoTAP comes in.
SoTAP (Single Order Transitional Access Product) is a broadband service designed for areas that still rely on copper connections. It gives you internet access without needing a traditional phone line — and crucially, it works seamlessly with today’s VoIP digital phone systems.
In simple terms, SoTAP is the bridge between copper and fibre. It lets your business switch to a digital phone setup even if fibre broadband hasn’t reached your street yet.
Why SoTAP Matters for Your Business?
When the old PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) is switched off, every traditional landline in the UK will stop working — that includes phone lines, alarms, lifts, card machines, and fax lines.
For businesses in rural or hard-to-reach areas, that’s a major concern. You might not have fibre yet, but you still need your phones and broadband to keep your business running.
That’s why SoTAP exists. It’s a smart, reliable option that gives you:
✅ Broadband without a traditional phone line
✅ Compatibility with VoIP phone systems
✅ A future-ready setup for the PSTN switch-off
✅ A connection that keeps your business running until fibre arrives
