The UK-wide Digital Switchover is underway and will affect numerous devices within businesses - from telephone lines to lifts, alarms and payment machines. Connecting Cambridgeshire in partnership with FarrPoint is hosting free informational events and webinars to help businesses adapt to the switchover, ensuring a smooth transition.
Telecoms providers (like BT, Virgin Media, Sky & TalkTalk) are decommissioning their analogue services and are moving to fully digital networks across the whole of the UK. This means that analogue phone lines in residential and business premises are being replaced by digital equivalents. For businesses, this transition may mean you need to upgrade existing systems such as telephone lines, alarms, lift alarms and payment machines.
The transition has already started and is set to be completed by January 2027, therefore we urge businesses to attend our information sessions to better understand how they might be affected.

Each session includes a 30-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute Q&A.
We are also organising two face-to-face sessions in Peterborough and Cambourne in September. Registration will open soon, but if you'd like to pre-book a spot, email [email protected].
Don’t miss this opportunity to stay informed and prepared. Sign up today and ensure your business is ready for the Digital Switchover. If you have any further questions about the events, get in touch.
Connectivity is important. It drives business and society, bringing communities and commerce together. That's why we use our insight and experience to connect people and business.
