The UK’s analogue phone network vanishes on 31 December 2025 . After that date, every copper handset in every guestroom, lobby, and corridor will fall silent. PMC Telecom, the Manchester-based hospitality VoIP authority, has spent two decades engineering the perfect escape plan. Their pre-staged, antibacterial, PoE-powered hotel phones arrive ready to plug in, dial out, and keep guests connected—no adapters, no drama, no downtime.

PMC Telecom: Your Migration Command Centre

Since 2003, PMC Telecom has shipped over 250,000 handsets from its 12,000 sq ft warehouse in Trafford Park. Same-day dispatch before 3 pm keeps projects on schedule. Direct partnerships with Snom, Fanvil, Mitel, and Yealink guarantee stock and firmware updates. Every phone leaves the warehouse factory-staged : custom logo faceplate, ten speed-dial keys, emergency plan, and auto-provision URL. Plug into any PoE switch and the phone wakes up with your branding and extensions in under a minute.

2025-Proof Features That Matter

Full SIP/VoIP means the phones work the day after the analogue cut-off—no clunky ATA boxes required. JIS-Z2801 antibacterial plastic kills 99.9 % of surface bacteria within 24 hours, a non-negotiable in post-pandemic travel. PoE 802.3af eliminates wall warts—one Ethernet cable delivers power and data, slashing installation time by 60 %. A high-visibility red message-waiting lamp glows from across the room and pairs with 98 % of PBX voicemail systems. Ten programmable faceplate keys put Housekeeping, Room Service, Concierge, and Wake-Up at the guest’s fingertip. A USB-A 5 V/2 A charging port keeps modern travellers from hunting for sockets. The reversible cradle flips for nightstand or wall-mount, fitting any room layout without extra brackets.

Models for Every Room and Budget

The Fanvil H2S is the budget corridor champion—compact, wall-mounted, and perfect for staff zones or lifts. The Snom H80 dominates standard guestrooms with its 2.4-inch colour screen, single SIP line, and unbeatable price point; over 47,000 units shipped in 2024 alone. For suites and villas, the Snom HD101 DECT pairs a sleek IP base with a cordless handset, letting guests answer spa bookings from the balcony. Front-desk teams rely on the Mitel 6910 , a six-line powerhouse with a 3.5-inch colour display. Executives and workation travellers demand the Yealink T57W , a 7-inch touchscreen beast supporting 16 SIP lines and native Microsoft Teams.

Real Hotels, Real Results

A 312-room coastal resort in Cornwall swapped 300 analogue phones for Snom H80 units. Total cost: £15,288 versus a £46,800 legacy quote. Technicians used existing Cat5e cabling and finished in three nights. Guest satisfaction on TripAdvisor jumped 14 %. A Manchester airport hotel installed Fanvil H2S units in corridors and shared kitchens—one speed-dial to 24-hour reception slashed night-porter calls by 71 %. A 22-suite London boutique equipped every suite with Snom HD101 DECT; guests now answer concierge calls poolside, lifting repeat bookings by 19 %.
