As traditional copper telephone lines (POTS) continue to be phased out globally, organizations are racing to upgrade legacy systems that rely on analog connectivity. Whether it's for elevator emergency phones, alarm panels, or fax machines, the challenge lies in replacing aging infrastructure with a reliable, future-proof solution — and doing it with minimal disruption.

Enter Smart Path — a new approach embedded in Vola’s VoIP and LTE ATA hardware that ensures always-on voice communication, regardless of network or power failures. Whether using our PR08-Pro (Dual WAN VoIP ATA) or PR12 (4G VoIP ATA), Smart Path combines intelligent connectivity, failover logic support to provide a seamless transition from POTS to modern IP voice.

VoIP + SIP: Modernizing Legacy Devices

Smart Path begins with VoIP and SIP-based POTS replacement. Devices like the PR08-Pro allow analog endpoints to connect to SIP servers over dual WAN ports, supporting PoE-out, network failover, and up to 8 FXS ports. With Smart Path, the device monitors WAN health in real-time and can automatically reroute SIP traffic to the secondary WAN port or even an external power source during an outage — ensuring calls never drop, even in crisis.

LTE/5G Wireless Resilience

For remote or mobile deployments, Smart Path shines in our PR12 — a 4G LTE ATA with dual SIM slots and a built-in battery. If one carrier loses signal, the PR12 can switch to the backup SIM. Smart Path ensures that voice connectivity is always maintained, whether the device is in an elevator shaft, a construction site, or a rural medical center. This makes it ideal for environments where fixed broadband isn't an option.

Smart Path = Intelligent Failover + Power Resilience

What makes Smart Path truly smart is its power and path awareness:

• Dual network failover (WAN-to-WAN, WAN-to-LTE, SIM1 to SIM2)
• Built-in battery backup
• Anti-package lost during weak network conditions within POTS Media SBC

This makes our devices not only robust but also adaptable to rapidly changing on-site conditions. Whether there's a network failure, power outage, or hardware disconnection, Smart Path keeps analog voice services alive — quietly in the background.

The Future is Cloud-Connected

All Smart Path-enabled devices are also cloud-managed through VolaCloud, allowing real-time monitoring of path status, battery levels, SIM usage, and SIP registration. Configuration, firmware upgrades, and alerts are centralized — enabling telecom providers and MSPs to deploy and maintain thousands of POTS replacement endpoints with confidence.
