What's up with ATAs?

[johnoliphant1]

I’m in need of a new ATA in one of my buildings. Rather than use old ATA-187s I’d like to move forward and get new ones. However, the newest model that I know about, the ATA-191, is already EOL and I can’t buy one in time to get support…March 14, 2020 is the last day for that.

Is there a newer model? And if not, what’s the future for this technology? I foresee needing my ATAs for quite a while (elevators, fax machines, specialized IVR systems, etc) and with POTS lines getting scarce maybe needing them even more.

Am I missing something, is there a new way to handle the ATA function or should I just buy an ATA-191 and live without support?

I think you're looking at the ATA 190 EOL/EOS notice, don't think there's even an EOS/EOL for the 191

And there's an ATA 192 now

I think you are correct!

I was reading the 190 EOL as if it applied to the 190 series. Thanks for the correction, it looks like I'll be buying a couple 191s.

Thanks!
