  • Voice over IP (VoIP) Image

    Voice over IP (VoIP)

    Voice over IP (VoIP) is a technology that allows the Internet to be used for transmitting voice conversations. This technology has several advantages over standard telephone systems. Firstly VoIP can be much cheaper as there is no need to pay the line rental on numerous phone lines. Call charges are typically cheaper too, especially those overseas. Flexibility is also much greater as the phone number is not tied to a physical line and can move with a user or even allow remote users to participate in a company phone system with minimal cost.

    VoIP is not without its disadvantages. Firstly compared with traditional phone systems it is relatively new and with a wide range of hardware and service providers there can be some compatibility issues. The most likely problem areas have always been voice quality and reliability. If a company had one Internet connection with several voice connections as well as email and general Internet traffic sharing, voice quality would probably vary. Also if the Internet connection dropped the calls would be cut off.

    To get the best out of VoIP it is important to design the system correctly. This design will include the following. Fault tolerance, a minimum of two Internet connections will maintain both VoIP and other Internet services if a line fails. Quality of Service will prioritise VoIP traffic so that voice will not become broken or jittery if a line becomes busy. The correct amount of bandwidth must be planned carefully to give acceptable service. Last but not least is porting of numbers. It is possible to keep your terrestrial numbers and port them over to your VoIP system. This is not an instant process and needs to be planned with the phone company to minimise down time. Testing is very important with VoIP to ensure the system performs according to the design.
