Talking SenSys - 1 - What Is VoIP

Will Richards of SenSys | Smart Network Technology explains what VoIP - Voice Over Internet Protocol - really is.

1 - What is VoIP
VOIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol.
It’s the future of business communications.
Instead of all business phone calls going through your ISDN lines or PSDN lines all the calls go through your broadband connection.
So that means there is only one line coming through the business which is your broadband connection. So without having so many lines, you reduce your number of lines which reduces your phone bill by reducing your line rental.
With broadband speeds increasing, and VoIP becoming more widely adopted – few years ago, you know, before 2010, where fibre wasn’t rolled around most of the country, VoIP was unreliable. Whereas with the introduction of e-fibre into most areas of the country and dedicated broadband, it just makes sense to use your broadband connection for VoIP whilst saving at the same time.
