IP Telephone Systems

Ipedge and business PhoneBusinesses are switching over to the new VoIP business telephone systems. The reasons are quite obvious – access to advanced telephony features that come with VoIP services. Low call rates associated with IP telephones is it’s biggest attraction. IP telephone systems are quickly replacing the old PSTN systems, and the days are not far when PSTN will be retired completely.

SIP Trunking

One of the most advanced features offers in both IPEdge and Strata CIX is SIP trunking.

Traditionally, phone calls are made through a PSTN network where the exchange is hosted in the service provider’s premises. The exchange is connected to your office through PRI or analog lines. When you lift the phone, you get connected immediately to the exchange and you can make the calls. Generally, there is a charge for every call you make, as well as minimum monthly charges. In this environment, for Internet connection, you need a separate line coming into your office. This could be a data or broadband circuit. Most data or broadband circuits have fixed monthly charges with unlimited usage that also extends to voice calls.

With SIP trunking, traditional phone lines are not needed any more. Instead, voice and data are transported over your data or broadband connections. As long as the party on the other side of your call also has an IP connection, the circuit stays digital and the call travels over the Internet connection only.

Let us assume you make a call to a regular land line or a mobile phone. This has to travel outside the Internet connection. From your office to the ISP provider, the call goes through the same Internet connection. There, you are connected to an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP), who does the switching from IP Telephony to analog or cell circuit and back to IP Telephony. You can instruct the ITSP to choose the route with the lowest call rates, so you end up saving money when making the call. When you receive a call from an external line, the caller pays for the call.

SIP trunking is a great way to keep you communication completely IP based and, at the same time, have the ability to make and receive calls from anyone or anywhere without incurring huge long distance charges.
