IP Phone


Tuesday, January 29, 2008


The Internet has completely transformed telecommunications as we know it. With an IP phone (Internet protocol phone), you can make more calls to anywhere in the world for less money. It is the new frontier for small businesses looking to build a communications infrastructure at a fraction of the cost of traditional phone systems.

An IP phone uses Voice over IP (VoIP) technology, which allows telephone calls to be made over the Internet. Phones operating over VoIP lines must be compatible with Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), which is the technology that allows them to operate on the Internet. For your business needs, you can either invest in a new VoIP phone, have your traditional business phone reconfigured for compatibility with SIP or use your computer with a standard headset for your business phone needs.

The latter option is possible with a simple software-based Softphone which gives your computer telephone capabilities. The software allows you to dial directly from your desktop, all at a lower price because you are staying off of traditional phone lines.

RingCentral offers VoIP calling over your IP phone or Softphone with no hardware to install. You receive additional features that an analog phone can't support, such as fax to e-mail, real time call logs and easy system management, all with just a click of your mouse.
