VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) is a form of Internet
Telephony - the process of sending voice in digital packets over
the Internet rather than the protocols of the traditional
telephone network. Through switching and routing processes, the
traditional phone network can also be accessed by VOIP users.
Qzip.net provides two ways to access VOIP currently:
ATA (Analog Telephone Adaptor)
An ATA is a hardware device that converts analog signals to
digital to send over the Internet. Using the device to connect
your traditional landline handset to your PC or router, you can
then make and receive calls via the Internet.
When you make a call to someone, this is the basic process:
- The ATA converts the analog signal to digital
- Qzip.net then determines whether the person
you're trying to call has VOIP support or has a standard
landline and routes the call accordingly, converting it back
to analog if necessary.
IP Phones
An IP phone looks just like a normal telephone but is "out of
the box" digital signal compatible. Just plug it in to your
computer via a USB port or into your router, open an account
with Qzip.net and you're all set to go with a standard telephone
number that people can call you on.
