But what really is VoIP?
VoIP is an acronym for Voice over Internet Protocol; it is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular copper phone line. A VoIP phone system connects to your Local Area Network (LAN) and uses it as the backbone of your system.
VoIP services enables one to make calls and connect through Internet. The service can allow you to make a call directly from a computer, a special VoIP phone, or a traditional phone connected to a special adapter. It enables calling to any telephone number — including local, long distance, mobile and international numbers.
What’s unique about TelOne VoIP?
Unlike other service providers who uses unsecure internet connections and cannot guarantee quality of service to transmit VoIP traffic, TelOne utilises secure VPN to connect between remote sites at no cost. The charges for this VPN is fixed monthly and does not fluctuate while with other providers, subscribers are charged for data traffic consumed plus the actual voice usage, hence they are billed for both Data and Voice for a single call.
TelOne VPN connections are encrypted hence even if voice traffic is intercepted, it cannot be interpreted guaranteeing maximum security to subscribers.
Tariffs
The TelOne VoIP service is competitive; at just 7 cents for off-net calls (mobile numbers, other service providers VoIP numbers and international VoIP numbers), 4 cents to the ordinary TelOne land-line numbers and absolutely free for on net calls on the TelOne VoIP platform (08627 numbers).
IP PBX
TelOne has also enhanced their service offering to provide end-to-end solutions including providing Customer Premise Equipment like handsets, IP PBX, PABX as well as Local Area Networking (LAN). Corporates can now take advantage of this service offering to reduce their communication expenditure in the face of constrained resources.
An IP PBX is a private branch exchange (telephone switching system within an enterprise) that switches calls between VoIP. Multiple IP PBX can be deployed at multiple sites and connected via VPN. This means geographical location is.
An IP PBX can also switch calls between a VoIP user and a traditional telephone user, or between two traditional telephone users in the same way that a conventional PBX does.
