VoIP, Voice over Internet Protocol, takes analog signals when you talk on the phone and turns into digital data which can be transmitted over the Internet. If you’ve never hear of VoIP, you need to be ready to change how you think about long distance phone calls. VoIP, is the future in long distance communications. So why the change? With VoIP software to make Internet phone calls, you by pass the phone companies (in many cases) and their charges. This revoluntionary technology has the potential to completely revamp the world’s phone system. But VoIP is not entirely new. Most likely your current LAN line phone company is making VoIP calls when you place long distance calls and have been for several years. Phone companies use VoIP technology to streamline their networks by rounting all their calls through a circuit switch into an IP gateway. By doing this they can significantly reduce their bandwidth to handle more calls. So the future of VoIP technology makes sense for the future both economically and any infrastructure needs. More businesses are installing VoIP software systems so the popularity is growing. However the biggest growth appears to be in the homes. The biggest reason for the change to VoIP technology is the flexibility of use and the reduction in cost to the consumer. Also, equipment technology is advancing allowing home users to have video phones so they can see who they are calling while they talk to them. Think about all the applications this could open up! Grandparents who live across the country can now see their grandchildren every time they call.
