What Is VOIP and How does it work?
Voice Over Internet Protocol (also referred to as Internet Telephony) is the transportation of telephone calls over the Internet, connected either via an Internet Adapter that connects your telephone and/or fax to your high speed Internet modem, or by a telephone handset which you purchase that is especially designed to handle IP calls, or by multimedia PCs using PC-to-PC, or PC-to-phone software. VOIP converts your analogue phone conversation into packets of digital data that are sent across the Internet (just like email or a web page), and then reassembles them into sound at the other end for a crisp, clear telephone experience.
