VOIP or “Voice over Internet Protocol” is the
technology that allows digitized audio to be transmitted over Intranets
and the Internet. Broadband telephone service is a revolutionary new
digital voice service that leverages VOIP to combine the power of your
phone and your high-speed Internet connection.
For the consumer, broadband telephone service is an
inexpensive alternative to traditional telephone communication over the
Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). VOIP covers
computer-to-computer, computer-to-telephone,
and telephone-based communications.
