VoIP and Cloud have emerged as the biggest technologies which SMB’s cannot afford to miss. This is depicted by the fact that VoIP is fast becoming a necessity in day-to-day corporate communications rather than being a luxury commodity. This is because with the advent of VoIP, owning high-tech equipment is not a big asking for any sized business. Moreover at an economic cost, it provides better features to the organization as compared to the traditional systems.
For these reasons, businesses are aggressively searching for an absolute and leading technology phone that would take their communication system to another level altogether. On advanced levels, companies are trying to take forward the concept of VoIP by evolving it into SIP Trunking which is based on VoIP itself. If they are able to achieve this, conferencing, calling and messaging would be a piece of cake for them.
Know more about Turnkey SIP Trunking
To communicate within an office, a PBX system is more than enough. But when the conversation has to be made with the people who are not in the office, there is a need to install SIP Trunking over the PBX system. This installation is fairly easy.
SIP Trunk is very different from the traditional telephone system in a way that there are no wires laid down in the SIP Trunking setup. It uses the fixed PSTN lines and extends the existing PSTN network allowing companies to forego the wires that run in the entire office.
Benefits of Turnkey SIP Trunking
SIP Trunking provides an option of high-tech communication services to small and medium businesses at a cost which is unexpectedly low.
Few benefits which businesses can expect out of Turnkey SIP Trunking are:
- When expanding the business setup, no need to install new PSTN lines.
- Effective use of the bandwidth as both voice and video messages are transferred on the same channel.
- Redundancy prevails as the number of servers used is high.
- Long distance calls are cheaper, almost comparable to the local call charges.
Businesses are Exploring…
Turnkey SIP Trunking is a subject of high scrutiny among many of the small and medium businesses. The basic reason behind this is the cost saving that is achieved through this technology as compared to PRIs and Analog Circuits. Moreover the long distance calls can be made at very low cost as compared to the cost of calls made by traditional telephony. Flexibility is also a major benefit of this service.
Types of SIP Trunk Connections
There are certain types of SIP trunk connections. A Dedicated line or a Leased line is one of them. It is the most reliable and secure of the lot. In a Dedicated line, VPN i.e., Virtual Private Network is not required. The call carrying potential of this line is the highest. It is also the most costly of all the available options.
Another option is the Dedicated line that is allocated with a different IP traffic. Security is not a problem with this one either, but because of the traffic, call dropping and interference is more. It also does not require a VPN to work.
