What is an Analogue Terminal Adapter (ATA) for regular phones?
VoIP Analogue Terminal Adapters (ATA) are hardware devices that act as a Gateway between analogue devices (regular headphones, cordless phones, or fax machines) and any data network or Internet link, allowing them to place or receive FREE or low cost calls over a private Intranet or the public Internet. ATAs are the most suitable solution for residential users that have limited or no experience in using Desktop PCs. They can be used jointly with a regular cordless phone, offering maximum functionality, sharp quality, and no or limited cost to the end user. ATAs could also be used by small enterprises that would like to implement a low budget solution to integrate Voice and Data services using their existing LAN infrastructure and Internet access.
