What is VOIP and SIP?
VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol, an IP telephony technology that uses broadband Internet to make phone calls through a computer. SIP stands for Session Initiation Protocol. which is an industry standard for VoIP. To make phone calls over the internet, you do not need any telephony hardware, all you need is a soft phone. A soft phone is a software program with a telephone-like user interface. There are many SIP soft phones available on the internet, such as X-lite (free). Voicent software works as the replacement of your soft phone, plus many auto dialing capabilities. For multi-line system, each line is started as a SIP soft phone. Unlike traditional telephony hardware such as dialogic board, Voicent system has no limit as how many lines it can go up. It can support as many lines as your computer power and your internet bandwidth allows.
