Types of VoIP Networks
VoIP
internet telephony is a highly efficient technology that is
used to transmit voice conversations over a data network,
through the use of Internet Protocol.
Most consumer VoIP services make use of the internet to transmit
the data from one user to another, but any IP network can be
used to the same purpose. For example, many cable providers
offer their own digital phone services, which transmit data over
private IP networks.
Digital phone networks are thought to provide somewhat better
service and security that internet based VoIP services. With
standard VoIP
providers constantly
improving their broa
dband phone services, however, this gap is quickly closing,
and the more expensive private digital phone services are
finding it harder and harder to compete effectively.
Of course, with technological standards constantly evolving, new
types of VoIP networks are emerging that don't use wires at all.
Wireless
VoIP phones operate on special digital networks, and can be
a lot cheaper to use than normal cell phones.
