IP TELEPHONY?
IP Telephony digitizes voice, sending it across a data network. When voice and data information are sent over the same network great scales of efficiency are realized. There are many multi-site organizations which have separate networks–one for voice and one for data. These networks can be converged to support both data and voice on one network–saving money and management overhead.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IP TELEPHONY?
IP Telephony will save money. In cases where phone cable is not installed or new construction is under way, a single cable can be run for both computers and phones-saving installation and cabling costs. Additionally, the IP Telephony infrastructure uses leased data lines more efficiently–some standard phone lines can be disconnected to reduce recurring costs.
An IP phone system is easier to manage. Unlike legacy phone systems, changes can be made from an internet browser by authorized personnel. To make it even easier, Computer Solutions trains staff members to be self-sufficient. There’s no need to coordinate outside resources.
A work environment can be more secure with IP telephony. It’s easier to put more phones in more places giving staff members better access to communications.
An IP phone system is future-proof. Legacy systems are built with static, old-world technology. IP systems work great now and have the flexibility to mold into future applications. The future brings unknown business communications issues, so it makes sense to invest in a flexible, programmable system.

How IP Telephony Works:
- Network/computer cable is used when installing new wire to a building or room.
- Phones and computers are all connected to the same network (the same cable).
- When a call is placed, network equipment tracks the voice and data on the same cable and keeps them separate.
- A few standard phone lines are centrally shared for calls going outside of the organization’s network.
- Calls can be made between locations (inside the network) without using phone lines at all, thus reducing the recurring costs.
