What is
VoIP?
VoIP is an acronym for Voice over Internet Protocol. Instead
of using a traditional analog phone line, VoIP technology lets people make
voice telephone calls via an Internet connection and bypass the telephone
company completely. VoIP technology turns a user's voice into a digital signal
that is sent through the Internet to the person being called. When the digital
signal reaches the person on the other end, it is converted back to a
traditional telephone signal. While some VoIP providers may limit users to
calling only those also using VoIP technology, others provide calls to anyone
with a telephone number.
