In the process of making a traditional
phone call, your voice is converted into a regular telephone signal and then
the signal is transmitted through the telephone lines. When arriving at the
receiver’s telephone, the telephone signal will be restored into your voice. However,
VoIP for business works in a
different way. To be specific, the voice of a caller is converted into a
digital signal that is bound to travel over the Internet.
If you dial a VoIP
phone on the computer, the cable modem converts your voice into
a regular telephone signal, which is transmitted over the Internet. If you use
a special VoIP phone or a regular phone to make a voice call, the phone adapter
will convert your voice into a regular signal, which is transmitted over the
Internet to the caller.
In
general, VoIP for business offers
two main benefits. On the one hand, collaboration among the employees of your
company is enhanced. It allows the business communication with each other and
share the information in real time, improving the productivity in the end. On
the other hand, a lot of money is saved. In general, the telephone bills take
up a large part of operating costs in a company. After you use this new
technology, you just need to pay for a broadband connection and the related
equipments.
