What is VoIP? (Voice over Internet Protocol)

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a modern technology that lets you make phone calls through your internet connection instead of using traditional phone lines. Instead of using traditional telephone networks, VoIP converts your voice into digital signals and sends them securely over the internet.

How Does VoIP Actually Work?

With VoIP, your voice is converted into small packets of digital data. These packets travel over the internet to reach the person you're calling. On the receiving end, these packets are reassembled, allowing clear voice communication between you and the other party.

This simple yet powerful method enables high-quality voice communication without relying on traditional telephone lines.

Key Components of VoIP

To better understand VoIP, here are the most important components:

• SIP (Session Initiation Protocol):
  SIP is the technology that starts, manages, and ends VoIP calls over the internet.
• SIP Accounts and Users:
  Your unique account credentials (username and password) used to connect and register your device (softphone, IP phone, or PBX system) with IllyVoIP.
• SIP Trunks:
  Virtual lines that connect your VoIP system (such as PBX systems like 3CX or MagnusBilling) with the public telephone network, allowing multiple simultaneous calls.
• DID Numbers (Direct Inward Dialing):
  Virtual phone numbers allowing you to receive calls from traditional phone networks directly on your VoIP devices or forward calls to international numbers or external systems.
