Traditional PBX phone systems are replacing their analogue (PSTN) lines (trunks) and digital channels (ISDN2E & ISDN30E) with IP (Internet Protocol) telephony. This will enable the user to make calls over the internet, via their LAN (local area / office network) using VoIP (Voice over IP). All this is ultimately through their broadband connection (ADSL or SDSL).

As these PBX systems are changed they will use a mixture of traditional telephony and VoIP. For the VoIP side, they will require new IP phones. These are specific to the make and model of the systems, i.e. a Meridian Option system will use Meridian IP phones, an Avaya Definity system will use Avaya IP phones, etc.

Products of this sort are system specific IP phones. They will not work on any other system, or independently, without the system.

If you subscribe to a VoIP or SIP service, or have a system that uses SIP or WiFi technology these are the phones you will need. They usually plug into your broadband though a router or adaptor, and you will have a unique IP address.

You may need to check the compatibility of these phones with any router or adaptor that you use.

All of the Sip and Voip Protocols work using the method detailed below:
