A SIP Trunk is a streaming and media service that permits businesses that have a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) installed to use Voice over Internet Protocol using the same connection as the internet. This means that the Internet replaces the conventional telephone trunk allowing businesses to communicate with fixed and mobile telephone subscribers worldwide.
Advantages of migrating to SIP Trunks:
Lower line rental costs
- Normally around £10 per line per month this means for a 20 line business could create a saving of over £12,000 over five years.
Flexibility
- You can expand and decrease the amount of lines you pay for as your business expands or simply to suit your busy/quiet periods.
Improved disaster planning
- If your office has to close, for whatever reason, you can redirect your DDI numbers to temporary site without ever having to miss a call.
Reduced costs
- IP costs less than ISDN with cheaper calls, free internal calls between DDIs (including international calls) and lower line rental for multi site offices.
The determining factor as to whether SIP trunks are right for you is the quality of your connection. If there are more than 10 users you will need to ensure that you are connected to fast business grade broadband to ensure quality of speech.
