VoIP Phone Service has traced a different path of connectivity that is far off from the traditional methods of telephony. The Internet has played a vital role in the development and growth of this service. Now it is possible for people to send voice though a broadband Internet network instead of connecting wires to send voice. This transformation has led to an enormous applaud for the services related to Voice over IP. Now, IP telephony is not just restricted to computer-to-computer connections. In fact, it has risen from this stature and verbal communique routed through the Internet can be accessed using traditional phone instruments as well.

Providers offering these services have now become a mainstream force to reckon with and people seem to be content with all the value added services that are being offered to them.

Features of a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) such as auto-attendant, conference bridges, call forwarding and extension dialing are made available with such services, without the users having to pay anything extra for any of these.

The broadband phone VoIP service allow people to avail everything on a phone line. Starting form conference calling to sending and receiving of pictures and videos simultaneously while making the calls- quite a lot is possible. The sound quality too remains sharp due to the presence of broadband that efficiently transfers voice. The voice is transferred as digital signals after being converted from the analog to the digital format. So, there remains no chance of any loss as far as the quality of voice is concerned. As the Internet is brought to use, so the system is also made fax compatible. Now it is possible to send or receive fax at low rates. There is also the facility of making 3-way calling with the Internet support and thus a conference can easily be initiated between the different parties.
