The primary advantage of VoIP phone systems over plain old telephone service (POTS) is saving money on long-distance and multi-site calling.

By converting voice calls into data and transferring them over the Internet businesses are able to avoid traditional rate charges by carriers. VoIP systems utilize hardware-based IP phones to plug and play directly into standard computer network ports.

IP phones functionally operate the same as traditional LAN line phones but typically have additional features (call waiting, call parking, call forwarding, call transfer, etc) via physical buttons on the actual phone.

SIP technology is open standard protocol so SIP devices reduce the need for:

• Special wiring - Although CAT 5e or higher wiring is required for any IP Phones that connect on a company's internal network, CAT 6a and above is typically used in today's markets for carrying high bandwidth / high demand sessions on an internal network
  
• Coordinating locations for new or existing extensions -IP based phones need to connect and register with your VoIP network's SIP server, at which point it can be remotely configured
