Voice over IP Applications
MultiVOIP is ideal for multi-location businesses looking to reduce toll charges associated with intra-
of ce calling. It is designed to help a company maximize investments they’ve already made in their
data network infrastructure and voice equipment. Using our company example, the following are some
of the many applications for a VOIP network:
Of ce-to-Of ce Communication
A VOIP network can be as small as two of ces or as large as hundreds of of ces. Each of ce installs
and con gures a VOIP solution on their network to begin placing calls or sending faxes to other
of ces on the VOIP network. This allows a company to extend its telecommunications network to
remote of ces without the expense of replacing the phone system at each location. Our company
example shows a typical three of ce VOIP network.
Create Off-Premise Extensions for Telecommuters
Extend the reach of a customer’s PBX into home of ce locations. Simply connect a VOIP solution to
the PBX at the corporate of ce, and another VOIP solution at the home of ce. Now, anyone can place
calls to the home of ce by dialing an extension number. And, the home of ce can dial others on the
VOIP network without incurring long distance charges. In our company example, we have now added
two telecommuters to the VOIP network.
