In an increasingly digital world, the telecom industry is undergoing rapid transformation—driven largely by the rise of VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol).

VoIP has revolutionized real-time communication, enabling users to connect, collaborate, and engage more efficiently than ever before.

In the blog below, we explore how VoIP is reshaping the communication landscape—and invite you to join us on this journey of innovation.

What is Voice over IP (VoIP)?
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a technology that enables voice communication over the Internet instead of traditional telephone networks. It allows users to make and receive calls, transmit voice data, and stay connected without relying on conventional landlines—commonly referred to as POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service).

How Long Has VoIP Been in the Telecom Sector?

  • VoIP technology began to see its growth and attention only in the mid-1990s when initial experiments were being carried out.

  • And by the end of the same year, VoIP started to see commercialization with several companies starting to adopt the tech allowing users to make calls over the internet.

  • Understanding that VoIP helps reduce calling costs with improved internet connectivity, the technology saw tremendous growth.

  • Hence, several telecom providers began to integrate VoIP into their circuit-switched telephony.

  • Now, you might ask, how is VoIP so qualitative and reliable? Well, the answer lies in codecs, QoS improvements, and standardization efforts.

  • Thus today, VoIP is a technology that is used by many operators and businesses around for voice communication, video conferencing, and other solutions.
