voIP services and equipment

What is a sip trunk.
A SIP trunk is a virtual phone line that uses the internet to transmit voice, video, and other multimedia communication instead of traditional physical phone lines. It replaces multiple physical lines with a single, virtual connection from a company's Private Branch Exchange (PBX) to the public telephone network, allowing businesses to make and receive calls over the internet.

SIP trunks are the digital equivalent of traditional phone trunks, offering a more flexible and cost-effective way to manage business communication. Internet-based: They use a broadband internet connection to send and receive calls, breaking voice into digital packets for transmission. Replacing physical lines: SIP trunking is a modern alternative to older ISDN and analog phone lines, which are being phased out in many countries.

Beyond voice sip trunks carry unified communications services.
SIP trunks can carry video, instant messaging, and other multimedia telecommunication services. Businesses can easily add or remove virtual "channels" (lines) as needed, without the need for new physical hardware installation.
A SIP trunk acts as the link between a company's internal IP-PBX system and the external public telephone network.

We offer telecommunication products and services from full office PBX systems to unlocked cellular mobile smart-phones.
Gibber-Jabber can offer pre-paid voIP services and SIP Clients, as well as hardware such as ATA´s and gateways, as a new page on this site, this information will be updated to incorporate our prices and equipment's.

What is needed for voIP
A good internet connection, preferably with low latency connections, connectivity of voIP via satellite links is possible and works well, but for best functionality in a business context fixed internet services will more often provide a better service quality. However in some areas fixed services are not available and satellite connectivity can be used instead. We can offer 2-way satellite solutions throughout most of Europe with DIY install kits.
Our voIP services work globally, all you need is an internet connection and sufficient spare bandwidth to place the calls, if your internet connection is always running at max capacity then QoS can be deployed to give voice calls precedence over other traffic types, this is often done when businesses are using real time applications and servers like SAP, so QoS for voIP is not a major deployment issue, we can advise you on setup and equipment.

What is an ATA?
An ATA - analogue telephone adaptor allows you to use a normal phone with your voIP service, its a hardware device that connects to the internet and interfaces traditional phones, some modern DECT phones incorporate both a fixed line port and LAN port so you can combine voIP and landline services on the one device. Some cellphones with data packages will allow you to install an APP to make voice calls using voIP over the data service at rates much cheaper than the cellular calls could ever offer.

Softphones
Softphones are installed on your PC´s they provide a convenient method to use voIP services using nothing more than your internet connected PC (or Mac) and a headset with microphone. Some popular softphones include xlite, phonerlite, and often voIP firms will provide their own custom softphone.

SIP accounts
Gibber-Jabber, can offer you sip accounts, pre-paid with set calling rates, we can define the number of accounts, the routes chosen and the quality, all of these can impact on cost as well as quality, you may as example only need low call quality at lower costs to test lines and circuits, for speaking to customers normal quality suffices, or for the most important vip calls, premium quality is available, this actually equates more to the wholesale side of things that we handle in the background, low quality calling can choose least cost routing based on grey routes,  these sometimes dont connect each and every time but can offer good value for money, white routes normally offer good quality and balanced value, premium routes offer a guarantee on quality and have a premium for this  - one factor to consider that is beyond control, if you are calling from a premium route to someone elses number, they too may be using voIP, if their connection is not robust you may hear disruptions in the call.

voIP fault symptoms
There can be several, echo´s on the line usually indicate a latency problem, robotic sounds, fades and drops indicate a bottleneck somewhere, this could be local or remote, sometimes it is possible to eliminate this if you know you are running software with intense bandwidth usage (pause the program as example), crackles and clicks - not generally a symptom of voIP - sounds that are electrical in nature are usually coming from the headset or handset and its connecting cables - check these are in full working order before continuing to investigate.

Paying for services
Depending on complexity, and number of channels or extensions, Gibber-Jabber offers virtual PABX services, combined with least cost routing and voIP, you can choose whether to prepay for just calls, or whether you add any of our VAS - value added services to your packages.
