“There are many ways to arrive at the promises of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol),” said Dr. Brenner. “Whether it be an on-premises IP PBX (Internet Protocol private branch exchange) with traditional or SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) trunking or a Hosted Voice Solution or some combination thereof. Within each of those, there are many options from brand-name IP PBXs to open-source appliances on the CPE (Customer Premises-based Equipment) side to BYOB (Bring Your Own Bandwidth) and managed broadband offers on the Hosted side. At the Channel Partners Conference, I will be discussing the different options and how they compare in terms of cost, quality and complexity.”
