   What you need you know.

What is VoIP?

Voice over Internet Protocol is a modernized phone connection method that employs computer networks to transport voice. A VoIP Trunk line is a digital phone line that utilizes the internet to send voice to the public phone network.

Scalability

Cost. Cloud VoIP charges per user are between $25-35. Because the cost grows at the same rate as devices, businesses with more than 20 people are better suited to a local PBX installation. Though they require more equipment up front, local PBX installations have a cost that scales more slowly than Cloud Systems. Over time, you will recoup the initial investment by the lower monthly fees associated with the service.

TechnicalVoIP Phone Service is highly dependent on consistent Internet service. We recommend a minimum Internet connection up-speed of 3Mbps, many of our clients have 10Mbps or more which allows both phone and general Internet traffic to operate normally.

Be aware that ISPs often advertise their DOWN speed first, UP speed is just as important for VoIP.

What is a PBX Server?

The heart of the system is the IP PBX server, which works somewhat like a proxy server. With a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)-based system, the VoIP clients register their SIP addresses with the server, which maintains a database of all the clients and their addresses.

When a user places a call, the PBX server recognizes whether it’s an internal or external call. Internal calls route to the SIP address of the phone or user receiving the call. External calls route to the VoIP gateway.

Hardware Requirements

Phones are one of the most important piece of hardware within the VoIP system. There are many to choose from; please see the page below that includes the options we regularly offer. If you don’t see something there that fits your needs, we always have more options for individualized situations. If an on-premise system best fits your needs, Lenovo PBX Servers are typically the size of a book and can be set on a shelf next to your router or mounted on a wall out of site. For larger installations where a more powerful system is needed we use Dell Optiplex XE2 Mid Towers which are larger than the Lenovo but still smaller than an average PC. Each phone needs a connection to the router. If needed, we will include a new network switch in our proposal so that you are sure to have enough open connections.

Parelli Natural HorsemanshipPagosa Springs, CO

It is amazing that we can connect with our over-seas offices via 3 digit extensions.

Pagosa Bible ChurchPagosa Springs, CO

The telephone system that Echo IT Solutions put in at Pagosa Bible Church gave us a much better way to interact with the community both during office hours and after. Office efficiency has also been improved with personal extensions and voicemail boxes. Thanks Echo IT Team!

Archuleta School District 50JPagosa Springs, CO

We will be saving an insane amount of money while creating a safer environment for the staff and children by allowing classroom teachers to communicate to the administrations office without leaving the room something that wasn't doable by CenturyLink. Message delays were causing huge problems that we hope Echo systems will negate. It will also be exciting to transfer from building to building.
