SIP phone

Author: Anagha Ravi

SIP phones are phones enabled with SIP technology. SIP Phones may also be referred to as VoIP phone or soft phone.

How is Bandwidth involved with SIP phones?

Bandwidth provides SIP trunking services. The SIP protocol can be used to create, modify, and terminate two-party (unicast, like regular phone calls) or multi-party (multicast, like video conference calls) sessions. Sessions may consist of one or several media streams. This is where the term SIP Phone comes in. Bandwidth considers any phone that is enabled with SIP technology to be a SIP Phone.
