ClearlyIP SIP trunking –
clear calls, clear choice.

SIP trunking, or Session Initiation Protocol trunking, is a communication service that enables businesses to make and receive voice, video, and other multimedia communication sessions over IP networks using the SIP protocol.

It replaces traditional telephone lines, such as ISDN or analog lines, with a virtual connection that leverages an internet connection to carry voice and data traffic.

An IP Phone is a device that uses internet protocols to transmit voice communication over a network, such as the internet or a local area network (LAN). Unlike traditional analog phones, which use circuit-switched networks, IP Phones convert voice signals into digital packets and send them over packet-switched networks.

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocol used to initiate, maintain, modify, and terminate real-time communication sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks. These sessions can include voice, video, and messaging applications. SIP is a critical component of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) technology.
