SIP trunks can be created over any suitable data connection including broadband, traditional leased lines or Ethernet to give full incoming and outgoing telephone line functionality but with some key advantages over digital or analogue lines;

Telephone numbers become divorced from a local area allowing them to move with you when you relocate or you can choose telephone numbers from other areas to allow you to project a “local” presence in other areas

By utilising a data connection that would otherwise be used only for Internet or inter-site data transfer you can reduce the overall rental charges associated with having separate individual connections for data and for voice by having a single, converged Voice and Data connection.

SIP trunks allow greater flexibility for diverse call routing to improve Business Continuity planning

Incoming calls can be diverted or routed on a per DID / per telephone number basis so that for example in an emergency each person’s calls can be diverted to their mobile phone rather than all calls being diverted to just one number as with traditional ISDN or analogue lines

Incoming calls can be rerouted automatically if the SIP trunks fail whereas digital requires a manual divert to be requested

Calls between any sites equipped with our SIP trunks are free of charge

Telephone calls over SIP trunks can be easily recorded
