VoIP is really Voice over Internet Protocol Technology.

• Voice is Liberated. (Great navigation for any application!)

– It’s either an enabling technology– Or the killer application itself.

• Thanks to Internet Protocol. – Customers’ devices do not have to be

managed by individual service providers.

– Access can be assumed and transport can be considered redundant and scalable.

• When we say VoIP are we doing a disservice.

– IP hides the transport copper, fiber or wireless.

– Distributed Network provides the 5 “9s”.

Infrastructure: WiFiFiber, POTS, etc.

IP

Applications: E-mail, Voice, Video etc.

Internet Protocol

The Importance of SIP• Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is

based on e-mail and web protocols combined to provide an application layer control (signaling) protocol for creating, modifying and terminating sessions with one or more participants.

• SIP can invite both persons and "robots," such as a media storage service, to participate in a call. The result is services can be based on servers on the Internet in a web like manner rather than hardwired to a specific call.

• Ask yourself what will communications be like if it works like the web or e-mail. What is the role of carrier then?

The Killer App is…Voice

• Using Presence, Text, Video, with other Internet enabled tools we are not going to do better than voice speed when actually in direct communication.

• Almost all of the rest of the technology is about how to connect when not in direct communication.

• And surprisingly voice is still a better I/O method for some of these communications.

• Although a navigational display adds value, too.
