Online VOIP Requirements Check
Getting started with VOIP doesn’t take a lot. You might most likely already have most of what you need to switch over to VOIP.
1. An Active Internet Connection
Since VOIP works over the Internet, having an active connection is the most basic requirement.
Fortunately, most businesses today have an internet connection set up already. So if you are reading this from your office, consider this dealt with.
2. A Fast Connection
Having an Internet connection is not enough. You also need it to be fast enough to handle all your voice traffic. So what exactly is good internet speed?
To achieve a voice call of sufficient quality, a minimum internet speed of 90 – 100 Kbps per user is required.
Generally speaking, the higher your connection speed the more reliably consistent the quality of your VoIP phone calls will be.
1 Mbps = 1000 Kbps
