Who can I call?

The Quick answer is anyone! Of course, who you can call depends on the communications equipment used.

With the installation of a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) we can tie the VOIP to your existing phone line from Telus, allowing local calls and traditional long distance. When your office needs to contact a branch office in another city, we can set up your telephone system to dial out using VOIP. Your costs are minimal.

When will I be able to use this technology?

VOIP is available now and several business are already taking advantage of this technology.

What equipment do I need?

We will custom design a system that works for you. In most cases, a simple gateway attached to a PBX system and a high speed Internet connection are the only components required.
