| Voice Over Internet: An Overview
Voice over IP is the latest movement in telecommunications. Not just the latest trend, VoIP is
here to stay, and it's revolutionizing the Public Switched Telephone Network. But does it work?
And more importantly, why should you switch?
It does work. Voice over Internet is a viable alternative to traditional phone service
in terms of voice quality and functionality. In fact, Voice over Internet is a strong
contender for primary line replacement because it offers more flexibility and control for
the customer, as well as ways to lower your costs.
It works this way: Aeneas provides the customer with an IP phone or an adaptor for their analog phone, which
connects directly to an Ethernet port. Your voice is carried over the Internet as a packet of information.
The information is delivered to Aeneas’s local switch, where a gateway converts the packet voice so
it can be heard. The person you’re calling doesn’t have to have an adaptor or an Internet
connection, just a phone. You’ll be able to talk just as you used to talk on your
traditional telephone.

But why should you switch to Voice over Internet? It’s a good question. After all, your traditional phone
service has always worked for you before. But if you can get the same voice quality, with more features and
flexibility, AND SAVE MONEY, the question becomes - why SHOULDN’T you switch?
Take a look at a few of the benefits and uses of Voice over Internet.
FLEXIBILITY
Voice over IP can be carried over any type of broadband connection: DSL, fiber, Coax
or wireless. Voice over Internet service can be offered wherever broadband Internet is available.
Aeneas offers you the option of combining your broadband and phone service for one low
price. But VoIP can be provided over any provider’s broadband network.
Voice over Internet also adds flexibility to your office telephone network. Your
SIP phone based network allows DID numbers to move with a user, making your network
easy to adapt.
Flexibility is also the key when it comes to features. Not only do you get a
wide-range of features, you also have control and the ability to customize.
FEATURES
Features include: caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, three-way calling,
voice mail, reminder calls, priority call, call rejection, call barring, withhold number,
call trace, and more. Find out more about Aeneas VoIP call features.
Features can be bundled, or customers can add the features they
want individually to their plans.
Features can be controlled by the customer. You can activate or modify service attributes
in real-time through an easy to use website. You have control over your account and your features, so
you no longer have to depend on your telephone provider to make changes to your account.

Features are also customizable. You don't have to accept a one size fits all plan.
Aeneas is able to fit you with a calling plan that meets your individual needs by writing
programming that is customer-specific.
Another advantage of Voice over Internet is that it’s still evolving rapidly.
Innovation in service and features is ongoing. More capabilities and added
features are being developed constantly, and there is rapid movement toward greater
integration of Internet and telephone services and products. This means your service
will only get better.
LOWER COSTS FOR BUSINESSES
- CAPITAL SAVINGS
- Eliminate PBX Costs
- Lower Wiring Costs
- ONGOING SAVINGS
- Lower Interconnect Fees
- No Inside Wiring
- One Line For Internet and Telephone
Voice over IP can be effectively used for businesses. By using the IP protocol for
intra-system traffic, a business can tie multiple locations together using an Ethernet
connection. The advantages are simple installation, operation and maintenance. You can
eliminate PBX costs. And lower your wiring, maintenance, and interconnect fees.
Voice over Internet also
makes conference calling possible. Aeneas can connect up to 40 participants to a single
conference call, with each person dialing in from their own phone using pin codes to ensure
the security of your conference.
LOWER LONG DISTANCE
Aeneas is also able to offer local West Tennessee service anywhere in the world. Your
IP phone is assigned a local West TN Number. You can use it anywhere in the
world, as long as an Internet connection is available. You can make LOCAL calls
back to your area code from your Internet phone, regardless of where you are geographically. A
student could take an IP phone to college and keep in contact with friends and family back
home, without paying long distance. And the same can be done from IP phone to IP phone. If,
for example, a business had branch offices in several cities, they could have an IP phone
in each office configured with the same local West TN area code. Those phones could be used
as contact points between offices, and all the calls between them would be LOCAL.
