3 WHAT IS VOIP? VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol, which simply means that the audio you hear on a phone call is transmitted over the Internet, as opposed to traditional analog phone networks. WHAT ARE THE INTERNET SPEED REQUIREMENTS? Most Internet connections today are more than sufficient to handle VoIP calls. A two-way VoIP call uses approximately 80 kb/s, and standard broadband connection typically starts at 3 mbit (3,000 kb/s) and up. HOW IS THE SOUND QUALITY ON VOIP? VoIP quality is actually better than landlines. Telzio uses high quality codecs, which means that audio files are transmitted without being compressed to the point of diminishing sound quality. Not all VoIP providers adhere to these same standards, and therefore may not deliver comparable quality. 3
