SmartFone Makes it Easy
In order transport phone calls over the
internet your voice needs to be converted into Digital IP (Internet Protocol)
format. Along with your voice there's a number of digital control signals
that provide additional features.

Choose from a number of different technologies
that translate your voice to a digital signal suitable for transmission.
All SmartFone supplied hardware and software follows "Open Standards"
so they will have the greatest compatibility with other technology.
Softphone - A Softphone is short for Software Telephone. It is a program that
runs on your computer to allow you to make or receive telephone calls
(and sometime video calls). Some Softphones just initiate calls while
others can receive calls as well. Additional features include video
calling, call recording (including video) and presence (who's available).
USB Handset or Headset - Connects to your computer's USB port. Microphone
and Headphones (or analog headset) connects to your microphone and
headphone sockets. Notebook users can also use the inbuilt microphone
and loudspeaker. A Softphone must be running on your computer
for you to make and/ or receive calls.
ATA (Analog
Telephone Adapter) - Converts your current phone output to a signal
compatible with your LAN (Local Area Network) Some have a legacy connection
to the PSTN allowing you to continue to make and receive "regular"
calls and others have additional LAN ports (for connecting your computer
or other devices)
Digital SIP Telephone - Connects directly to your LAN. Effectively an analog telephone and
ATA in one device. Many have additional LAN ports (for connecting your
computer or other devices) and some also have a legacy connection to
the PSTN.
SmartFone will also work without any software
or hardware. You can use your account just like a phone card by dialling
one of our global Tollfree access numbers.
Please understand that you will be saving
heaps on your phone calls so the cost of any hardware or software investment
will be rapidly recovered.
