Voice Over Internet Protocol (Voip)

VoIP allows users to make phone calls over an internet connection rather than traditional phone lines. It works by converting voice signals into digital data packets that travel over the internet. There are several ways to make VoIP calls, including using a computer with a microphone and speakers, a VoIP adapter connected to a traditional phone, or a dedicated VoIP phone. Benefits include lower costs, portability, and additional features like call forwarding, while disadvantages include reliance on electric power and potential limitations of emergency calls and sound quality.
