A softphone is a software program for making telephone calls over the Internet. Most laptop and desktop computers will support softphone programs. Often a softphone is made to be user-friendly and allow other programs to integrate its functionality. A softphone is usually used with a headset connected to the sound card of the PC, or with a USB phone.
Softphone client software is often used with VoIP providers and VoIP business telephone systems. Many Hosted PBX service providers and IP-enabled CPE hardware systems support softphones using SIP standards as well as proprietary signaling standards.
Connect our VoIP phones to your existing Internet enabled Local Area Network (LAN) and you're in business!
