When it comes to SIP and SIP phones though, there has to be a separation from the ever-famous VoIP. VoIP, or voice over Internet protocol, is not SIP, or session initiation protocol. In fact, they're both vastly different. A recent blog post from David Byrd discusses a particular issue over one survey from the SIP School.

With VoIP-Voice over Internet Protocol-steadily gaining ground with businesses and individuals alike across the globe, it's not surprising that more enterprises are looking to simplify the process of installing VoIP in a business. To that end, Unicoi Systems today announced their new 516-POE device, a device that includes all the necessary software to create a VoIP endpoint that's even compliant with SIP, giving it a note of extra flexibility.

What would businesses ideally want from their telephone systems - any guesses? An affordable, easy-to-manage converged communications solution that provides unprecedented freedom, control, and value wouldn't be far off the mark.

In light of IPC Systems' interest in expanding its Unigy platform across the enterprise, the electronic communications company has joined hands with Acme Packet in attempt to make that vision possible.

With today officially being the first day of summer, some companies are committed to demonstrating how they are already in full bloom, specifically IP voice/video telephony and video surveillance solutions provider Grandstream Networks. Today, the company unveiled its new DP715/710 DECT Cordless IP Phone, catered to the residential small office/home office (SOHO) and SMB/SME user in need of a digital wireless mobile VoIP telephone with high quality audio.

Genesys Telecommunications Laboratories, Inc., a technology leadership organization that offers products and services that meet both existing and future business needs, has named Echopass Corporation as North American Hosted Partner of the Year for 2011. Echopass is a member of the Genesys Partner Program that receives the support and resources it needs to increase profitability.

IP Phone Warehouse is releasing a new line of VoIP PBX communication servers from Barracuda CudaTel to expand phone services to companies of all sizes. The plan is to give subscribers access to a variety of features, including user support, easy setup and installation, and provisioning.
