Chapter 1 - Introduction
The VOIP ATA VoIP Analog Telephone Adaptor (VOIP ATA) products are standards-based
communication devices that deliver true, next-generation voice-over-IP (VoIP) terminations to
residences worldwide. The VOIP ATA is in a small form factor that interface legacy analog
telephones, fax machines, analog conference telephones and other analog devices to IP based
telephony networks thereby allowing users and ISPs to protect prior investments in analog phones,
fax machines, and speakerphones, and migrate to IP at their own pace. These products address the
needs of small-office environments, and the emerging VoIP voice services whereby ISPs value add
their ADSL or Cable Modem offering with VoIP services by turning their analog devices into IP
devices.
The VOIP ATA is installed at the subscriber's premises and supports 1 voice (FXS) port. The VOIP
ATA supports 1 10/100BaseT AutoMDIX Ethernet ports. This adaptor can make use of existing
broadband pipes such as digital subscriber line (DSL), fixed wireless and cable modem deployments
By turning any analog telephone into an IP telephone, the VOIP ATAs addresses the needs of the
emerging market of "second-line" residential voice-over-IP (VoIP) services. Broadband service
providers can now deploy voice services quickly to grow revenues and facilitate the development of
new services.
