telephone calls over your Internet connection.
The SpeedTouch™ VoIP
solution
With your SpeedTouch™ you can make Internet and regular telephone calls using
traditional analogue phones, connected to your SpeedTouch™.
Multi-line service The voice service on your SpeedTouch™ provides additional lines without the need
for additional copper pairs. The additional lines allow you to make and receive
several internal and external Internet calls simultaneously.
Fax You can also connect a fax machine to your SpeedTouch™ in order to send and
receive faxes over your Internet connection or over the traditional phone line.
The following MGCP configuration parameters are provided by your ISP:
IP address and port number (usually 2727) of the provider’s call agent

and deletes connections in order to establish and control media sessions with other
multimedia endpoints.
