INTRODUCTION TO THE IP250D

1 Introduction to the Teledex IP250D VoIP Network Terminal

The Teledex IP250D VoIP network terminal is very similar to a modern business desk telephone. Instead of using telephone lines, it connects to the office network in the same manner as computers and printers do. The acronym VoIP means Voice over Internet Protocol. The voice and control signals to and from the IP250D are entirely digital data that is transmitted over the office data network, rather than phone lines.
