What is a VoIP gateway?
Media gateways, also commonly referred to as VoIP gateways are devices which bridge conventional telephone networks and equipment to VoIP telephone networks. A typical media gateway has at least one conventional telephone port and at least one ethernet port. In short, the gateway is a network device that converts voice and fax calls into digital packets — and vice versa — in real time, between the traditional PSTN and an IP Network.
Benefits of VoIP gateways in summary
The main advantage of VoIP gateway is that it can provide connection with your existing telephone and fax machines through the traditional telephone networks, PBXs, and key systems. This makes the process of making calls over the IP network familiar to VoIP customers.
VoIP gateways can also help direct outbound calls to a specific destination, or can end the call from another gateway and send the call to the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).
