The Internet continues to expand and for VoIP the evolution is to Peer to Peer technology.

Come hear where the Internet is going and what the impact is for the service model of the future.

P2P SIP self organizing is nothing less than automation applied to VoIP, presence, IM and multimedia. It also shifts the cost of computing to the endpoints, where there is an abundance of unused CPU, storage, bandwidth, electricity and real estate. In many cases the users perform themselves the small residual maintenance such as software updates and configuring audio/video peripherals and various applications of their choice.

P2P SIP will benefit end users, service providers and enterprise networks alike. It will enable the full innovation potential of application developers.

P2P SIP will do to VoIP what VoIP has done to the PSTN.
