Broadvox is an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP) that offers Voice over IP (VoIP) and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Trunking services to businesses. Broadvox uses SIP to allow network elements to interoperate with business voice equipment over an IP communications network. The voice channel between them is the SIP Trunk. Broadvox has a privately engineered network that is used for the VoIP services it provides to businesses. Other ITSPs (carriers) also use the Broadvox network. The advantages of using SIP and SIP Trunking for communication include: SIP enables developers to create unique applications that work with standard IP networks; applications may be run wherever IP network connectivity exists integrating PCs, mobile devices, SIP phones and other endpoints of communication; SIP uses the 'discover' philosophy foor endpoints rather than the prescribed capabilities followed by TDM networks and SIP endpoints declare their capabilities each time a session connection is negotiated, allowing the richest possible communication. Broadvox does not provide the hardware devices, so customers may select from a wide range of telephones and IP-enabled devices, or they may use legacy CPE (customer premise equipment) with gateway devices to deploy and use SIP Trunking for IP Communications. Broadvox is privately owned and was founded in 2001. Broadvox headquarters are in Dallas, Texas and the company also has offices in Cleveland, Ohio.
