Short for Voice over Internet
Protocol, a category of hardware and software that
enables people to use the Internet as the transmission
medium for telephone calls by sending voice data in
packets using IP rather than by traditional circuit
transmissions of the PSTN.
One advantage of VoIP is that
the telephone calls over the Internet do not incur
a surcharge beyond what the user is paying for Internet
access, much in the same way that the user doesn't
pay for sending individual e-mails over the Internet.
