VoIP is growing even more quickly than expected, according to some research analysts. 23 percent of small- to mid-sized enterprises are already using VoIP technology and an expected growth of up to 50 percent in the coming year. With the current speed of technology changeover, these same analysts expect the majority of small to medium-sized enterprises to have switched at least part of their networks to VoIP within the next five years. That could spell disaster for traditional telephony equipment vendors, and whether they can keep up with the market is anyone's guess.
And yet, even as more companies have not even started along this path, a new buzzword comes in, reinforcing the idea that VoIP and wireless Internet is a match made in heaven. That consensus is growing strong so. Realistically enough, it is simply just a better term to differentiate VoIP-based wireless telephony from the traditional kind, Wireless VoIP.
But what sets W-VOIP apart from the conventional communication system of hand-held radios? It is both an effective means of relaying information, and both encounter almost the same kind of problems, such as interference and accessibility.
Obviously, a W-VOIP carries with it the advantages of the telephone system, which can reach across corporate structures and link directly with the top tier of the organization. Radio communications seldom reach that high in the chain of command.
Secondly, being internet-based, the range and coverage can reach beyond the present yard or facility, much further than what hand-held radios get hold of.
