While the technology behind digital phone is advanced, it works the same way you would expect a traditional phone to work. You dial and answer your phone exactly the same way and you can use the same phones that you use with traditional phone service -- digital phone does the rest.

It converts voice signals from your telephone into a digital signal called packets that travel over the Internet or a private network and are converted back into a voice signal at the other end.

The person you are calling can be either a traditional or digital phone customer, and will hear your voice in your natural way -- just like a regular phone.

This state-of-the-art, next generation technology makes your calls "digital" meaning you get crystal clear voice quality.
