IP-Phone
What is an IP-Phone?
Instead calling via the public telephone network using a conventional telephone, IP-Phone routes calls via the IP network. VoIP (Voice over IP) technology is what makes this new type of telephone service possible. Starting in April 2001, Rakuten Communications first utilized this technology to provide an Intermediary IP-Phone Service attracting over 2.5 million users in just three years. Additionally, a new IP-Phone service called the IP-Phone Service was made available to customers starting in April 2003, maintaining quality and proven reliability.
