Connecting your phones
As Digital Voice runs over IP, all devices must be connected to the internet. You can connect phones directly via an Ethernet port, or connect to Wi-Fi if your signal is strong enough.
You can plug phones into your router or hub, a Local Area Network (LAN) switch, or any active cabling that is connected to your broadband or access product. For devices that connect to
Wi-Fi, we recommend checking the signal strength using your mobile phone to make sure full strength is available.
Have a think about which option you have and what to use for your business, so you can select the right devices for you. Any internal cabling would need to exist or being provided separately as it is not provided as part of Digital Voice for Business service.

Frequently asked questions
What is Digital Voice for Business?
Digital Voice for Business is a virtual phone system that’s hosted in the cloud. That means you get all the functionality of a traditional telephony system, but with the flexibility to do more.
How does calling work?
Calls are placed over the internet rather than using a traditional phone line. That means you don’t need to worry about the set-up and maintenance of a phone system, and your team can make and receive calls no matter where they are.
How to use Digital Voice for Business?
Make Digital Voice work for you by choosing the right package for each of your users based on their needs. Then decide how you want them to take their calls, do they need a handset on a desk or a cordless phone or would they prefer a softphone to use on their laptop/PC/Smartphone if so you should consider a headset. You don’t need to worry about call charges as all our packages include free calls to UK landline and mobiles. Getting set up is as easy as logging into the portal and downloading your softphone or plugging in your handsets.
