SIP TRUNKING SERVICES
As you’re on your journey to select a SIP trunk provider, you’ll want to understand the pricing. A SIP trunk functions as a bundle of phone lines using the Session Initiation Protocol known as SIP. Businesses that use SIP trunks can provide their office with a backbone of voice lines for everyone in a building. The cost of a SIP trunk varies, so we’ll help you maximize your investment and level up your phone system on a budget.
Differences Between Hosted PBX & SIP Trunking
All plans have set up costs associated with each that can be as low as $100 for the one-time setup and interop testing between our switches. Ask your Sales Engineer for specifics of your SIP connection for exact pricing for interconnection to our switch.
