Hi Guys. Sorry If you guys find this very basic. I have tried google it and read lots of forum but still don't undrestand. This what my question is.

I have A to Z termination with one company. any I pay per min for local or international call. someone told me get sip trunk you will save mony. why do I need sip trunk if I already have termination. If I get sip trunk how would I save money. can someone explain to me.

If you have SIP termination

If you have SIP termination service then you have a trunk to connect to that service.

It's all the same think

How does it save money? Trunk is short for trunking the process of combing many calls into a single path. This efficient mode of transport lowers cost of service delivery.

Sometimes companies

Sometimes companies advertising Trunks are offering 2 way service - as in you can get a DID and receive calls.

SIP termination usually means that they will only Terminate your calls -> Allow you to make outbound calls through them.

But yes, they both essentially utilize a SIP trunk to connect you to their service.

SIP trunk

Hi chuby,
This is what I am doing too. I have termination account to make out bond call and I use DID for incoming call. I want to know is there any way for me to save money. because some of my customer use lots of min for local calls. There are some companies they offer $9.99 per month with unlimited Canada and US calling. I want to know how can that be done.

unlimited

Really there is no such thing as unlimited calling they all have limits and most of the unlimited you will find are home accounts not intended to be used with asterisk.

you have to pay to play
