Wi-Fi telephony is the latest, most cost effective,
and clearest way of carrying voice data wirelessly. The great news is
that it can be integrated seamlessly into the same infrastructures as
currently used for computer and telephone data.The digital quality is
far above current cellular technologies.

This book will be among the first to discuss Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP), Quality of Service (QoS), and
interoperability in connection with Wi-Fi telephony. Security
challenges are also presented and solved along these malleable wireless
boundaries. In short, this book provides all the information necessary
for effective, reliable, crystal clear Wi-Fi telephony service and
implementation.

  * Using current telephone and computer infrastructure this technology can be implemented at low cost
* The importance of Quality of Service (QoS) and security of Wi-Fi telephony is considered
* Enhances the clarity of a call beyond a basic cellular phone using digital data transfer
