VoIP QoS enables crystal clear voice quality on every call
QoS (Quality of Servic) is a valuable feature that is built into newer network routers
and switches designed to boost IP performance. When used with VoIP, QoS features allow for
voice traffic to flow through the network untouched, without any interference.
Our analogy:
Imagine your phone conversation is the President's motorcade traveling from point A to
point B. QoS is the police security that pulls ahead to each intersection and stops
traffic in either direction so that the motorcade can continue driving without ever
stopping.
QoS acts as a "network cop" which polices traffic and when configured properly will
always prevent your voice conversations from having any interruption.
Network routers that perform QoS
The router is the most important piece on your network that must perform QoS. The
internet router acts as the permanent bridge between your local network (your desktop
PCs or IP phones) and the internet.

Network Switches that perform QoS
The switch is a secondary piece of the network that can also perform QoS. A switch is a
device that simply gives you more ports to plug in your devices (PCs and IP phones).
Think of a network switch as a surge protector strip that allows one electrical wall outlet
to be shared across the entire surge protector allowing you to plug in
all your electronics. In the network world, the network switch allows for your
internet router's connection to be shared across all device sthat are plugged into the
switch.
