Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) offers a wide range of benefits to both enterprises and communications/network service providers. These include lower costs, unified management of voice and data infrastructure, and - perhaps most importantly - the ability to deploy a new generation of converged voice/data applications.

Although use of VoIP is growing rapidly, several factors have inhibited more rapid adoption across all market segments. These factors include concerns about maintaining consistent voice quality over IP networks, especially during periods where other types of traffic on the IP network suddenly 'spike' - potentially putting the squeeze on voice packets and momentarily threatening voice quality.
