Book excerpt: SIP Trunking & Carrier Connections This module is all about connecting to carriers to communicate VoIP phone calls, both carrier-to-carrier connections and business-to-carrier SIP trunking. You'll learn how competitive carriers terminate VoIP phone calls on Local Exchange Carriers using the switched access tariff and tandem access trunks. We'll understand why this will be a native VoIP connection in the future, and the role of Session Border Controllers. Then we'll understand how a business system can connect its locations and to the PSTN using SIP Trunking services, and the advantage over the legacy ISDN PRI PBX trunks.
