SIP trunking creates a virtual connection between your business phone system (PBX) and the public telephone network using your internet connection. It replaces traditional phone lines with digital channels that can handle multiple simultaneous calls, all while reducing costs and increasing flexibility. Think of it as the bridge that connects your modern IP phone system to both traditional phone numbers and the wider world of internet-based communications. ![Modern Business Needs](https://www.cicigroup.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Modern-SIp.png?width=667&height=667&name=Modern-SIp.png) ### Powerful Features for Modern Business Our SIP trunking service delivers enterprise-grade capabilities designed to give your business complete control over its communications.

Route calls between sites for free, present a consistent front to customers, and manage everything from a central location. - High-Volume Call Businesses Contact centres, sales teams, and customer support departments benefit from the scalability and cost-effectiveness of SIP. Handle hundreds of concurrent calls with ease while keeping costs predictable. - Growing Companies Businesses experiencing rapid growth need communications that can keep pace. Add new team members, open new locations, or expand into new markets without the constraints of traditional phone lines. - Cost-Conscious Businesses Reduce telecommunications spending significantly while maintaining or improving service quality. The savings from switching to SIP often pay for the migration within the first year. ![SIP Trunking](https://www.cicigroup.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/SIP-1.png?width=667&height=667&name=SIP-1.png) ![Rapid](https://www.cicigroup.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Rapid.png?width=120&height=120&name=Rapid.png) **Rapid Deployment** Get connected fast with virtual setup requiring no physical installation.

SIP trunking requires a reliable broadband connection with sufficient bandwidth. Each concurrent call requires approximately 100kbps of bandwidth. For best results, we recommend business-grade broadband with at least 10Mbps download and 2Mbps upload speeds for small offices, scaling up based on your channel count. Quality of Service (QoS) configuration on your network helps prioritise voice traffic for optimal call quality. - Can I keep my existing phone numbers? Absolutely! We can port your existing numbers to our SIP trunk service, ensuring business continuity and avoiding the cost and disruption of changing your published contact information. The porting process typically takes 1-2 weeks and we manage the entire process for you. - What happens if my internet goes down? Business continuity is built into SIP trunking. You can configure automatic failover to redirect calls to mobile phones, alternative sites, or even traditional PSTN lines if needed. Many businesses maintain a backup connection or use 4G/5G failover to ensure calls always get through, even during internet outages. - Is call quality as good as traditional phone lines? When properly configured with adequate bandwidth and QoS, SIP trunk call quality equals or exceeds traditional lines. Many customers report even better clarity with HD voice codecs. The key is having a quality internet connection and properly configured network equipment. - How quickly can I get set up? For new numbers, setup can be completed within 24-48 hours. If you're porting existing numbers, allow 1-2 weeks for the porting process. Installation is straightforward—we provide you with configuration details and can assist your IT team or contractors with the technical setup. - What equipment do I need? You'll need an IP PBX (phone system) that supports SIP trunking and IP phones or SIP-compatible handsets. If you have an older PBX, you may need a SIP gateway or license upgrade. Many businesses take this opportunity to upgrade to a modern cloud-hosted phone system for maximum flexibility. - Can I use SIP trunks for international calls? Yes! SIP trunking offers competitive international calling rates, often significantly cheaper than traditional telephone services. You can also provision international numbers to present a local presence in other countries while routing calls to your UK office. ## Get started today!
