1. INTRODUCTION
The ADTRAN IP SoftPhone is an intuitive software application designed to enable Voice over Internet
Protocol (VoIP) communication from your laptop or desktop PC and works seamlessly with ADTRAN's IP
telephony products.
The IP SoftPhone is easy to use and offers a built-in audio tuning wizard that helps simplify setup. Any
audio devices, such as USB headsets or PC speakers, available to the host PC can be used with the
SoftPhone. The SPEAKER button offers single-button selection to switch between headset or speaker
phone devices.
The ADTRAN IP SoftPhone offers six call appearances with conferencing capability and other familiar
features like transfer, hold, do-not-disturb, and a message-waiting indicator. These features offer mobile
employees many of the same convenient phone capabilities they enjoy at the office.
The ADTRAN IP SoftPhone improves productivity by providing users quick access to their address book
and call logs to identify recently received calls, missed calls, and dialed calls. The ADTRAN IP SoftPhone
can be configured using the same extension as the user's office phone or as a completely separate
extension.
By using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), remote and mobile workers can use the ADTRAN IP
SoftPhone with any Internet connection and be confident that the voice and data traffic is secure and
private. VPNs provide encryption and ensure the security of the data and voice traffic between the
corporate network and a remote office Internet connection, wireless hot spot, or hotel broadband
connection.
