Supported SIP devices
Softphones for Windows, macOS and Linux (such as Linphone, Zoiper,
MicroSIP and Bria)
|
Mobile SIP apps for Android and iOS (such as Linphone, Zoiper and
Groundwire)
|
IP desk phones (such as Yealink, Grandstream, Snom and Fanvil)
|
SIP ATAs (Analogue Telephone Adapters) (such as Grandstream HT801/HT802
and Cisco SPA112)
|
IP PBXs (such as Asterisk, FreePBX, 3CX and FreeSWITCH)
|
SIP routers and VoIP gateways (such as MikroTik, DrayTek and Cisco)
|
Supported SIP protocols
SIP over UDP (default)
|
SIP over TLS for encrypted SIP signalling
|
Note: SIP over TLS encrypts the SIP signalling between your device and our
servers. Voice media is transmitted using standard RTP. SIP over TLS uses the
standard port 5061, which is automatically selected by most SIP clients when
TLS is enabled.
Supported audio codecs
G.711 U-law (PCMU) – High quality (64 kbps)
|
G.711 A-law (PCMA) – High quality (64 kbps)
|
G.722 – HD Voice (wideband audio)
|
G.729a – Low bandwidth (8 kbps)
|
G.726 – Medium bandwidth (32 kbps)
|
iLBC – Optimized for unreliable network connections
|
Note: During call setup, your SIP device and our servers automatically
negotiate the best available codec supported by both sides. In most cases, no
manual codec configuration is required.
Troubleshooting audio issues
If you experience one-way audio or other audio-related problems, try the
following:
Configure a STUN server (if supported by your SIP
device or application):
- Server: stun.freecall.com
- Port: 3478
|
Prefer the G.711 codec for the best compatibility and call quality.
