What does VOB mean in ELECTRONICS

Voice Over Broadband (VOB) is a technology that allows people to use their existing high-speed Internet connection to make phone calls to any traditional landline or mobile phones. It provides customers with an alternative for making and receiving phone calls with crystal clear audio quality.

VOB works by providing customers with a software application that makes use of their computer’s microphone and speakers to establish direct peer-to-peer VoIP connections over their high speed internet. It also uses encoding algorithms like GSM, G729 and Speex that compress digital signals and send them over the Internet, allowing users to make long distance calls cheaper than traditional landlines or calling cards.

There are different plans available in the market when it comes to VOB services, depending on your usage needs. Generally speaking, they are usually quite cost effective compared to traditional landline plans because they don't involve long distance charges and have fewer overhead costs associated with them.

To use VOB services you will need a high speed internet connection, either through DSL, cable modem, or fiber access line; a powerful computer with a microphone; speakers; and most importantly, the appropriate software application installed on your computer.
