you can though the phone network port might be 100MB. the feed to the phone might be 100MB also.<br />
if properly configured, the switch will assign/group ip phones into VLAN7 while the PC will be on Vlan3 IP Assignment is done by the Cisco Router.<br />

The connection/phone qos will prioritize traffic for voice versus computer data.<br />

our phones use PoE ? Switch?

Hello EE,<br />
We have a switch with phones connect to it on 10.98.x.x vlan 7 and a switch of PCs on 10.200.x.x on vlan 3. &nbsp;Is it possible to save room on switch ports to connect the PC into the phone or is there an issues with the IP/VLAN differences? &nbsp;I am not sure on connectivity through the phone so am not sure the limitations.

Hello EE,
We have a switch with phones connect to it on 10.98.x.x vlan 7 and a switch of PCs on 10.200.x.x on vlan 3.  Is it possible to save room on switch ports to connect the PC into the phone or is there an issues with the IP/VLAN differences?  I am not sure on connectivity through the phone so am not sure the limitations.

Computer with 10.200.x.x on vlan3 connected through VOIP phone on 10.98.x.x on vlan 7 would this work?

IP telephony (Internet Protocol telephony) is a general term for the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Using the Internet, calls travel as packets of data on shared lines, avoiding the tolls of the PSTN. The challenge in IP telephony is to deliver the voice, fax, or video packets in a dependable flow to the user.

IP Telephony

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a methodology and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms commonly associated with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, broadband telephony, and broadband phone service. The term specifically refers to the provisioning of communications services (voice, fax, SMS, voice-messaging) over the public Internet, rather than via the public switched telephone network (PSTN).  Examples of the VoIP protocols are H.323, Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), H.248 (also known as Media Gateway Control (Megaco)), Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP), Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP), Session Description Protocol (SDP), and Inter-Asterisk eXchange (IAX).

Voice Over IP

Telecommunication occurs when the exchange of information between two or more entities (communication) includes the use of technology. Communication technology uses channels to transmit information (as electrical signals), either over a physical medium (such as signal cables), or in the form of electromagnetic waves. The word is often used in its plural form, telecommunications, because it involves many different technologies.
