VoIP telephone technology keeps students in touch
Students at the University of Portsmouth and their families will have access to free phone calls via their computers, thanks to a new scheme being implemented in student halls of residence.
The University has installed new facilities which will provide students with cheap telephone calls to families and friends – and in some cases for free - using Voice over IP (VoIP) technology. Access to over 25 television channels is also part of the package in student halls.
Portsmouth
was the first university in the UK to sign up for the ‘triple-play’
system provided by Inuk Networks and its VoIP system, Freewire. The
project is part of an IT upgrade in student halls and utilises the free
broadband service already in place in all halls.
