This section provides planning information for implementing SIP trunks, a type of SIP connection that extends beyond the boundary of your local network. Deploying SIP trunking can be a big step toward simplifying your organization's telecommunications and preparing for up-to-date enhancements to real-time communications. One of the primary advantages of SIP trunking is that you can consolidate your organization's connections to the public switched telephone network PSTN at a central site, as opposed to its predecessor, time division multiplexing TDM trunking, which typically requires a separate trunk from each branch site.
In TDM trunking, service providers charge for calls by the minute. The cost of SIP trunking may be based on bandwidth usage, which you can buy in smaller, more economical increments. The actual cost depends on the service model of the ITSP you choose.
Because SIP trunks connect directly to your service provider, you can eliminate your PSTN gateways and their management cost and complexity.
Using a SIP trunk can lead to substantial cost savings through reduced maintenance and administration. Voice features are often the primary motivation for deploying SIP trunking, but voice support is just the first step. For example:. Enhanced presence detection for devices that are not running Skype for Business Server can provide better integration with mobile phones, enabling you to see when a user is on a mobile phone call.
E emergency calling enables the authorities who answer calls to determine the caller's location from his or her telephone number. The term trunk is derived from circuit-switched technology. It refers to a dedicated physical line that connects telephone switching equipment. Unlike circuit-switched trunks, SIP trunks are virtual connections that can be established over any of the supported SIP trunking connection types. Direct SIP connections, on the other hand, are SIP connections that do not cross the local network boundary that is, they connect to a public switched telephone network PSTN gateway or private branch exchange PBX within your internal network.
To implement SIP trunking, you must route the connection through a Mediation Server, which acts as a proxy for communications sessions between Skype for Business Server clients and the service provider and transcodes media, when necessary.
Each Mediation Server has an internal network interface and an external network interface. The internal interface connects to the Front End Servers. The centralized deployment model is simple, cost-effective, and is generally the recommended approach for implementing SIP trunks with Skype for Business Server.
VoIP traffic is then routed from the branch site directly to a service provider without going through the central site. The branch site requires survivable phone connectivity for example, if the WAN goes down. This requirement should be analyzed for each branch site; some of your branches may require redundancy and failover, whereas others may not. Resiliency is required between two central sites.

A first-party call is initiated by the client and a third-party call is initiated by another computer. Skip to main content.
