Packet8 broadband phone service routes your calls over the Internet.
By taking advantage of a technology called broadband phone service or VoIP (voice over internet protocol), high-speed Internet connections and 8x8's expertise in designing videophones, Packet8 is the complete broadband telephone voice and video communication service. Packet8 sends all calls to and from you through the broadband phone adapter or the broadband videophone which then route the calls over the Internet, instead of using the traditional public telephone network.

Incoming calls ring your broadband phone the same as any traditional phone.
