Uplink Skype to Sip Adapter

Uplink is a software that connects VoIP calls using the SIP protocol to the proprietary Skype phone network. This is beneficial because SIP protocol has become the industry standard for VoIP, and many telephone companies, IP phone manufacturers, and virtual IP-based PBX systems use it to connect calls. However, the problem with SIP protocol is that sometimes the call rates for SkypeOut are discounted, and the proprietary IP phone 'Skype' has an almost cult following in the youth market.

Uplink solves this problem by allowing users to connect calls between the two systems. It has a variety of typical applications, including call centers who want to advertise a Skype number for customers, businesses running a PBX like the Axon PC or Asterisk Linux Based Phone System who want to advertise a Skype number, and users who want to use SkypeOut on their dial plan to make those calls to towns where Skype rates are cheaper. Additionally, users can use Sip Based Voicemail Systems or Sip Based IVR Systems on Skype calls.

This software comes with many features. It can connect both incoming and outgoing calls to the Skype network, make SkypeOut calls from a SIP device or SIP PBx, receive SkypeIn calls, direct them to the user's SIP extension, and fully comply with the RFC3261 for SIP signaling. It is also easy to use and operate.
