IP Softphone 2050 overview
The IP Softphone 2050 is a business telephone application that you can
use to make and take calls over your computer. Using a headset or
handset connected to your PC, you control calls with the click of the
mouse pointer, from your PC keyboard, or from the USB Audio Adapter.
Designed to work with IP-based phone systems, the IP Softphone 2050
provides Voice over IP (VoIP) services using a telephony server and your

The server that supports your IP Softphone 2050 determines the features
you can access, such as Call Conference, Call Transfer, and
Call Forward.
