Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) has quietly become the mainstay of fixed line communications. For mobile, the attractions of VOIP are perhaps harder to see. VPN overheads, packet loss and latency all combine to make VOIP over mobile difficult. In addition, incorrect profiles often mean that SIMs often drop down the priority context of Networks resulting in an even worse performance.

Most importantly, costs; the fact that mobile is still a metered service unlike fixed line means that companies have been reluctant to use VOIP over mobile as the data costs can be high in classic price-by-the-MB tariffs.

When it comes to running Fall Detectors, Lone Worker devices and Social Alarms there is a great incentive to adopt Roaming SIMs for a more robust connection. But the voice path on Roaming SIMs can be difficult to manage with two or three intermediary carriers involved as well as the obvious Provider at either end of the call. All of these factors mean delivering quality VOIP over Mobile is not easy.

Mobius only builds low packet loss, low latency solutions. Our Private Network structure means that you can have full PCI DSS accredited security without the overhead of an end-to-end VPN. And using established and traceable hand off points Mobius has been delivering data reliably around the world for 14 years.

As well as a technically better network Mobius now has a unique commercial offering. Data Reservoirs that are multi-network and can be drawn on for up to 12 months ending the gamble of a spike of activity in any one month on any one network.

A high reliability IoT network with a billing platform that can guarantee no overage means that VOIP has become the best option for voice applications on mobile.
