SIP Peering: If you have an IP PBX directly connected to the Internet you configure your account as a SIP peer (Advanced users).  Please see SIP Trunking article for more detail.

TCP SIP: Users can now choose between UDP or TCP SIP. TCP SIP offers reliable communication of SIP traffic and support for longer NAT (Network Address Translation) timeouts and will also enable support of ‘TCP only’ platforms such as Microsoft Lync/OCS to connect to Cloud PBX and take advantage of our great VoIP packages.

TLS Support: provides a secure encrypted transmission of SIP for deployments that require increased security. You should connect to tls.2talk.co.nz as your proxy/host using TCP port 5061.

G.722 Wideband 16KHZ: which provides high quality superior audio on calls. G.722 is supported by a number of devices. We will prefer this codec on on-net calls and anywhere else it's supported upstream if enabled on your device.

Network Redundancy: Using our own Internet address space enables us to multi-home all services allowing automatic failover from one hosting provider to another in the event of an upstream outage or network issue. We’ve also increased automation for failover in the unlikely event of system issues or hardware failures, allowing us to switch to backup/standby systems in seconds.
