Bind the review to one order, registration and channel model
Record the legal customer, service order, issued credential owner, headline number, DDI aliases, channel quantity, Bundle Plus status, minute bundle, PBX or SBC, access circuit, support path and responsible operator. The service schedule defines a SIP trunk as one registration containing one or more channels and defines one channel as one concurrent call. The product page separately describes SIP Lite, SIP Unlimited and Bundle Plus.
Do not turn those catalogue and contract definitions into the selected account state. Preserve the dated order, activated service, actual binding, inbound and outbound channel treatment, calls-per-second policy, PBX capacity and provider enforcement as separate evidence.
Documented service facts
Reviewed 2026-10-17. Compare SIP trunk services →
SIP authentication
DocumentedThe service schedule says SIP credential details are issued to the technical contact. Preserve the credential owner, challenge and rotation without publishing secrets; the public documents do not establish every account’s exact digest, source-address or certificate policy.
SIP registration
DocumentedThe service schedule defines a SIP trunk as one registration with one or more channels and describes the standard single registered account for a headline number and aliased DDIs. Preserve the issued registrar, Contact, expiry and response; registration does not prove number routing or calls.
Headline number, DDIs and inbound delivery
DocumentedThe standard arrangement aliases DDIs to a headline number for delivery through one registered account; separately rerouted DDIs require a separate headline number. Preserve assignment, port completion, delivered identity and PBX match.
DNS routing, diversion and alerts
DocumentedThe product page discusses NAPTR and SRV routing, while the service schedule separately documents portal diversion and non-registration SMS alerts. Confirm the selected DNS names and account controls; none proves active-call survival.
Number and regional availability
DocumentedThe service schedule covers UK geographic, non-geographic and international-number workflows and porting, but actual inventory, address eligibility, portability and activation remain order specific.
Audio codecs, RTP and DTMF
Not verifiedThe reviewed public material does not publish an order-specific codec list, packetization, RTP range, DTMF method or media-source policy. Preserve both SDP bodies and observed media before changing codecs, NAT or firewall rules.
Fax and T.38 bypass
DocumentedThe product page describes T.38 bypass and the service schedule lists fax-to-email. These are different services and neither proves the selected fax path or result; qualify the order and preserve negotiation and a permitted document outcome.
Signaling, media and fraud controls
DocumentedThe product page describes SRTP, but the selected signaling transport, certificate policy, media keying, required encryption, downgrade behavior and source policy remain account specific. Capability is not negotiated-call proof.
Concurrent-call model
DocumentedThe service schedule defines a channel as one concurrent call; the product page separately describes SIP Lite, SIP Unlimited and Bundle Plus. Ordered channels, direction, CPS, burst, bandwidth and PBX capacity must remain separate.
Emergency calling
DocumentedThe SIP schedule warns that broadband or power failure can prevent 999 and 112 calls and requires current address details for each DDI. Eligibility, address propagation, caller identity, callback and approved testing remain selected-service controls.
Pricing and contract
DocumentedThe service schedule states a default minimum term unless the order says otherwise and describes bundle and diversion charging boundaries. Approved price, taxes, exact term, support and SLA remain the dated order.
Portal, support and evidence
DocumentedPublic material describes portal controls, reports, support tools, a SIP trace tool, network status and a registration checker. These do not prove one entitlement, incident, account or call; retain ownership, timestamps and correlation identifiers.
SMS and MMS
Not verifiedThe SIP schedule documents SMS notifications for non-registration, not general messaging on assigned DIDs. Qualify SMS or MMS as a separate product, sender, consent, routing, retention and commercial workflow.
Treat issued credentials and a successful REGISTER as one boundary
The service schedule says Ready to Use begins when SIP credential details are sent to the technical contact and describes the standard format as one registration carrying inbound calls for the headline number and aliased DDIs. Record the issued registrar or proxy, transport, port, username owner, challenge, Contact, expiry and final response without publishing secrets.
A 200 response and current Contact prove one registration transaction and binding observation. They do not establish number assignment, completed porting, inbound delivery, outbound authorization, available channels, negotiated media or a successful call.
Keep headline numbers, DDI aliases and completed ports distinct
Voip Unlimited documents a standard arrangement in which DDIs are aliased to a headline number and calls arrive through one registered account. It also says a DDI requiring different rerouting must be configured as a separate headline number. Record the provider-side assignment, delivered Request-URI and identity headers, PBX normalization, first loaded route and final destination for each accepted number.
A submitted port, prepared PBX route, portal entry and completed inbound delivery are different states. The service schedule directs customers to check inbound call logs after a non-geographic port. Preserve the port confirmation, first provider attempt and PBX receipt before changing a route.
Separate DNS routing, portal diversion and registration alerts
The product page discusses NAPTR and SRV for resilient SIP routing. The service schedule separately documents a portal call divert for customer-system or circuit failure and optional SMS alerts for non-registration. These are different controls: DNS target selection, provider-side call diversion and a rate-limited alert do not prove one another or active-call survival.
For DNS, record the exact service name, resolver, NAPTR or SRV answers, TTLs, priority, weight, target, port and selected address. For diversion or alerting, record the configured headline number, destination, trigger, timestamp and provider result. Avoid an uncoordinated failover test that creates duplicate ringing or emergency-call risk.
Verify IPv4 or IPv6, SRTP, RTP and fax from the selected call
The product page describes IPv6, SRTP and T.38 bypass as supported technology concepts. It does not establish the selected trunk transport, certificate policy, media-keying profile, codec list, DTMF method, RTP range or fax entitlement. Preserve both SDP bodies, chosen codec, packetization, media addresses, first packet in each direction, loss, jitter and decoded result.
Keep TLS signaling, SRTP media, ordinary RTP, T.38 negotiation, audio fallback and the vendor-described bypass path separate. A capability statement, accepted INVITE, packet counter or ordinary voice call is not proof of protected media, audible two-way audio or a successful fax.
Accept emergency, fraud, commercial and operational boundaries
The SIP service schedule says broadband or power failure can prevent 999 and 112 calling and requires current address details for each DDI because emergency services use them. Verify eligibility, registered address, update propagation, caller identity, callback behavior, outage method and only a provider-approved test procedure. Maintain an accessible independent calling method.
Record fraud controls, authorized caller identity, portal custody, support entitlement, status timestamp, incident ID, pricing, term, taxes and SLA scope from the selected order. Public support tools and provider-network claims are not proof of one account, customer access path, PBX or call. No availability, quality, compatibility, emergency or call result is claimed from this documentation review.
Use the DDI-specific workflow after registration succeeds
The Voip Unlimited inbound-DDI diagnostic separates accepted registration, headline and alias assignment, port completion, provider attempt, PBX identity, route selection and media.
