Today, in the era of global computerization, free international telephone communication has become a reality. In the last decade, developers have taken a big step forward and offer users to evaluate all the possibilities of the Internet, organically connected with communication. One of the revolutionary developments was IP telephony, which is very popular all over the world.

Advantages of IP-telephony, or affordable international telephone communication

The main advantage of IP telephony is the reduction in bandwidth. This indicator was achieved by taking into account the statistical characteristics of speech traffic, namely, blocking the transmission of pauses, which occupy most of the time of occupying the transmission channel, as well as compression of the speech signal. Today, IP telephony traffic is strictly controlled by international standards that meet the ISO 9000 class, which includes quality control of the connection (the speed of connection plays the main role in defining this standard), as well as the quality of transmission and speech perception.

What is the main difference between IP telephony and traditional communication?

Conventional telephone communication implies the transmission of voice over a dedicated channel through a telephone exchange. In the case of IP-telephony, voice is transmitted over the Internet, while the compressed data packets go in different ways, after which they are decoded and grouped in a certain order. To make a regular telephone call, you need a developed network of telephone exchanges, the connection between which is carried out using cables, satellites and telephone lines. In addition, the use of a leased line for making a call is characterized by either excess productivity or downtime. All this entails additional costs, which accordingly affects the cost of international communication.

In the same case, if the call is made via IP-telephony, there is no need to create a new network, since the existing ones are used. But its main difference is that the voice signal is compressed, which allows a large number of packets to be transmitted simultaneously (even if calls are made by different users). This principle allows full use of the cable resource.

In order to use this service for making calls abroad, you do not need to buy special expensive equipment. The user can use a VoIP phone, which looks like a regular phone, or a special program for a PC for calls. Thanks to this, international communication becomes even more convenient and high-quality.

Long-distance and international telephone communication: economic issues

Long distance telephone services make up a significant portion of the operating budgets of companies with business interests in different cities. In the case of cross-border business, the cost of telephone calls at international tariffs can have a significant impact on the overall financial results. In a crisis, the optimization of communication costs becomes one of the priorities of the economic policy of any enterprise, and for companies with large call centers with a geographically diversified customer audience, it turns out to be a matter of survival.

International connections and long distance - communication, organized on the principle of IP-telephony, is intended, first of all, to drastically reduce operating costs and increase business efficiency. From the point of view of the quality of the conversation and the use of the telephone set, there are no differences between "classic" and IP-telephony, the difference is in the hardware stuffing of the "regular" handset and VOIP-phone and data transmission technologies.

Modern communication technologies are becoming an important tool for managing business performance.

There are several operators in Russia that provide communication in the country and outside its territory. The largest are Rostelecom and Interregional Transit Telecom. When you call a number outside the subscriber's settlement, you first need to select one of the telecom operators, for which, when connecting after the eight and a dial tone, the Rostelecom or Interregional Transit Telecom code is dialed for intercity.

How to choose the right operator?

Using a specific code is not only a technical dialing procedure when making a phone call, but also the choice of a company that will provide telecommunications services. To get the desired level of service and acceptable rates, before dialing the numbers corresponding to a particular operator, you need to inquire about the company, prices and technical capabilities. It is better to look at the official prices and conditions of long-distance communication of Rostelecom and Interregional Transit Telecom directly on the companies' websites. It's also worth asking for user reviews.

The presence of several companies on the market creates healthy competition, which is why the consumer wins. Long-distance communication between Rostelecom and Interregional Transit Telecom is licensed and meets all the necessary parameters. It is important to navigate correctly in the proposals and choose the best option. First of all, this is important for those individuals or legal entities who constantly use the services of long-distance and international communication. There are not only different price offers on the market, but also a number of other factors worth paying attention to.

The quality of communication directly depends on the technical capabilities and branching of the communication network. For example, dialing on the first try, good audibility without delays, echoes and additional noise. If the economy of calls is in the first place, it makes sense to use the services of both companies, choosing the best tariffs for this or that case. Technically, this is possible, although not as convenient as automatic connection through the default carrier.

Dialing rules for long distance calls

Regardless of the telco, there are two ways to dial:

  • Hot Choice - selection of a telecom operator directly upon connection;
  • Pre-select - connection through a pre-selected operator.

When dialing using the Hot Choice method, the two digits after the eight indicate the company through which the subscriber prefers to make the call. Rostelecom's long-distance communication code is “55”, and Interregional Transit Telecom's code is “53”. In addition to these operators, a number of smaller companies have licenses for similar activities, such as Arktel with the intercity code "21", Comstar - "23", Orange - "54", Sovintel (aka Beeline) - "51" and others.

Most often, subscribers are interested in how to make a long-distance call through Rostelecom (RTK) or Interregional Transit Telecom (MTT).

A long distance MTT call looks like this: 8 - 53 - area code - required number. An example of dialing a landline phone number in Moscow: 8 - 53 - 495 - 249 73 25, where 495 is the city code of Moscow, and 249 73 25 is a telephone number. An example of a mobile phone dialing: 8 - 910 - 249 73 25 to contact a number within one region or 8 - 53 - 910 - 249 73 25 for numbers in other regions.

Exit to long distance through Rostelecom: 8 - 55 - area code - the number of the called subscriber. An example of dialing to a Moscow landline phone: 8 - 55 - 495 - 249 73 25, where 495 is the Moscow code, 249 73 25 is the telephone number. An example of dialing a mobile phone: 8 - 910 - 249 73 25 to communicate with a mobile number within one region or 8 - 55 - 910 - 249 73 25 for a mobile number in another region.

You should pay attention to the difference in dialing the long-distance communication code of Rostelecom and Interregional Transit Telecom to mobile phones of your own and someone else's region.

The Pre-select connection is intended for those who prefer to receive services from a single operator. Usually, an agreement is concluded with the selected company, and all calls are made automatically, omitting the code for intercity Rostelecom, Interregional Transit Telecom or another company. In this case, the user receives a simplified dialing option, which for long distance calls through Rostelecom or another operator looks like this: 8 - area code - the required number.

If the communication company has not been selected and not previously agreed, then when dialing a short number, the services of Rostelecom will be provided by default.

Benefits of Rostelecom's long-distance communication services

Rostelecom is one of the largest operators in Russia on the long-distance and international calls market.

Company advantages:

  • competitive prices;
  • wide range of tariffs, packages and special offers;
  • fast connection;
  • high quality of services;
  • simplified dialing;
  • stable connection even with the most remote settlements;
  • free long-distance calls within the Rostelecom network;
  • choice of a convenient form of payment;
  • the ability to manage services through a personal account on the company's website.

The company has the most extensive and extensive telecommunications network covering all parts of Russia, even those in which other operators do not work. High technologies provide fast dialing to the desired subscriber. The connection from the first attempt indicates that the system is sending the call over the shortest and currently unloaded communication channel.

The operator offers special packages for home, office and corporate phones, developed for each category of users. It is recommended to make long-distance calls from a home or office phone by Rostelecom having previously selected one of the tariffs, taking into account the number of required calls.

Using the correct rate gives you the opportunity to:

  • lowering the subscription fee;
  • receiving additional services at special prices or as a bonus;
  • one-time configuration of multiple services.

If you need to disconnect Rostelecom's long distance communication, it is recommended to visit one of the company's offices, send an application by e-mail, or contact the technical support department for advice by phone. There is also the possibility of suspending the provision of the service for a specified period.

Telecommunication operators in Russia provide telephone communications in the country and abroad, but only a few leading companies have a high level and comfortable connection speed. If you want to use the services of Rostelecom, before making long distance calls, you must make sure that the dialed code corresponds to this particular operator. You can also use a simplified set. Which option do you prefer?

The purpose of this article is to show the most interesting offers on the communications market that allow making long-distance calls at the lowest rates.

Long-distance communication is a connection to landline or mobile numbers of the country, but not including the numbers of other countries (this is already an international connection) and not including the numbers of your region, in our case the Saratov region (this is an intra-zone connection).
Technically, there are three technologies for making long distance calls:

  • traditional long distance (long distance) communication
  • iP telephony and its type (sip telephony)
  • mobile (cellular) communication

Technical differences turn into economic differences, that is, the price of the tariff.

At present, the cost of a call through a fixed (wired) communication over a traditional long-distance communication is usually from 1.50 to 4.00 rubles per minute. If we talk about the weighted average price, then about 2.50 rubles per minute.

Long distance calls via sip telephony cost from 0.50 to 2.00 rubles per minute. The weighted average price is about 1.50 rubles per minute. Moreover, some sip operators charge per second. Since 2007 to 2015 a lot of companies making long distance calls have signed contracts with sip operators. Until recently, this was considered a reasonable and profitable solution.

However, since the end of 2015. the situation on the communications market has changed dramatically. Mobile operators began to offer tariffs with a monthly fee, containing packages of minutes, including for long-distance directions. In recalculation, the price of a minute of conversation is 30-80 kopecks! That is about 3 (!!!) times cheaper than sip-telephony and about 5 (!!!) times cheaper than traditional long-distance communication.

Below we will briefly describe each of the communication technologies, and the operators offering the most interesting and profitable long-distance tariffs. Naturally, the main emphasis will be placed on disclosing tariffs of cellular operators offering prices several times lower than operators of previous technologies.

  • Traditional long distance communication.

Legally - long distance communication service.
Dialing a long-distance number from a landline phone starts at 8. We dial 8, area code, subscriber number. After dialing the number, the call goes to the PBX of the local operator providing the phone number and line. The PBX redirects the call to the long-distance operator. According to the legislation, the subscriber has the right to independently choose his long-distance operator. To do this, you must conclude an agreement with a long-distance (long-distance) communication operator and write a statement to the local communication operator, indicating your phone numbers, which you need to switch to the selected long-distance operator. The local operator carries out the settings at his communication center and in the future all long distance calls through 8-ku will automatically be made through the selected long-distance operator.
You can read more about long-distance communication and the list of long-distance telecom operators, for example, in the corresponding Wikipedia article.

We see no reason to compare tariffs of long-distance operators. Each long-distance operator has several such tariff plans, they are ready to give discounts from them. But what's the point if even with discounts these tariffs will be about 5 times more expensive than long-distance tariffs via cellular communication.

  • IP telephony.

Legally - a data communication service for the transmission of voice information.
IP telephony, SIP, VoIP is the transmission of voice over the Internet.
Read more about IP (SIP) telephony in a separate article.
Why the tariff for sip-telephony turns out to be much lower than the traditional long-distance communication, read.
Due to the fact that mobile operators have tariffs for long distance communication on average 3 times cheaper, now customers choose sip telephony less often.

Nevertheless, sip telephony for long distance calls has some advantages:
1) Ability to substitute caller ID for outgoing calls to cell numbers.
2) Multichannel. SIP telephony will help out at peak times when there are not enough outgoing channels.
3) If there are very few long-distance calls (for example, only 10 calls per month), then it is easier and cheaper to make them via sip telephony than to pay a subscription fee to a cellular operator for a package of minutes, which will still not be reprimanded.

  • Long distance communication via cellular communication.

In 2016. cellular operators have consistently introduced tariff plans that assume a package of minutes for a certain monthly fee, including for long-distance directions (throughout Russia, to landline and mobile numbers of all operators (and to their own mobile networks it is generally free)). As a result, the price of a minute turns out to be about 30 to 80 kopecks, depending on the selected tariff plan and the completeness of its use. However, there are options in which you can even reach a price of 23-25 \u200b\u200bkopecks / minute.

We wrote about these tariffs in detail in separate articles for each operator:,. By conducting a detailed analysis of these tariffs, we found that among all the offers, Tele2 and Megafon have slightly more favorable tariffs, where the average price is about 50 kopecks per minute of conversation for all long-distance numbers in Russia. There are options for 23 kopecks / minute. In addition, Megafon tariffs include an additional bonus - free calls to Megafon Russia numbers. And these free calls are not deducted from the minutes package.

The attentive reader has already noticed that there is at least one pitfall in the "tasty" package tariffs of mobile operators. After the package of minutes has been used up, the price per minute becomes less interesting. In addition, only one person can call through one SIM card, but what if you need to call several employees from the office. If you buy SIM cards with such tariffs for all employees, then the total monthly fee for all SIM cards will eat up all the savings.
This is where our solution comes to the rescue: a telephony server with its function. The server can calculate the number of minutes spoken, and after using up the package of minutes, automatically disconnect outgoing calls through this SIM card and redirect calls through another or through sip telephony. Moreover, the server will leave the possibility of outgoing calls for a free direction (own network). In addition, it is possible to configure the uniform use of packages of minutes between several SIM cards, or in proportion to their number of minutes. Calls to Moscow and St. Petersburg in the server are directed through Sipnet and are made free of charge under the promotion. Moreover, when the restrictions set in Sipnet are reached (or 5 calls or 30 minutes every day), the telephony server will automatically redirect calls through another operator. All this is just a small feature of the telephony server.
