Overview
Congratulations on purchasing the Max 410/420/430!
The Max 410/420/430 is a Voice over Internet Protocol
(VoIP) device that allows you to make multiple outgoing
calls over the Internet using a single Ethernet Local Area
Network (LAN) connection. The Max 410/420/430 works
like a gateway to convert the analog signal from your
telephones to Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). It then
uses the LAN’s broadband connection to send calls over
the Internet via ’s service platform. Since Net2Phone calls
bypass most of the Public Switched Telephone Network
(PSTN), the result is significant savings on long-distance
communications services.
