How does a VOIP (Voice over internet protocol) plug into the actually computer?

It would be used for telecommunications business purposes, not like the internet phone service (example-vonage or sykpe).

The term "VoIP Headset" is only a marketing term to bring the attention to VoIP users that a particular headset "can" be used to make VoIP calls over a PC.

The reality is, you can use any microphone, headphones, or combination headset that includes earphones and mic for telecommunications over the computer.  Makes no difference whether you are VoIPing or calling direct on PSTN line using Voice Modem on computer connected to phone line as many telemarketing companies do.

One of the best names in headsets is Plantronics.  They tend to be on the pricey side, but they have a high reputation.

I use the Plantronics DSP-400 and DSP-500 "USB" headsets for all my PC VoIP calls.  

DSP headsets are considered the best because they incorporate audio signal processing and noise reduction.

USB headsets plug directly into any USB port on your PC and does not require you to use the separate mic. or headphone jacks.

You want a USB "Headset" also because it includes a microphone built-into the headset and thus you can operate the PC "hands-free" without having to tie-up one hand for holding microphone or a telephone handset.

Answer 3

some VOIP lines dont plug into the computer at all, its just phone service through your cable line.  

Phone services like Vonage have to be closer to the computer, because it actually uses up your internet bandwidth.

Insight doesnt, thats who I work for.
