Short for
bring your own device. A term often
used to describe a type of
VoIP subscription. Subscribers who have their own
VoIP
device (a
SIP-capable device) when signing up for a VoIP service will
usually be able to take advantage of a cheaper subscription plan, however not
all VoIP providers presently offer special rate plans for subscribers with their
own equipment. If the BYOD subscription is unable through a VoIP provider you
will need to use their equipment instead of your own.
