A VoIP gateway is a device that converts telephony traffic into IP for transmission over a data network, allowing for the integration of traditional phone systems with VoIP networks. An ATA (Analog Telephone Adapter), on the other hand, specifically connects analog telephones to a digital VoIP network, enabling the use of existing analog phones with VoIP services. While both facilitate VoIP communication, gateways handle larger, more complex integrations, whereas ATAs are typically used for simpler, single-device conversions.
