Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed for communicating between dissimilar radio voice communication devices across a wireless or wireline interface. The apparatus comprises a voice over Internet protocol (voIP) terminal connected to a computer network and an analog radio transceiver. The voIP terminal is comprised of at least one microprocessor for providing master control to a data acquisition (DAQ) board to create a system which is fully integrated in terms of the interface capability it provides to end users. In operation, the voIP terminal receives analog data from the analog radio transceiver, converts the data into a format recognizable by the computer network, and transmits the data to a desired location on the network. It also receives digital data from the computer network and transmits it into a format recognizable by the attached analog voice transceiver.
