MoIP - Morse over IP
In analogy to voice over ip (voip) we can also do morse code over ip (moip). A number of different approaches for CW over IP exist. Here we describe the well-establised CWCom protocol (since 1998). Besides a variety of other approaches exist, for example an IRC plugin (CWirc), a JavaScript implementation, a bandwidth-eating UDP implementation, a chat for iOS or a modulated CW over IP using Mumble (iCW).
CWCom Protocol
The CWCom protocol is an effective method for transmitting morse code signals as UDP packets over ip.
CWCom Servers
Server software:
Bob Denny - http://morse-rss-news.sourceforge.net/
Compatibility
The original CWCom protocol has been extended for MorseKOB, as landline telegraphy uses closed circuits (latching). There are mainly two server types for moip (see below): the original CWCom server and the MorseKOB server. Both servers are compatible using a relay server.

An alternative implementation in C exists as well as a port to the ATMEL AVR Microcontroller.

What is IRMC?
IRMC stands for Internet Relay Morse Code. It implements the as adopted by MorseKOB. You can try out the software in a browser using Java.
