There was little to no downtime at this years ITEXPO for us, and that’s the way we like it! But somehow, between all o the traffic at our booth and all of the fun and excitement the show has to offer, we were still able to find time to sit down and talk to Fanvil!
Being a distributor of Fanvil, it was nice to stop by their booth and get some exciting news and information from their Sales Manager for North America and Brazil, Tommy Cheng.
Tommy was nice enough to cover a lot of hot topics including new releases and what we can expect to see from Fanvil in the future! He was even able to show us the hot new X210 executive level IP phone which is available for preorder now!
We had such a great chat with Tommy, we’re lucky we were able to get it on camera because now we can share this fun and exciting interview with YOU! Just click on the video above get all the latest from Fanvil!
This week, Grandstream and VoIP Supply hosted another successful webinar to talk about SLA and SCA features. We received a lot of great questions during the webinar that we’d like to share with all of you who might have missed it!
Shared Line Appearance (SLA) allows mapping the line key on the IP phone to the POTS lines
Shared Call Appearance (SCA) allows multiple phones to share the same extensions and services

Grandstream Webinar Q&A Session
Q1: Does the SLA work with PRI?
A: Grandstream’s UCM PBX has a built-in PRI you can use. You can use SCA to monitor the lines. This method only works if each channel has a DID that is only directed to an extension. It’s pseudo monitoring, but there is no true trunk monitoring for PRI.
Q2: Can you have a private extension use SCA and not ring on incoming calls? For example you only want a few phones to ring on the lines but everyone else is able to pick up the line and dial out, or grab calls that are on hold?
A: If you don’t want it to ring, you just want to monitor, under “add private number”, you can disable the function. You can also uncheck ”allow origination from this” to block outgoing calls.
Q3: Call Park vs Monitored Call Park feature usage?
A: On your UCM, there’s no difference between these two. For GXP IP phones with a third-party PBX, we suggest using a monitored call park instead of call park.
Q4: If you change the VPK #1 from default does the phone continue to work? I thought VPK #1 always has to be default as the phone needs to know what account to dial and receive calls on.
A: It depends. VPK1 is typically tied to whatever the main account is. Avoid changing this. Please watch the recording for more details.
