IP Phone Configuration Guides and Software Downloads


Globephonex works with industry standard SIP protocol IP phones. There are three types: hard, soft and firm. Below is a brief description of each as well as example of phones that Globephonex has tested and found to work with our system. Since Globephonex does not dictate what type of IP phones that you can use with our system, there are quite a few variations in configuration and setup procedures. If your device is not listed below, click here for a guide that configures your device with us.

Hard phones are physical pieces of hardware that plug into your network typically through an ethernet connection. They are the best type to use as they have no dependency on a computer. This means that they will work whether your computer is turned off or does not exist at all. Also, it is very nice to use a regular handset style phone instead of a microphone and computer speakers. One potential disadvantage is that your home network needs to have an unused ethernet port in which to plug the phone in.

IP PBX

IP PBXs marries the rich feature set of legacy PBX telephone systems with the convenience and cost advantages of internet telephony. It has common key system features such as an auto attendant, shared line appearances, three way call conferencing, music on hold, "follow me" calling, and many more. IP PBXs opens up access to the benefits of Voice Over IP, including low cost long distance service, phone number portability, and can even converge voice and data into one network.

Soft phones are simply a piece of software that is loaded onto your computer and uses the computer's soundcard as a user interface. Most people start with a soft phone because of their low price (typically free) and availability (easily downloadable). The down side is that you do need a computer and it is often more difficult to use a microphone/headset than a traditional handset.
