Fanvil LINKVIL W626W Rugged Wi-Fi Phone, Wi-Fi 6, IP67, 1.8 m Drop Rated, Alarm Key

Overview

The Fanvil LINKVIL W626W is a rugged handheld phone that works over your Wi-Fi network. It suits staff who move around factories, warehouses, hospitals, hotels and large shops, where a desk phone is out of reach and a normal handset would not survive drops, dust or cleaning.

Is it right for you?

Choose the W626W if your staff need a phone they can carry all shift, in places where it may get wet, dusty or dropped. It is sealed to IP67, rated for 1.8 m drops and made with antibacterial, chemical-resistant materials for regular cleaning. A red alarm key and motion alarms (man down, no movement, running) help lone workers call for help. If your people stay at a desk, a desk phone is simpler.

Key features

What else you need

• A Wi-Fi network covering the areas where staff walk, preferably with 802.11k/v/r roaming support on the access points

• A Bluetooth headset or USB-C headset if staff want hands-free calls

Installation

No wiring is needed for the phone itself. Join it to Wi-Fi (several phones can share network details, or scan a QR code), then register it to your phone system. The charging base sits on a desk or mounts on a wall. Installers can provision many handsets at once over FTP, TFTP, HTTP, HTTPS, DHCP option 66, SIP PnP or TR-069.
