Grandstream GRP2613 IP Phone, 6 Lines, 2.8 Inch Colour, Gigabit PoE

Overview

A team leader, a small call group or a reception point needs many call appearances and quick ways to hold and conference. The Grandstream GRP2613 is a six-line phone from the GRP2600 Professional range with a 2.8 inch colour screen, dedicated Phonebook, Conference and Hold keys, high-definition (HD) audio and two Gigabit ports with built-in Power over Ethernet (PoE). The wired model registers four Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) accounts, and its six line keys page through up to 24 virtual busy lamp field (BLF) keys. An adapter is in the box.

Is it right for you?

• Suits busy desks such as team leaders, small call groups and reception points on Gigabit PoE networks.
• Six line keys let you hold and switch between more calls than a two or four-line phone.
• Works with or without PoE, since an adapter is included.
• Choose the GRP2613W instead if you need six SIP accounts, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth.

Key features

• 6 lines and 4 SIP accounts, so a busy desk can hold six calls across four numbers.
• 2.8 inch colour screen (320 x 240) whose 6 line keys page through up to 24 virtual BLF keys, so you can watch a whole team’s lines without a key module.
• Two switched Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mbps) network ports, so a computer connected through the phone keeps its full Gigabit link, with built-in PoE (IEEE 802.3af) so the phone can draw power from a PoE switch.
• HD wideband audio on the handset and speakerphone, and 5-way audio conferencing with Opus and G.722 codecs, so calls sound clear and a small group can join one call.
• Dedicated Phonebook, Conference and Hold keys, so common actions take one press.
• Swappable faceplate, so you can add your company logo.
• XML screen customisation and a 2,000-record call log.
• Zero-touch cloud provisioning through Grandstream Device Management System (GDMS), with secure boot and encrypted data storage.

What else you need

• A SIP account for each line, from a phone system (IP PBX) in your building or in the cloud, or from a hosted voice over IP (VoIP) provider. The phone registers to any of them over standard SIP.
• Power from either the 5 V DC, 0.6 A adapter that comes with the phone or an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch port, so a desk with PoE needs no mains socket.
• A network cable to the desk: this model has no Wi-Fi.
• Only if you want the phone on a wall, the GRP_WM_S wall mount bracket, sold separately.
• Only if you want a wired headset, one with an RJ9 plug; electronic hook switch (EHS) control works with Plantronics headsets.

Installation

A desk phone is a plug-in job that an office IT person or phone installer can do: fit the handset cord, connect the network cable and the power adapter or a PoE switch port, then enter the SIP account details in the phone’s web interface. For a roll-out of many phones, an installer can push the settings through GDMS or TR-069 instead.

The supplied desk stand gives two desk angles.

For wall use, fit the GRP_WM_S bracket. Screws and wall anchors are not included with the bracket, so match them to your wall. Reverse the hookswitch tab under the handset rest so the handset stays put when the phone is upright.

Software and licences

GDMS cloud provisioning and TR-069 let an installer or IT team configure, monitor and update phones centrally, and the web interface covers a single phone. Grandstream’s Click2Dial browser extension places calls from a computer.
