Grandstream GXP2140 IP Phone, 4 Lines, 4.3 in Colour LCD, Bluetooth, PoE

Overview

The Grandstream GXP2140 is a four-line desk phone with a 4.3 inch colour screen that can grow into a reception or attendant console later by adding up to four GXP2200EXT key modules. It suits busy users with medium to high call volumes who want a large screen now and the option to watch many extensions later. It has Bluetooth for a headset, a USB port, and is powered over the network cable (Power over Ethernet, PoE) or by the adapter in the box.

Is it right for you?

• Suits users with medium to high call volumes who want a large colour screen, and offices that may need a reception console later without replacing the phone.
• If you need many busy lamp field (BLF) keys on the phone itself without a side module, the GXP2160 has the same screen with 6 lines and 24 physical BLF keys.
• If you need 12 lines and 48 on-screen BLF keys with the same expansion support, see the GXP2170.
• Each GXP2200EXT module adds 20 dual-colour keys with two pages, and the phone powers the modules.
• It needs a SIP phone system (IP PBX) or hosted VoIP service to register to.

Key features

• 4 Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) accounts and 4 line keys.
• 4.3 inch (480 x 272) colour TFT LCD and 5 programmable soft keys.
• Supports up to 4 GXP2200EXT expansion modules, powered by the phone.
• Dual switched Gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) with integrated PoE (802.3af), so one cable serves the phone and the PC beside it.
• Bluetooth V2.1 for headsets and mobile devices, a USB port, and an RJ9 headset jack with electronic hook switch (EHS) support for Plantronics headsets.
• 5-way audio conferencing and a phonebook of up to 2,000 entries.
• HD (high-definition) audio on handset and speakerphone. Codecs G.729A/B, G.711µ/a, G.726, G.722, G.723.1, iLBC and Opus.

What else you need

• A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) call server to register to: a Grandstream UCM (Unified Communications Manager) IP PBX, which can also set the phone up with zero configuration, or a hosted internet calling (VoIP) service.
• A network cable to the desk.
• Power from an 802.3af PoE switch port or injector, or from the universal power adapter in the box (100 to 240 V AC input, 12 V DC 1 A output) and a mains socket. Power draw is up to 6 W, rising to 10 W with four expansion modules attached.
• Only if you want more BLF keys: up to 4 GXP2200EXT expansion modules.

Installation

The base stand sits on the desk, and expansion modules attach to the side and take their power from the phone. Patch the PC through the second Gigabit port. A telephony installer or IT team registers it to the call server, or a Grandstream UCM can provision it automatically.

Software and licences

Works with standard SIP platforms and Grandstream UCM IP PBXs. Provisioning options include TR-069, AES-encrypted XML files and the Grandstream Device Management System (GDMS), so a batch of phones can be configured without touching each one.

Before you buy

• A universal power adapter (12 V DC 1 A) is in the box, and the phone accepts 802.3af PoE.
• Power draw rises from 6 W to 10 W with four GXP2200EXT modules, so check the PoE budget of the switch port if you plan to add modules.
• Size 228 x 206 x 46.5 mm, weight 0.98 kg. Operating temperature 0 to 40 °C.
