Grandstream GXP2200 EXT LCD Expansion Module, 20 Keys, for GXP2140/GXP2170

Overview

The Grandstream GXP2200 EXT is an add-on key module that sits beside a GXP2140 or GXP2170 desk phone and turns it into a reception or operator console. Its backlit screen labels 20 keys, each of which can show whether a colleague is on a call and transfer a caller to them with one press, so a receptionist or assistant can handle calls for a whole office. Up to four modules chain together on one phone.

Is it right for you?

• Suits a receptionist, operator or assistant who answers and transfers calls for many colleagues on a GXP2140 or GXP2170.
• One module gives 40 entries over two pages; chain up to four for 160 contacts or extensions.
• It only works with the host phones listed here (GXP2140, GXP2170 and the GXV3240 video phone). The GXP2160 and GXP2130 are not on the compatible list.
• Busy lamp status needs a call server that publishes extension states, such as a Grandstream UCM (Unified Communications Manager) IP PBX.
• For GRP2600 series phones, the GBX20 is the matching module instead.

Key features

• 128 x 384 backlit graphic LCD, so key labels are on screen rather than on paper.
• 20 programmable dual-colour keys and two page keys: 40 entries per module.
• Daisy-chain up to four modules for up to 160 contacts or extensions.
• Busy Lamp Field (BLF), speed dial, call park and pickup, presence, intercom, conference, transfer and forward on any key.
• Bridged line appearance (BLA) and shared call appearance (SCA).
• Powered, controlled and upgraded by the host phone; under 1.2 W per module.

What else you need

• A compatible host phone: GXP2140, GXP2170 or GXV3240. The module does nothing on its own.
• No separate power supply: the host phone powers it. With four modules on a GXP2140, allow for 10 W maximum at the phone.
• For BLF status, a call server such as a Grandstream UCM IP PBX that publishes extension states.

Installation

Anyone comfortable setting up a desk phone can fit it: connect the module to the host phone and the phone takes care of power, control and firmware. Plan desk space for the phone plus each module (206 x 117 x 32 mm and 0.38 kg per module) and check the phone’s power budget when chaining modules. Keys are programmed from the phone or its provisioning. Operating range 0 to 40 °C.

Software and licences

Firmware is delivered by the host phone, so there is nothing separate to update or license.

Before you buy

• It is an accessory only and needs a GXP2140, GXP2170 or GXV3240 host phone.
• Not for the GXP2160 or GXP2130.
• BLF status depends on the call server publishing extension states.
