Post updated 6th October 2017 (removed end-of-life phones and ones no longer supplied through us, and tidied up)
We are quite often asked for IP desk phones that are hearing aid compatible (HAC). HAC means that the phone has a inductive coupler, which will work directly with a hearing aid to give a clearer sound.
I have put a list together of the phones that we sell that are known to be hearing aid compatible:
| Cisco | 502G, 504G CP-7811, CP-7821, CP-7841, CP-7861, CP-8811, CP-8841, CP-8845, CP-8851, CP-8861, CP-8865 |
| Gigaset | DX800A, Maxwell 10 |
| Panasonic | KX-UT113, KX-UT123, KX-UT133, KX-UT136 |
| Polycom | VVX101, VVX201, VVX300/301/310/311, VVX400/401/410/411, VVX500/501, VVX600/601 |
| RTX | RTX8430, RTX8830 |
| snom | D305, D315, D715, D725, D765, D375, M65 |
| VTech | VSP716A, VSP726A, VSP736A |
| Yealink | T40PN*, T41PN*, T42GN*, T46GN*, T48GN* T41S, T42S, T46S, T48S |
* Requires purchase of an additional HAC handset.
This is just a guide, there may be some phones we sell that are not listed here. Check out the phone’s technical data sheet for more information.
Great news, having recently taken a bulk shipment of N510IP PRO bases and R630H PRO ruggedized handsets we are now able to bring you a great new bundle offer at an even LOWER price.
The N510IP supports 4 SIP calls and PoE plus the R630H is ideal for tough environments with its IP65 rating ensuring it is dust proof, highly water resistant and will easily handle the usual rough treatment a cordless phone can take in the work place.
The new bundle prices are now available to order on ProSys our reseller portal. If you do not have a login for ProSys please call the ProVu sales team on 01484 840048 or email contact@provu.co.uk.
Our new complete and slightly lower price list for extended Yealink warranties is now available to view on ProSys.
On top of Yealink’s standard 2-year warranty, you can purchase an additional 1, 2 or 3 years at exceptional value! This is available on the W52P DECT system, along with the W52H additional handsets, as well as all of their deskphones (pricing TBC on the T23GN.)
For more information, simply log into ProSys, or give one of our sales team a call.
To order through ProSys, simply enter the code extwarX/MODEL, with X being the number of additional years you wish to cover.
We are pleased to announce the arrival of the new Yealink T23GN mid range desk phone. This new model is in addition to and builds on the highly popular and successful T22PN. However, whilst it is priced the same as the T22PN the T23GN offers the following additional features:
The T23GN has been fully tested by our technical team and we can confirm that it has all the same auto provisioning capabilities of the T22PN.

The new snom D715 IP phone is now in stock and available at ProVu. This new model replaces the previously popular 715 and has all the same features and auto provisioning capabilities of its predecessor.
The only significant change is to the colour of plastic which is now black. The D715 is in the same form as snom’s 710 but the D715 has the advantage of dual Gigabit Ethernet ports for faster data throughput and a USB port for connecting either a USB headset, bluetooth headset, WiFi dongle or the D7 expansion module.
Here in the sales office, we were very impressed by the technical office’s tree and thought we’d get into the festive spirit ourselves. By one-upping them!
Using a 2N Netspeaker we hooked up our doorbell so that whenever someone presses it, Jingle Bells plays! Along with a blue strobe light being activated.
This is, of course, far from the limit of what a NetSpeaker can do. If you want to know more about it, feel free to give our friendly (and very festive) sales team a call!
Merry Christmas from the ProVu sales team!
Here in the ProVu technical office things are starting to get festive.
Our trusty old Christmas tree has gone up.
With so much in the news this year about the boom we are going to see in IoT & M2M, we thought we’d better smart-enable our Christmas tree to keep up with the times.
I’d been testing the 2n Smartcom Pro recently, so I used that:
This allows me to convert non-IP devices (and our old Christmas tree is definitely not an IP device) into IP-enabled devices I can access over my network.
To actually control the tree’s lights, I used a Zigbee power switch since the Smartcom Pro has a Zigbee interface (amongst others):
This set up allows me to use “AT” style commands over a telnet connection from any computer on our network to the Smartcom to turn the Christmas tree lights off and on. That works OK but is rather cumbersome so to finish this off I wrote a quick Python script which connects to the Smartcom and allows me to type in simple commands to control our tree.
Here is a short video of it in action:
What’s the point you might ask? Well there isn’t a great deal of point to this other than a bit of fun. However, one of the biggest causes of fires around Christmas time is tree lights being left on unattended (so I’m lead to believe) so ensuring these are automatically turned off when everyone has left the office is a good idea!
Cheers,
Paul.
The Algo 8128 SIP Strobe light is the ideal solution for visual ringing in such areas as noisy factories, cafeterias, and public areas. Or alternatively it can also be used as a silent visual alert where loud ringing may be disruptive in areas such as hospitals, theatres and, churches etc.
Other applications include emergency and security notification where the press of a single phone key can be used to activate one or many strobe lights. And it can also be integrated within a Call Centre system to provide visual notification when queues and waiting times are exceeding there maximum thresholds.
