Baudisch Modular System

The Modular System consists of a robust range of modules enabling installers to build a solution that is specifically designed around a customers requirements. Modules include IP cameras, keypads, RFID proximity readers and touch screen comms panels. Combining any three of the modules with the IP65 housing will give you a fully IP65 rated SIP door entry solution.

The whole range is fully SIP compliant and has been through extensive testing with ProVu’s technical team who have run interop tests with a wide range of SIP PBX systems and many leading Hosted Telephony providers.

snom phones – which caller ID to use on inbound calls

There are several ways a snom phone can get Caller ID Name for an inbound call.

The first is from the Invite message of the inbound call from the sending SIP end-point. If a “Name” part of the Caller ID exists then this will be used by the Snom phone to display the name on the screen.

The phone can also get a name from it’s internal address book or an LDAP server if one is configured. However, it will only use this if there is no “Name” part of the Caller ID in the incoming Invite.

If you want to change this behaviour set this setting in the Snom phone’s web interface:

  • Advanced => Behaviour => Prioritise PBX Number Lookup

To “off”. Then an internal address book or LDAP server will take precedence.

UPDATE

This setting has no been superseded. From software version 8.7.3.19 use setting contact_source_priority

Latest Protalk door entry news

With the huge amount of interest we are seeing in our IP Door Entry systems we are pleased to bring you this dedicated product update with news on:

  • New models,
  • A low cost bundled solution,
  • Plus how to get your PBX or hosted service fully tested and approved for working with our IP Door entry systems.

New Slim IP Door Entry system with Integrated RFID reader



This new Slim IP Door entry model features an in-built RFID reader that enables authorised personnel to gain access to a building or office by simply presenting an RFID tag or card up to the unit.

It is a really neat all in one system that eliminates the need for every one to have to speak with some one on the inside in order to gain access to the building.

Of course normal visitors will simply press the single button below the RFID reader and speak with a receptionist or other person within the building. They can then allow visitors access in the normal way by tapping the default release code into their IP phone.

Use the snom one mini PBX for a low cost IP door Entry bundled solution

By combining the new snom one mini PBX with our range of IP Door Entry systems we are now able to offer a extremely competitive low cost bundled solution.

The snom SoHo PBX has a trade price of just £155 and is supplied complete with the snom ONE PBX software with up to 10 extensions.

This bundle is ideal for those installations where a small phone system is required purely to route calls from the door entry system to IP phones or PCs. However being a fully featured business class PBX it will also provide the flexibility to route calls to other locations and or iPads or smart phones.

The snom SoHo PBX is compatible with all our Slim IP Cityline and Skyline range of IP Door Entry systems
