Akuvox IP Intercom Integration Overview

This guide introduces key features enabled by integrating the Akuvox IP intercom system with Yeastar P-Series PBX System, including audio/video communication, Linkus client synchronous ringing, and call forwarding, implementing door access control more easily.

Scenario

After integrating Akuvox door phone and indoor monitor with Yeastar P-Series PBX System, these IP intercom devices are registered as PBX extensions.

When a visitor initiates a call via the door phone, the call is routed by the PBX to the extension registered on the inddor station. The extension user can then answer the call, preview live video, and remotely unlock the door, either on the indoor monitor or through the Linkus clients.

Highlight features

Set up communication between Akuvox intercom devices
You can register Akuvox intercom devices (door phone and indoor monitor) with Yeatar PBX either via auto provisioning or via manual setup. After registration, users can initiate direct intercom calls between the devices using their assigned extensions.

Control door access from Linkus clients
Using Linkus clients, you can answer visitor calls, view live video and unlock the door from anywhere without reaching the indoor monitor.

Forward calls to an external number

To avoid missing any visit calls when you can't answer them, you can specify a destination to which calls will be forwarded.
