3CX announces they completed interoperability testing for 3CX Phone System version 10 and Grandstream’s latest line of IP Phones – the new executive series GXP 2110, GXP 2120, GXP 2100 and the GXP 1450. The integration between 3CX and Grandstream products means customers are assured of an integrated and fully supported PBX solution. 3CX has created special support for Grandstream phones which includes Plug and Play provisioning, network wide updating of Grandstream phones and automatic provisioning.

3CX Phone System V10 is the latest 3CX release and allows complete network wide management of Grandstream phones from the 3CX Management Console, saving considerable time for administrators. Features include:

• Plug and Play Provisioning – To connect Grandstream phones to 3CX, they just need to be plugged in to the network. The phones will automatically show up in the 3CX Management Console, allowing the administration to assign an existing extension or create a new one with a few mouse clicks.
• Network Wide Firmware Updating – Administrators can see the firmware versions of Grandstream phones, and apply new firmware in batch mode to all or selected Grandstream IP phones on the network.
• Network Wide Configuration – Language, codec preference and time zone can be remotely configured from the 3CX Management Console.
• Assured Interoperability – Grandstream and 3CX undertake to test each release of their software PBX and IP Phone firmware and fix any interop issues. This assures customers of a fully tested and supported solution.

The combined solution is supported by both 3CX and Grandstream and the support teams of both companies will assist customers in the configuration of each others product.
