3CXPhone 5 adds video, BLF to free soft phone in Smartphone Look
London - November 30, 2010- 3CX today announced a new version of its popular free VoIP soft
phone for Windows, 3CXPhone 5. New features added to 3CXPhone 5 include standards based video
support, multiple SIP profiles, BLF and the ability to provision and manage all soft phone
installations network wide. 3CXPhone 5 will remain completely free.
“The soft-phone is now a serious desk phone option for businesses. They are easy to manage,
save on administration and are free. They also save electricity. With 3CXPhone 5, soft phone
installs can be easily provisioned and managed network wide. 3CXPhone is also very easy to
setup as a remote extension, allowing users to connect into the company phone system from
wherever they are” said Nick Galea, 3CX CEO.
New features in 3CXPhone 5:
Video Support
Video calls can be established with the click of a button. 3CXPhone 5 video support is
standards based and has been tested with popular video phones from Yealink and Grandstream.
Multiple Profiles
It is now possible to register against multiple PBX’s or VoIP providers at the same time. This
allows seamless connection to multiple offices or the ability to make or pick up calls from
different VoIP providers from a single 3CXPhone install.
BLF and Speed Dials
3CXPhone now includes the ability to configure up to 20 BLF lights or speed dials. BLF lights
can be used to monitor other extensions and provide single click transfer to that extension.
Zero Admin
3CXPhone 5 is now much easier to manage in a network. It can be provisioned remotely with all
relevant configuration information such as authentication, SIP Server details, tunnel
connections and the phonebook. Users can install 3CXPhone by clicking on an HTTP link. The soft
phone will be installed and automatically provisioned with the correct information so that the
user can use the phone immediately. In addition, network administrators can push out software
updates automatically to 3CXPhone 5, without having to visit each workstation.
Completely Free
3CXPhone is provided completely free of charge to individuals and organizations including
commercial entities. All features (including call transfer) are enabled. This makes it easy for
companies to deploy it on any Windows desktop without having to worry about cost or licensing
hassles.
Remote Extensions are easy with the 3CX Tunnel
3CXPhone can easily be configured as a remote extension, allowing users away from the office to
easily connect to the corporate phone system. The unique tunnel feature proxies all SIP & RTP
traffic over a single port and makes firewall and NAT configuration a breeze. It is also
possible to configure it as a remote extension using ‘direct SIP’.
Jabra Headset support
3CXPhone also supports Jabra headsets, making it a good option for call centers.
