Akuvox VP-R49G 7-Inch Android Desktop Video Phone

The Akuvox VP-R49G is a desk phone rather than a wall monitor. It stands on the desk of a reception, a guard room, a manager's office or a nurses' station, and combines a SIP video phone with an intercom answering point: calls from colleagues, video calls with other offices, and calls from Akuvox door phones all arrive on the same 7-inch 1024 × 600 touchscreen.

It takes calls on a corded handset, a 3.5 mm headset or a full-duplex hands-free speaker, with noise suppression and echo cancellation. The 2MP camera has a sliding privacy shutter. Two SIP accounts, call transfer, hold, conference, paging and local call recording cover reception work, and it registers with any SIP PBX.

Because it runs Android 9.0 with 2 GB of RAM and 8 GB of storage, it can also run Android apps, such as a CCTV viewer, a booking system or the building's management app, beside the phone. It has dual gigabit Ethernet ports (one for a PC), Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz, Bluetooth, USB Type-C and an HDMI output to show video on a larger screen.

It runs on 802.3af PoE or the included 12V 1A adapter (about 12 W), measures 250 × 210 × 98 mm on its stand, and is made for indoor use from 0 °C to 40 °C.
