The Fanvil X6U tops the XU Series with a 4.3-inch main screen and two 2.4-inch side screens for up to 60 DSS keys, plus 20 SIP lines, Bluetooth 4.2, gigabit ports and PoE. It is designed for receptions and executive assistants.
====
Reception desks and executive assistants spend the day transferring calls and watching extensions, and that is the job the Fanvil X6U is built for. As the top model in the Fanvil XU Series, it carries three color screens: a 4.3-inch main display plus two 2.4-inch side screens for DSS keys, giving up to 60 programmable keys. It also supports 20 SIP lines, built-in Bluetooth 4.2 and dual gigabit ports with PoE.
Three screens on the Fanvil X6U
The 480×272 main screen shows the active call and menus, while the two side screens list extension names and status. Instead of paging through one screen, you see 12 keys at once, and up to 60 across 5 pages.
- 20 SIP lines and 5 LED line keys.
- 12 visible DSS keys, up to 60 in total.
- 51-key keypad with dedicated phonebook and call log keys.
- Two 10/100/1000 Mbps ports with integrated PoE.
Built for reception and executive support
A receptionist at a 50-person company needs to see most extensions at a glance. On the X6U you can put departments on the left screen and managers on the right. With BLF on the PBX, the LEDs show who is on a call, so the receptionist transfers or takes a message instead of leaving callers waiting. An executive assistant can monitor the manager's line and pick up its calls from the same key, depending on PBX settings.
Bluetooth and HD audio
A Bluetooth headset pairs directly with the phone, so you can move around while staying on the call. G.722 and Opus wideband codecs, echo cancellation and noise reduction keep audio clear, and the phone hosts 6-way conferences. Plantronics and Jabra wireless headsets are supported through EHS cables.
Where it works in Saudi Arabia
- Company and medical complex receptions in Riyadh, Jeddah and Khobar.
- Executive offices at head offices and government entities.
- Hotel front desks routing calls between departments.
- Call center supervisors watching agent status on the keys.
Compatibility and deployment
The X6U uses SIP 2.0 over UDP, TCP and TLS with standard SIP IP PBXs. Auto provisioning through DHCP Option 66, HTTPS or TR-069 speeds up deployment, and VLAN, 802.1x and OpenVPN or L2TP VPN support remote branch users. The USB port records calls to a flash drive or takes a WF20 dongle for Wi-Fi.
X6U, X5U or X210i?
Compared with the X5U, the X6U adds a second DSS screen for 60 keys instead of 30, a 4.3-inch main screen instead of 3.5, 20 SIP lines instead of 16 and a fifth line key, in a wider 239 mm body versus 214 mm. The X210i is a paging console with the same 20 SIP lines, but it has 42 physical DSS keys (up to 106), two 3.5-inch side screens and a gooseneck mic, supports only 3-way conferencing against 6 on the X6U, and is desk-only. Choose the X6U for a front desk and the X210i for a control or paging room.
