Paging

[jezh19]

Hi Everyone, we are looking at deploying 70 phones to an office using 3CX hosting an a Raspberry PI 5 SBC, one of the requirements is that they have different spaces (warehouse, lunch room, offices etc) and they want the ability to be able to page (one way announcement) to all the phones at the same time (all in the same LAN subnet inc SBC) - We are looking at some of the Yealink T34W, T54W and T33 / T31 (majority of phones will be the latter 2)

Is there anything i am missing about this? Will this work?

It should. Depending on how many extensions in each space you may want to look into multicast paging (configured outside of 3CX).

it will work as you anticipate. one difference between sip paging and multicast is if you have multiple phones in close proximity you may hear some delay which sounds like echo between the devices. multicast solves that audio anomaly but unless your system was physically onsite, like sweet action said, you'll have to configure that outside of the pbx.
