Wireless SIP Intercom

[Colin911]

Hello. I am looking for a wifi-enabled outdoor intercom that can work with 3cx. Any suggestions?

In the event you can't find exactly what you are looking for, keep in mind that any device, with an Ethernet connection, can be plugged into a Wifi client. Many old routers, that you may have laying around, have this option.

Ok, I guess I could connect to a wireless box. Any suggestions for worked Ethernet devices that are good and compatible with 3cx?

What kind of intercom are you looking for? The Grandstream GSC35xx series is pretty good. It does support Wi-Fi as well.

Looking for something to communicate to people in their cars as they drive up to a service area. Should be loud and weather resistant. I think the grandstream is more for indoor use.

And given there might be limited wireless opportunities, I am happy to consider wired solutions. I'll just put it on a battery pack and wifi connector that gets put indoors and charged overnight.(landlord won't allow the wires)

Given that it sounds to be used only during the day, you might be able to get by with one or two of the 12 volt, solar, car battery, trickle charger panels, to power it. Converted to the correct voltage, of course.

Any device that is normally connected to a phone line (door type intercom, single button, speaker), can be connected to an ATA, then through Wifi. An Additional Wifi access point, or directional antenna could be deployed at the "base" end.

I have the battery bank already set up as we use two Amazon Echo Shows to do this currently. But the weather barriers make the sound really bad and the interior device does not seem to be able to connect to a bluetooth earpiece (although documentation says otherwise).

Fanvil have good external door entry systems.

So if I were to get the i18s for example, if has a video camera. When I call if from 3cx softphone, will i see the video?

To clarify, I'd want to Intercom call the device so that the sure would not have to press anything.
