Product Description

Vodavi 6830 is an IP phone designed to support hosted telephony services over a managed IP (Internet Protocol) network. Calls and features are controlled by your “Call Server” employing MGCP (Media Gateway Control Protocol) to provide real-time telephone communication over your Ethernet LAN connected to the Provider’s IP network. Signaling and control information is exchanged between the Vodavi 6830 and the Call Server while voice packets are exchanged on a point-to-point basis between the phone and the connected party through the Service Provider’s network.

Features and functions available to the Vodavi 6830 through the Call Server are similar to those of a conventional business telephone. For ease of use, the Vodavi 6830 is equipped with fixed feature buttons, flexible (programmable) feature buttons, an LCD display, soft keys, and a dial pad. These elements are described in more detail in General Description section below.

Features available to the Vodavi 6830 are dependent upon the Call Server and configuration of the IP Phone in the Server’s User Portal. Details on the features available from the Call Server and User Portal are available in the user guide available from the Service Provider’s representative.
