Part 2 of 2 in a series on video conferencing
Last week, we looked at room-installed video conferencing systems. In this article, we look at video phones – and we’re not referring to a Beyoncé song, but rather SIP (session initiation protocol) endpoints that give users video-conferencing capability from their desktop. Here we offer a comparison between the Grandstream GXV3240 and GXV3275, and the Yealink T49G.
Note: Yealink and Grandstream have introduced additional video phones since this article was published. To read about the latest products, click on Yealink or Grandstream in the Topic list to the right.

Most people understand that VOIP allows you to make calls over the Internet, thus saving lots of money in long-distance calls. But VOIP can also be a powerful productivity booster, even for businesses that don’t make a lot of long distance calls. Because IP telephony moves seamlessly between voice and data on the same network, it allows functionality that is not possible when voice is transmitted separately. Here we look at a dozen cool examples of this.
