Digiumâs A-Series is a line of Asterisk-based deskphone systems designed with high-quality components. The A-Series includes 4 IP Phones: the A20, the A22, the A25, and the A30. Each model includes a full-color display, HD Voice, and multi-line functionality. Letâs take a closer look at them with Marc in the video below:
Entry Level A-Series VoIP Phones: The A20 vs The A22
Digium A20 IP Phone is an entry-level value phone with a 2.8-inch full-color display, 2 line registrations, Power over Ethernet (PoE), and 10/100BASE-T network ports. If the phone is going to be standalone, the A20 is all you need for any kinds of voice communication.

The Digium A22 is another great choice for entry-level professionals. Very similar to the A20, the A22 supports  2 line registrations, 1 feature key, a 2.8-inch full-color display, and PoE. The main difference between the two entry-level phones is that the A22 supports a Gigabit port while the A20 only supports a 10/100 port. If you are connecting your PC to your phone, you will want to consider the A22 Gigabit IP phone!

Question 1: The Grandstream Cloud Management is free “as of today”. Â Will there be a fee in the future?
Answer: We don’t know yet, but we will continue having a free plan.
Question 2: Will the Cloud be extended to control the Router as well as the Access Points?
Answer: The GWN.cloud is designed to manage APs but we may add the router and other Grandstream product in a near future.
Question 3: When creating a wireless bridge, let’s say between buildings, using the 7600LR, what is the maximum distance between the LRs?
Answer: It is 600 Mts (1800 Ft) but due to the nature you may want to reduce it to avoid physical elements that obstruct the signal.
Question 4: Are you planning to implement WPA3 support any time soon?
Answer: Yes, but no ETA at the moment. It is on our roadmap.
Question 5: On the router, what is the throughput of the OpenVPN?
Answer: We recently improved this spec in latest FW, the new spec will be available soon
Question 6: For testing the new WiFi SIP phone would you suggest the best environment would use these AP’s rather than a 3rd party AP?
Answer: We always recommend using the same brand. Grandstream is recognized for providing a hole solution as an added value. Our WP800 will support 3rd party AP’s for sure
