PortSIP PBX v16.2 is released

Jan 18, 2024, PortSIP, a leading developer of next-generation unified communications solutions, announced the release of PortSIP PBX v16.2.0, available for both Windows and Linux platforms.

The PortSIP PBX v16.2.0 primarily addresses new features and is recommended for all users.

Key Updates in PortSIP PBX Release v16.2.0:

  • Changes the SNOM phone configuration file to HTM format.
  • Enables playing of call recording voice prompts for inbound calls.
  • Allows setting of office hours and holidays for each IVR DTMF input.
  • If an extension is registered to PBX from multiple devices, once one of the devices rejects the incoming call by 486, the PBX will also hang up the call on other ringing devices.
  • Adds an option for the trunk to allow or disallow the PBX to adjust the SDP direction when holding the call.
  • Supports auto-provisioning of emergency numbers to the IP phones, allowing the IP phone to dial the emergency number even when the phone keys are locked.

  • Supports synchronization of the Do Not Disturb (DND) status by pressing the DND button on the IP phone.
