On the plug, it says 110V. It makes no mention of 220V. With the help of a converter, perhaps.
This model connects to a single analog (POTS) line, allowing for only one call to be made. However, you can make that call to a Conference Calling service to connect with multiple callers, or you can use the "multiple party" dialing features (three way calling) on your phone service or business phone system.
No, the conference phone's cord is an RJ45 plug that supplies power as well as a phone line to the device. A headset base must be in line to work, and it will not work if it is not.

It's easy to transport and set up anywhere there's a phone line, and it's a great deal compared to other models with similar features.
I really like this phone for analog conference calls and phone bridges. I wish someone made it easier to buy longer RJ-45 connectors. br>The expandable version is ideal for the flexibility I need in various meeting venues. br>I wish someone made it easier to buy longer RJ-45 connectors. There are nine cables that can be used to extend the microphones even further. br>The speaker on this device can be heard clearly from 30 feet away in a quiet room. However, in my meeting rooms, I require a microphone capable of picking up the voice of someone speaking at a podium from up to 30 feet away. A simple telephone line coupler and some custom made RJ-45 connectors were used to solve the problem. There are nine cables that can be used to extend the range of the expansion microphones. The audio quality has not been harmed as a result of this change.
In our 12' X 24' conference room, we purchased the SoundStation2 with EX Mic Pods to replace an old Polycom. The sound quality is excellent, and with the Mic Pods strategically placed at the ends of our large conference table, even call participants in the room's corners can now be heard, eliminating the need to move the triangle from one end of the table to the other. It was as easy as plugging everything in and dialing to get started. Mute buttons are located on the Mic Pods themselves. I'm at a loss for words for something negative to say.
The wi- As our company grows, we will be able to use dongles with our wi-fi enabled device. This phone has been used in the last four places where I've worked, and it's the gold standard in the Expandable Conference Room phone market.
This was purchased to replace one that had been given to us previously. We have conference calls about once a week, and we can hear the speaker from anywhere in the room, and the people on the other end can hear us just as well. We don't use the additional speakers that come with this unit right now. Excellent quality.
On speaker, it sounds better than most handheld phones. I spent a long time looking for a conference phone that worked on an analog line, and this one is perfect. On speaker, it sounds better than most handheld phones.
This was for the conference room at our startup, and it took FOREVER. It's exactly what you need (depending on how big the room/table is, you may need those little polycom mic pods, but the speakerphone on this is quite powerful). The sound quality is good, and the keys are easy to press (though they did become a little'soft' over time). If you don't want to spend a lot of money on high-end audiovisual equipment, this is a good option.
I sent it back the same day because no one could understand what I was saying - Even if it were free, you wouldn't use it, according to east of time.
