Monitor status and troubleshoot using the LED indicators and built-in call, system and debug logs.

Usage recommendations

For reliable voice quality, select an appropriate codec based on available bandwidth (for example G.711 for LAN or G.729A for constrained links), enable echo cancellation if needed, and configure VLAN or QoS on your network to prioritize voice traffic. Place the device on a stable surface or mount it on the wall to save desk space and avoid obstructing ventilation despite the fanless design.
