Fanvil I501W SIP Indoor Station
The Fanvil i501W is a screenless SIP indoor station designed for residential communities, apartment buildings, offices, hotels, villas, and other access-control environments where users need convenient visitor communication and remote door release. Its magnetic handset, full-duplex hands-free audio, dedicated unlock control, and three configurable function keys provide a simple interface for everyday intercom and entry-management functions.
Built-in dual-band Wi-Fi 6 gives the i501W additional deployment flexibility compared with the wired i501, while a 10/100 Ethernet interface remains available for network connectivity. The station supports two SIP lines, G.722 and Opus HD audio, one short-circuit input, desk or wall mounting, and one-touch remote door unlocking for compatible SIP door-phone and access-control deployments.

Compatibility & Buying Information
Exact NTS Product: This page is for the Fanvil i501W SIP Indoor Station sold under NTS Direct SKU I501W-Z.
i501W vs. i501: The i501W adds built-in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi 6. The standard i501 does not include Wi-Fi but supports PoE. The i501W does not support PoE and must be powered from its 5V / 1A DC power adapter.
Power Adapter Included: Fanvil's exact QIG specifically identifies the power adapter as included with the H601W and i501W wireless models. It should therefore be treated as a standard package item for this SKU rather than an optional accessory.
Network Connection: The i501W can use its built-in Wi-Fi 6 connectivity or 10/100 Ethernet for network access. Using wired Ethernet does not provide power because the i501W itself does not support PoE.
Door Unlocking: The dedicated unlock key can remotely release a compatible door station when properly configured with the SIP and access-control system.
Short-Circuit Input: The built-in short-circuit input can be configured for compatible external trigger applications. Exact behavior depends on the connected equipment and system configuration.
Programmable Keys: Fanvil provides three configurable function keys on the i501/i501W platform. Their default functions are Management Office, Do Not Disturb, and Unlock Door, but supported functions can be changed through device configuration.
Screenless Design: The i501W does not include a display or video screen. It is intended primarily for audio intercom communication and remote access control rather than local video monitoring.
