Fanvil X4U IS EOL , USE X4U-V2
The Fanvil X4U is a professional dual-screen business IP phone designed for office users who need high-capacity SIP calling, programmable DSS functions, Gigabit networking, and HD voice. It combines a 2.8-inch main color display with a dedicated 2.4-inch DSS display, 12 SIP lines, up to 30 programmable DSS functions, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, integrated PoE, and 6-way audio conferencing.
Designed for reception areas, administrative workstations, sales teams, customer-service environments, and managed VoIP deployments, the X4U supports Opus and G.722 wideband audio, EHS wireless headsets, IPv4/IPv6 networking, VLAN, QoS, VPN, centralized provisioning, and optional Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity through compatible USB dongles. Its dual-screen layout keeps programmable line and BLF functions visible without taking over the primary call display.

- Power: Supports IEEE 802.3af PoE or 5V DC / 2A power. The external power adapter is optional and should not be assumed to be included.
- Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is not built in. Wireless networking requires the compatible Fanvil WF20 USB Wi-Fi dongle.
- Bluetooth: Bluetooth is not built in. Bluetooth headset connectivity requires the compatible Fanvil BT20 USB Bluetooth dongle.
- Headsets: Supports compatible Poly wireless headsets through the Poly APD-80 EHS cable and compatible Jabra wireless headsets through the Fanvil EHS20.
- Wall Mounting: Desktop stand is included; wall mounting requires compatible wall-mount hardware such as the Fanvil WB102, purchased separately.
- SIP Features: Call parking, pickup, server conferencing, recording, and other platform-dependent features require support from the connected SIP PBX or service provider.
