This guide explains how i6x access control works with the PortSIP softphone, covering SIP server registration, mobile softphone login, contacts, 1080P video calls, HD audio calls, one-touch calling, and remote door opening.
PortSIP Softphone is a SIP softphone that initiates or receives calls over Wi-Fi or 4G/LTE. It supports H.264 and VP8 video codecs. With our products, you can use 1080P video calls, HD audio calls, and remote one-touch door opening in the application. This document describes how to use PortSIP UC with the product. After configuration, you can implement these functions on PortSIP.
