Limits of the FRITZ!Box as a telephone system

A FRITZ! box can establish a maximum of 5 (older models) to 8 (newer models) SIP channels simultaneously. If you register an IP phone with the FRITZ! box, it also needs two channels for one call. We therefore recommend that the FRITZ!Box is only used as a telephone system for small companies with a maximum of 5 employees. For more information, please contact AVM.

For larger companies we recommend our Cloud Telefonanlage or one of the PBXs certified for our Trunk.
