Worldwide Conference room setup
Dear Experts, I have a question related to telephony service. We are using IP PBX Grandstream UCM6510 with SIP trunking from The Provider.
So as my understanding, for example if our number is +AA 710xxxxx; I create a conference room in UCM6510 at ext 8888; then when customers want to join a conference room with us, they will call to +AA 710xxxxx, press 8888. Am I right? (AA is my country code)
But the Boss now have some customers in USA, UK,... and he wants his customers will call to USA, UK numbers, (for example: +1xxxxxxxxx; +44yyyyyyyy) respectively instead of our number (+AA 710xxxxx) to join our conference room.
Is this feasible? Can you please suggest the solution? Many thanks!

Hi, I asked the Telco from these countries, and YES they can let us register a SIP number ; then configure it to forward calls to our local number, but the cost is very high.
How about Skype Connect and Skype number?https://download.skype.com/share/business/guides/skype-connect-quick-start-guide.pdf
Have you ever used that? It seems like we can register a SIP account, then purchase Skype numbers from different countries (in ex: USA, Hongkong, Australia,...) and add to the SIP account; so that customers have more choices of number to call us?
But I'm wondering how to configure the SIP account of Skype on Grandstream UCM 6510?
Can you suggest?

How about Skype Connect and Skype number?Looks like it could work.
Never used it, but directions read like configuring it would be the same way you would a SIP trunk.

Hi,
No they dont provide the SIP number on other countries. I asked the Telco on those countries and they quoted in very high rates.

The simple answer is yes. A number of SIP providers will let you get foreign numbers as alive numbers. Check with them first before trying to go other routes for those numbers.
