The Galaxy Mini is a hardware platform that is part of the E-MetroTel overall server portfolio. It is designed for customers requiring 32 stations or fewer.
Running the same UCx software as other E-MetroTel server platforms such as the UCx250 and UCx450, it delivers an optimized set of UCx capabilities to the small and very small business market, including feature functionality normally associated with enterprise businesses such as:
These features are described and are accompanied by explanations of how to configure and assign them in the UCx Features documentation. For example, you can click on this link to review information on the Voicemail to Email functionality.
The UCx software on other hardware platforms supports a number of applications that are that are separately licensed and are primarily designed and suitable for large enterprise customers. One exception to this is the use of Microsoft TAPI, which enables Microsoft Windows PCs to be able to communicate with the UCx software and initiate outbound calls and hang up calls using Microsoft Outlooks, Microsoft Dialer, or any other TAPI compatible applications. It also supports receiving inbound calls with basic caller information on incoming calls so that some TAPI aware applications can use this information to do screen-popup, displaying caller information on the screen. Since this functionality is widely used in small businesses such as law offices and medical clinics, this licensed functionality is available on the Galaxy Mini platform. A full description of the functionality and how to configure it in the UCx software can be found in the TAPI Application document.
The hardware has been designed for simplicity of deployment while still providing flexibility in the number and types of stations and trunks that can be accommodated either with or without the use of plug-in interface modules.
The base Galaxy Mini system can operate as a pure IP Telephony platform with IP telephones and SIP trunks.
The ordering code for the base system is as follows:

While the Galaxy Mini can function as a pure IP Telephony platform (stations and trunks), the hardware is designed to support up to two plug-in interface modules to allow combinations of analog trunks and analog phones.
The following Plug-in modules are available for connecting to analog trunks (FXO ports) and analog phones (FXS ports):
