I'd be generally careful with the second ethernet connection. One should look at the chipset of 
the phone. I had pretty bad experiences with somewhat older TI based phones, regardless of the 
manufacturer. The problems became apparent in mixed environments, where some connections were 
gigabit and others not. It can be a nightmare, if you have to offer support.

The best bet is to buy one, and check the performance of the connections. I use some GrandStream 
products myself and the product quality is now much better compared to a couple of years ago.
