[Asterisk-Users] Which IP phone to use in Australia
Hi, all I am in Australia and I have to setup Asterisk in few offices. There will be IP phones in each office and I must be able to call between offices. I need actual handsets. I need "standard" handsets to be used by people. Those must support features like CID, call forward, etc. --- your normal office feature set. Also I need some sort of more complex handset to be used by receptionist. The main problem is that I am in Australia and I need to get phones that can be sourced in Australia. (correct power supplies, certified for australia, etc..) I did look at supported h/w list and I am going to go through all of those companies, but I have no idea on how good/bad those phones are. I really need some advise here. Thanks, Rudolf /*******************************************************/ Rudolf Ladyzhenskii Senior Design Engineer Open Networks Pty. Ltd.

I really need some advise here.Personally, I quite like the polycom phones such as the IP300 and IP600 I've never really bothered with the IP500... They are pretty good as far as admin functionality (control based on FTP files) as well as very functional (user side) and very good quality (low fail rate, look/feel good, excellent audio, etc) There are a few issues I have with them though, the main one being that I can't disable call waiting on the phone. There are workarounds for this though (in asterisk dialplan). Just my 0.02c worth.

[Asterisk-Users] Which IP phone to use in Australia
Thanks for the info. Rudolf -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of Stuart Elvish Sent: Tuesday, February 15, 2005 8:37 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Which IP phone to use in Australia Hi guys, I haven't had the opportunity to play with any Polycom products, although they will probably be the best IP phone available. I have used the Grandstream BT-101/102, the HOP-1003 (upgraded 1002) and Zyxel telephone adapters. My recommendation out of the tried ones would be the Grandstream BT-102 where the phone is on a closed network. My problem with the HOP is that there is no transfer button, this can be worked around with key sequences (*2 for attended transfer, # for unattended transfer) and (if I got it working) the flash key but they aren't optimal in an office setup where un-techno people want to just transfer a call with a button and the overall receiver volume seems to be lower (definitely than the analogue adapter). The HOP does have one advantage: it only beeps once when you get an incoming call along with a message on the display unlike the BT-101/102. The Zyxel equipment works great for us and it supports callerID (only the number) but it does mean the cost of an analogue phone. If you have an issue with network cabling, the Zyxel is good because you can run two analogue phones from one network cable, and there is a hub built into the back which allows inline connection to a PC. This having been said, because they are analogue, you need to use the *2 and # keys for transfer etc. I would be interested in trying (and have been offered but haven't had the time) a new Sipura telephone, it includes two line indicators. Whilst this isn't ideal for a receptionist (I think Snom would be the only option for a receptionist with the additional indicator panel) it would be nice for a general office worker who needs one direct line and one general ring group / reception button. They can be expanded to four lines with some sort of software upgrade. One thing to be aware of - where you will be setting up standalone offices (i.e. one person at home behind DSL) you should consider the firewalling etc but seeing as the original question came from the experts - they should be able to sort it out! Our experience is that some hardphones will even have troubles with specific firewalls, yet they will work quite happily with a Billion style product (sorry to bring that up....). Hope this helps.

I have used the Grandstream BT-101/102, the HOP-1003 (upgraded 1002) and Zyxel telephone adapters. My recommendation out of the tried ones would be the Grandstream BT-102 where the phone is on a closed network. My problem with the HOP is that there is no transfer button, this can be worked around with key sequences (*2 for attended transfer, # for unattended transfer) and (if I got it working) the flash key but they aren't optimal in an office setup where un-techno people want to just transfer a call with a button and the overall receiver volume seems to be lower (definitely than the analogue adapter). The HOP does have one advantage: it only beeps once when you get an incoming call along with a message on the display unlike the BT-101/102. The Zyxel equipment works great for us and it supports callerID (only the number) but it does mean the cost of an analogue phone. If you have an issue with network cabling, the Zyxel is good because you can run two analogue phones from one network cable, and there is a hub built into the back which allows inline connection to a PC. This having been said, because they are analogue, you need to use the *2 and # keys for transfer etc. I would be interested in trying (and have been offered but haven't had the time) a new Sipura telephone, it includes two line indicators. Whilst this isn't ideal for a receptionist (I think Snom would be the only option for a receptionist with the additional indicator panel) it would be nice for a general office worker who needs one direct line and one general ring group / reception button. They can be expanded to four lines with some sort of software upgrade. One thing to be aware of - where you will be setting up standalone offices (i.e. one person at home behind DSL) you should consider the firewalling etc but seeing as the original question came from the experts - they should be able to sort it out! Our experience is that some hardphones will even have troubles with specific firewalls, yet they will work quite happily with a Billion style product (sorry to bring that up....). Hope this helps.

I really need some advise here.The Cisco 79xx range of IP phones (including 7905G, 7940G and 7960G) work just fine in Australia, and have an A-Tick. The CP-PWR-CUBE= is the official power pack, which works with any standard IEC computer power cable. There's also a cheaper generic power pack available from some retailers, or if you have a Cisco PWR switch you can use Cisco PoE. The three types allow one to match the phone to a person's calling requirements. I typically buy my phones from Techtopia (http://www.techtopia.com.au). Buying locally means that there aren't any issues with power supplies, customs, etc. I've tried two types of phones - Grandstream BT-101 and the Ciscos. The Grandstream is useless for any serious calling, and would not be recommended for a receptionist. We've had it do all sorts of nasty things including putting a call on hold indefinitely when trying to transfer. One particular version of the firmware also caused problems with our network. It's also necessary to press "send" after dialing a number (or wait for the timeout). No A-Tick either. The Cisco phones do their job brilliantly - they also look very nice aesthetically. They're exceptionally easy to use with softkeys guiding one through tasks such as transfer, etc. The 7960 phone is perfect for a receptionist - it supports a headset (as does the 7940), and can have up to 12 simultaneous calls over 6 'lines'. One can also configure a dial plan on the Cisco phones, so that calls progress automatically when the correct number of digits has been entered (eg: 0 02 5551 5551). I spent around an hour testing the Polycom IP500 and IP600 phones nearly two years ago (when my interest in VoIP was picking up). They seem quite nice, but i don't have any of these deployed. I refuse to - Polycom won't sell them to people for use with Asterisk, and I'm not going to buy products from a company that try and dictate how I use their product. -Shaun
Regarding your quote about Polycom - I'm not sure what you mean by 'Polycom won't sell...' We have over 100 polycom's out and about, all hooked into our 3 Asterisk servers.

[Asterisk-Users] Which IP phone to use in Australia
You ahve to run Linux anyway. TFTP is very easy to setup. Rudolf You'll need a TFTP server to get the SIP firmware on the phone. For small deployments you can configure the options on the phone itself, but for anything more than 2 phones, I'd recommend a TFTP server.> Stuart-Shaun _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
