asterisk users - Sep 2003 - Any Universiry using Asterisk ??

Hello all,

Does anyone has experience of deploying Asterisk based VoIP 
solution in a universitywide campus. We are at present 
investigating various Soft PBX for this purpose from different 
vendors Digium,Snom, Pingtel...

We are looking at serving more than 5000 clients and we want to be 
very sure before taking any final decision. I would be glad to 
hear from members who are aware of asterisk use in such 
scenario.

Thanks,
Tarun

you might want to have a look at
http://graphics.cs.uni-sb.de/VoIP/

It's a German university I found to be using Asterisk.

You might want to look at http://www.mediatrix.com/  They have a 24 port FXS
VoIP gateway that might be perfect for your dorms because you can lock them
away in wiring closets in each building where they will not suffer the wear
and tear of college life.  Your students can bring their own single line (a
lot of students like cordless) phones instead of the more expensive IP
phones.  You would be using your IP network for building-to-building
communication and building-to-PSTN communication.

Of course you could still use Snom, Pingtel, and the rest in administrative
and other offices where they need office type phones.

Asterisk (or several of them) with PRI/E1 cards would act as your PSTN
gateway, SIP proxy, voicemail, etc.
