Hi List; I am looking to use an good IP Phone working with Asterisk and work based on PoE (so it takes the power via the ethernet cable, no need to connect for it separated power adaptor). Can someone advise me for good one? Regards Bilal __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Linksys makes a couple of models that work well. I'm using an SPA922, but for about $30 more you can get an SPA942 which has two line appearances. Check out www.voipsupply.com for more details. And no, I am not related to voipsupply.com in any way! Good Luck!

They work pretty good (Decent speakerphones). They're a little on the high side and I wish the softkeys were more configurable
Cisco 7970 supports 802.3af and has full support under asterisk for both SIP and Skinny with chan_sccp. The 7940's are solid phones but they do not support 802.3af so you need to use Cisco's PoE gear. Also make sure to get a service contract for each of the type of phone you buy, so you can get firmware updates.

I use the Linksys SPA-942-na's with great success. For a good POE switch, the linksys swr224p fits the bill too. -ejay bilal ghayyad wrote:> Hi List; > > I am looking to use an good IP Phone working with > Asterisk and work based on PoE (so it takes the power > via the ethernet cable, no need to connect for it > separated power adaptor). > > Can someone advise me for good one? > > Regards > Bilal >

Since noone else has said Snom yet, I'll say Snom. Actually, does anyone make an IP phone which doesn't do PoE? /Benny
No - at least not that I've been able to figure out. These phone's were made to be used with Cisco's Call manager software (Skinny?) and the SIP firmware doesn't seem to allow this. Softkey buttons (like hold, transfer, conference), seem to be static and you can't change them. You could always use asterisk feature codes of course (like *68, etc). There could be options that I've overlooked but the softkeys seem to be fixed. There IS a row of "Line Appearance" buttons on the side which you can either program as a line or as a speed dial. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to program the speeddials via tftp either. I've had to manually go in and program speed dials on each phone. I have heard that the 7970 is much more configurable via XML files. I don't know if this is true or not and I don't know how this phone compares to the 7960 On 10/6/06, bilal ghayyad <bilmar_gh@yahoo.com> wrote:> > Thanks a lot for your kindly reply. > > You can do button assignment, so u can assign for the > button a function like call forward, call pickup, ...? > Please advise me. > > Regards > Bilal > > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
