Howdy All, I'm considering Asterisk / Digium as a replacement to my existing phone switch. I need to continue to be able to push analog lines between multiple buildings in a campus environment. The Digium Analog 410 Card manual states it's not recommended to go beyond 1500 feet distance for an FXS card, and no line should leave the building or be bundled. The 2400 Series Manual does

I am looking at ways to harden my asterisk install to prevent computer related issues from happening. I am concerned about about disk write cache. That seems to be a major source of hard drive corruption on power failure. Hard Drive corruption is simply unacceptable for the 99.999% uptime requirements of my Asterisk install that needs to be as reliable as a proprietary PBX. Of course I will be

I'm trying to understand why vendors keep making 100Mbps integrated 1-port switches in their hardware SIP phones. Even the recently-announced D40 and D50 Digium phones are limited to 100Mbps. Only the more expensive models (like the D70) can run at 1000Mbps. However, you can't expect a firm with hundreds of extensions to buy the most expensive model... And gigabit speed is important when

Hey, all. We're rolling out VoIP, and I'm wondering about PoE recommendations, as we're going to have to replace our current network equipment. My first inclination would be to just plunk down the cash and do a Cisco system, but I'm relatively certain that would get shot down by finance. Any recommendations for a couple-hundred-port solution with VLANs, PoE, and QoS? Don't

Hi, I have a client using Mitel 5212 phones in SIP mode with a 1.4.21.1 Asterisk server (and a couple of previous 1.4 versions). They're mostly happy with the combination except for this one issue. For incoming calls only, either originating from other local SIP phones or from a PRI, calls won't get bridged (remote party get's hung up) if the call is answer too quickly on the

I need to connect up to sixteen phones per building, I can use a cheap hub, but POE would be useful. Is there a cheap POE hub available? Everything I have seen has been expensive. Chris Mason

Does anyone have any experience getting a Mitel SX-200 EL/ML PBX system to work with *? I'm not getting inbound or outbound calls to work. (Inbound caller gets line busy tone.) SETTINGS FROM MITEL: I built a Crossover cable and connected it like this: PSTN--T1--ASTRISK--T1--OLD MITEL -Crossover Cable Pin-out: 1 - 4 2 - 5

I have a small government department that wants me to implement a Asterisk installation, however, they connect to the Government PBX, a Mitel SX200, and want to keep the ability to do that. I know there is no chance to connect the digital extension lines, but would it be possible to have the pbx admins send analogue extensions over and have those lines interface through an FXO interface? Or

Hello, I'm investigating a situation where there was a hundreds of minutes of calls from an internal SIP extension to an 855 number in Cambodia, resulting in a crazy ($25,000+) bill from the phone company. I'm investigating, but can anyone provide some feedback on what's happened here? I'm investigating how this happened as well as what types of arrangements can be made with the

I have a problem which I need to resolve. We are trying to put an asterisk between a Mitel PBX and the world. We are adding Voip service via Asterisk. Here is are config files for the settings but our problem is the following. We are able to send calls to the Mitel pbx and it's the T1 connections is green saying it's ok. The support department from Mitel said that they use e&M and

Hello, I have seen the Mitel 5055 SIP phone mentioned a few times on the list, does anyone have any wonderful or horrible things to say about it? We are thinking about using them because they have many more programmable buttons than the Snom200 phones and are about $70 cheaper. Thanks, MATT---

Hi all, I have a user with an old Mitel PBX connected to a couple of SPA112's. The user is reporting that their phones ring several times a day and when they answer the "call," all they hear is dial tone or busy signal. Their PBX guy says that the SPA112's aren't providing line supervision and the PBX requires it. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'd also like to

Hello I think I finally understood the issue/solution, but I'd like to make sure I'm correct: - In Diana Cionoiu's famous article on Freshmeat (http://freshmeat.net/articles/nat-traversal-for-the-sip-protocol), regardless of whether SIP end-points use a public IP or are behind a NAT, RTP packets flow directly between the two SIP end-points because the SIP server only acts... as an

Hi, Which is your favorite desktop wifi sip hardphone ? I'm looking for something like http://www.mitel.com/DocController?documentId=19401 which could be easily moved from one meeting room to another. (In this specific case, finding an electrical plug to power a large desktop phone is seen more relevant than finding an PoE Ethernet plug or using a mobile handset.) Which product would you

Hi all, Our company has deployed a Mitel 3300 system (only about 2.5 years ago) and we are experimenting with setting up Asterisk in our head office (for business continuity, ie we have a bird flu epidemic and no-one can come in, therefore use SIP softphones at home to co-ordinate activity) and at a remote site in the Isle of Man (connected via 2Mbps SDSL) Ideally we'd like anyone on either

How would you categorize a Yellow Alarm sensed by the Asterisk side in a Legacy PBX integration? We have a Mitel SX200 connected to an Asterisk(1.2.4) with a TE110P. Twice today (first time in over a month) we received a Yellow Alarm on the TE110P. I have been able to clear it easily by restarting zaptel. Thanks in advance! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Hi there, In Cisco web site http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/phones/ps379/products_data_sheet09186a008008884a.html It says that regardless of the technology used you have to buy a licencse. Does the license apply to use the phone with asterisk, or, can i just buy the phone? Also, the phone does not requiere to use an AC adapter if used with PoE injectors/switches. Can non-Cisco PoE

Okay, I am facing a move in two months to newly renovated space. I have to decide *this week* between: A) Pull LAN and phone cables, prepare to move and expand our "traditional" PBX (Panasonic KX-TD1232 and VPS200). or B) Pull only LAN cables, go VoIP, use Asterisk as PBX. It is *not* an option to purchase a VoIP system package from Cisco, 3com, etc. Installers are getting an

I've configured an analog/single line off my mitel sx-2000 to a x100p card in my *, however when the remote caller drops the line I get a dialtone back from my pbx and the x100p doesn't detect the end of the call. Any way I can tell * to drop? I've tried call progress but it doesn't seem to work...
