Re: [Asterisk-Users] FreePBX AAH
This question confuses me. My understanding is that FreePBX is just AMP renamed and AAH comes with AMP setup as the primary way to manage it. So, is the question realy that the user wants a newer version of AMP (read FreePBX) then the one that comes either with the newest version of AAH or the version that they have installed?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream GXP-2000
Because Aastra bundles the 480i with the power injector (not sure how they are distinguished) it is not really an issue other than making sure you ask for ones with the power injector when ordering. In the past some of the 480i's I have received included the power supply. I have PoE everywhere so I have never requested that. not sure what to make of it actually other than they do bundle it sometimes (most likely on purpose). I do know that the part number for the injector itself is D0023-0031-00-00 Richard On 2/20/06, mustardman29 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Kinda like what Cisco does. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 20, 2006 11:22 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream GXP-2000 On Mon, 20 Feb 2006, Richard Amerman wrote: One thing to keep in mind with PoE is that you can simply use an injector at the phone location.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream GXP-2000
One thing to keep in mind with some of these phones is that physical quality can not be changed easily, why software is a different matter, though no guarantees. I have been working with Aastra 480i's for about 14 months and at first they were fairly limited and had many issues. This all turned out to be due to the software being far before its time. As I understand it, and I may be wrong, it was due to existing customer demand that it was released arguably before its time. I came close to switching to another phone, but after the 1.3.0 firmware release, things took a serious turn. As of last week the latest firmware has been released and things are completely different. Everyone seems to agree that the 480i build and voice quality is excellent. I can not say how it compares to the Polycom or other quality phones, but with the new XML features and many other enhancements and fixes, this phone is a serious option. I now have over 40 in operation and everything is great. Since the two cheaper Aastra IP phones use near the same software, I assume they are on par. I do not know about their physical quality though. Please see the following for more information. Join the list also if you are even more interested. http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Aastra+480i That said, from everything I have heard, the Polycom is one to try. I may be very happy with the 480i and likely to continue using and recommending them in the future, but I also intend on trying a Polycom in the near future and likely using them as well.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Aastra phones and common directory?
Just a reminder, there is now a list dedicated to the 480i: http://groups.google.com/group/Aastra-480i-Users Come join in the fun ;-) Also, remember that there is quite a bit of good info on the voip-info.org 480i page Richard On 2/12/06, Carlos Chavez [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Does anyone know if it is possible to upload a common directory to allAastra phones (480i, 9133)?Is there someting equivalent to the way Polycom phones do it?--Carlos ChavezDirector de TecnologíaTelecomunicaciones Abiertas de México S.A. de C.V.Tel: +52-55-91169161 Ext 2001___--Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com --Asterisk-Users mailing listTo UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit:http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk vs. Traditional PBX
Sorry to disagree, but unless you are transcoding or have a significant AGI IVR or something, that server should be just fine. While I prefer a bigger server for most installs, it is not because it is needed, more of a, money well spent kind of thing. If you are transcoding and have an IVR, the picture is diferent. The box I have been using is the Dell 1850 with SCSI RAID. May be overkill for most applications, but it was under $2,000 so it made sense to me.

I'm wanting a solution that will support up to about 200 people, with direct dial-in capability, up to about 30 concurrent phone calls and good voice quality. Right now I have an asterisk deployment with about 15 people on it. We have sipura 841 phones. The biggest issue currently is voice quality. lot of complaints there.I have a dell 650 poweredge (single processory system), with a digium tdm400 card and 4 analog lines plugged into it. So here are my questions: * Is asterisk a good solution for my company ? or should I just install the traditional pbx and look to move to asterisk in a couple of years ? (I personally would prefer asterisk cuz I'm aunix person not a phone person so from a manageability perspective i would love this ) * If I were to go to an asterisk solution to support about 200 people with the requirements above what hardware platform would you recommend ?I'm guessing I'd need a PRI line and a different digium card? Also would a 1cpu poweredge dell be enough ? or would that have to be upgraded too ? If anyone is running an environment similar to this that can provide help I would really appreciate this. I'm having a hard time making this decision and would love to hear anybody's experience in a real time environment. Thanks again this list ROCKS!
