Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and Alcatel digital phone's

Hi Jonathan,

I already looked at their product a few weeks ago, but because Alcatel
wasn't on their list of compatible devices, I left it alone.

Because of your email, I went looking on their site for a second time
and noticed on their blog that they're experimenting with Alcatel
devices.

So after emailing them, there is a chance that we could use their
product for our digital Alcatel phones.

So fingers crossed and thanks for the info ;)

Sander

There is a product from Citel (the TVA) that we're currently using with
Toshiba phones. I know they also support Avaya, Nortel, and Panasonic,
but am not sure if they do any other brands. They more or less convert
your old digital phones to SIP.

They have have full compatibility information on their website...

Asterisk and Alcatel digital phone's 


Hi, 

I'm sorry if this is already asked somewhere on the list but I couldn't
find it. 
We have an old PBX system controlled by our Telecom provider. There are
analog phones but also digital alcatel phone's connected to it. These
are not ip based but legacy digital phone's. 
Is there a way how we can connect them to our own Asterisk PBX? The old
PBX is going to be removed, so it has to be a solution: Digital alacatel
phone - directly connected to Asterisk. 

Short answer NO! 
What you are calling legacy digital phones are not universal, and for
many years have been integrated with the host system. This is generally
true for business systems from 2 lines and six stations to large systems
with hundreds of phones. 




Is there some hardware gateway or something we can use? 
The only gatewaywill be your existing switch or another of the same
generation. 
When the switch is removed, why would the phones not be? 

the analog phones, if they are not special, but POTS phones that could
be used anywhere on a loop start line in a business or home could be
reused, but you may find that you will not want to. 





We looked at the Grandstream GXW4024 gateway for our analog phones but
I'm not sure the digital one's can connect to that one as well. 

No they cannot. 
Better plan on replacing all the Alcatel phones with IP ones.
