That's pretty much the reason we're not going with converters in our installation. It's cheaper for us to drop the money on all new sip phones and replace all the digital sets, then it would be to buy the converters and then convert the digital sets over to actual ip phones later on. It's a cost analysis that some companies will find is better, and some won't :)

Citel offers advantages in many situations so long as you are careful about
the economics of this trade-off, particularly in smaller installations where
the number of handsets is not a multiple of the gateway's port count. Empty
ports can chew up savings fast, as can support costs. We found support for
each gateway port to be significantly higher than SIP phone support.

If you are replacing a legacy PBX, then you can save yourself lots of
work by using Citel SIP Handset Gateways to connect your legacy
business sets to SIP networks (including Asterisk).  You get to keep
your current handsets and wiring, so you don't need to pay for new
phones, rewiring, or PoE.

For more information, visit www.citel.com and look at Handset Gateways.

Does this system support any type of handset?  I notice there is a list of
digital phone it supports but the units we have now are Plantronics T10 or
T100 and T20's.  Are these supported?

Thanks,

Fred
