Hi, I am trying to find the right solution to to complement a system I want set up. I am looking for solid state SIP Proxy/Registrar that can be placed on the customer premises to handle internal call routing (between both phones and gateways) whenever the primary (remote) SIP PBX becomes unavailable (because the WAN link is down).
I don't need a bunch of bells and whistles, just automatic failover, remote provisioning and of course the proxy/registrar service. Here is a picture: http://www.comdasys.com/Products/images/products/enterprise2.png I have looked at a number of solutions out there but haven't found any that are quite right, usually because of unneeded functionality (and hence high price), restrictive licensing (having to install additional user licenses post deployment won't scale well for me) or lack of distribution in North America (though this is not a show stopper). Does anybody have any recommendations? Here are my criteria: - No moving parts - Secure remote provisioning - SIP compliant proxy and registrar server - Automatic failover when WAN goes down - unrestricted user licensing - *Costs less than US$300* Nice to have: - VPN - QoS - FXO/FXS ports built-in - Distributed in N. America Here is what I have found so far: Comdasys Convergence 550 - http://tinyurl.com/o6jjz - looks great, but not sure about distribution and price. Soundwin SVR400 - http://www.soundwin.com/svr.php - Even more iffy regarding distribution and price. Linksys SPA9000 IP PBX - http://tinyurl.com/pe7cu - pricey ($400-$700) + annoying license restrictions Patton SmartNode 4520 series - http://www.voipsupply.com/product_info.php?products_id=870 - nice. but a bit out of my price range Intertex SurfinBird - http://www.intertex.se/products/detail.asp?iProductID=58 - seems to fit the bill but the hardware alone is about $250 - licensing restricts number of users and seems complicated - can't find software prices AVM FritzBox, Alcatel Speedtouch 610/620, Welltech Wellgate 3701A - distibution and licensing issues Anybody have experience with these or known of a better solution I haven't mentioned?
