Jerry,

 

Do you have it setup so that multiple phones answer one extension?  I tried that setup with two Cisco phones, however, only the quickest responding phone answered.  If you have a config that rings multiple phones  and all of the phones answer the same call, I'd be interested to see the config.  I guess theway to do it would be to setup a meetme conference and then dial all parties into the conference then speak....

We do the same thing with the Snom phones. They can be set up for auto-answer, and they have a speaker jack in the back that is the same levels as a sound card on a PC. And the Snom phone automaticly hangs up when the caller hang up is detected (the SIP BYE message).

Our setup is to set the OSS device to autoanswer.  The output of the soundcard feeds into a bank of overhead speakers.  If the channel is in use, then the call gets put in a queue until the OSS device is free.

Does anyone have any recommendations for overhead paging systems for use with Asterisk?

Thanks,
