I'd find that very strange considering that the 57i itself has facility
for at least 20 BLF buttons and /each/ attendant console has facility
for another 60!

We are using 57i + 560M combination as well... though we are not using the 57i

The only downside to the Aastra 57i + 560M is that it can only subscribe to 50
extensions for BLF... i haven;t run into this cap yet myself, but I have heard
others talk about it... I think it was a cap introduced in one of the newer
versions of firmware... not sure though, and not sure why.
I'm running the latest 2.2 firmware on it... the addition of one-touch transfers in
the last firmware was very nice so operator can transfer very fast, instead of having
to do xfer->BLF key->xfer (for attended transfer), now they can just hit the
BLF key for a blind transfer.

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Advice on best operator phone (with attendant
console)
We have been marketing ipPBX systems based on asterisk for 3+ years.
For the last year we've been placing Aastra 57iCT with 560M sidecars.
Our attendants like the idea of a cordless handset so the attendant can
go to the copy room, etc. The LCD based sidecar means you can keep it
up to date without marking up paper strips. We deploy Thirdlane PBX
Manager which allows us to setup the BLF (busy lamp field) via a web
interface.

One of our clients is using a Grandstream GXP2000 with an attendant
console. We have used the same phone with past clients successfully
however this particular operator processes around 200 calls a hours and
the GXP2000 for sure does not like the quick line shuffling and call
volume. We get the following problems randomly:
1. menu stops working
2. transfer key stops working
3. Line 1 LED gets stuck
4. Voice 'gaps' (blackouts) for 4-5 seconds
5. The phone also completely locks up regularly
6. ping response goes from 8ms to 3000ms (after which the phone locks
up)
Wondering which operator phone would work best. I have the following
choices:
1. Linksys SPA 932/962 with attendant console
2. Polycom 601/650 with attendant console
I cant confirm online whether the BLF functionality will work with
Asterisk 1.2.26. Is somebody using either of these phones in a high
volume environment successfully?
Thank you.
