We're using asterisk in production at my place. We have about 45 users (33 snom 200 sip phones and the rest on soft phones). We're connected to the telco via a pri (23 useable channels) using the digium t1 card. We have another t1 card hooked to an adit 600 channel bank for analog services.
Internally, sip2sip calls, you can't hear any echo. Anything that heads
out over the pri is really pretty good. Unless you have cyborg ears,
you don't hear much, if any echo (at least the users haven't
complained).
Okay, good to know. Echo is my only real concern. Everything else is just sysadmin work, dealing with management, and training users, and I know how to handle those :-).
One thing that bites on the snom 200 is the speaker. It seems to be
very choppy sounding. Someone here seems to think the VOX chip is junk,
but I really don't know what the deal is.
Okay. I like my 7940 at home, but the Polycom phones look like a really good buy. They're a bit more expensive then the snom, but we don't need very many of them right now, so I doubt it's a big problem.
We've plugged in our normal (analog) conference phone via the channel bank and it kicks butt. The adit 600 is a good device. We can send/receive faxes (the standalone modems seem to be ok as well, though I haven't seen at what rate their connecting at, we only use 'em for payroll and the postage machine so pry 9600).
Good to know. I haven't counted up FXS ports yet to know what we're going to need; we *might* be able to get by with just a TDM400.
The PoE seems to work flawlessly (we're using the powerdsine 24 port midspans).
Out of 33 snom phones, 1 couldn't use PoE (external ps works), 1 worked,
but the internal ps seemed to give out, now it won't power on at all, 1
spontanously reboots, and 1 seems to have a problem with it's on hook
button.
Sounds like our last batch of Dell servers...
Watchout who you buy them from, as the company we ordered from is a
disgrace, getting these rma'ed is a total pain (still not done). I
would almost suggest setting yourself up as a reseller and buy directly
from the closest distributer (I don't know if they charge a fee or not).
Thanks.
