In reply to my own e-mail, I've had a very quick and helpful response from IPDialog, as follows:
"The current model SipTone(TM) II phone supports POE using PowerDsine's capacitive detection method, not 802.3af. The SipTone(TM) II phones may be powered from a PowerDsine 60xx midspan power injector. A new phone model, the SipTone(TM) III model, will become available in June 2005, and that model will support 802.3af. Here is some preliminary information about the new model: http://www.ipdialog.com/others/ipDialogSipToneIIIFeatures.pdf http://www.ipdialog.com/others/ipDialogSipToneIIISpecs.pdf"; On Mon, 4 Apr 2005 21:05:47 +0100, George Gardiner wrote: > >�I've just purchased a Netgear FS108P switch which has PoE (802.3af >�standard) on 4 ports. �According to some websites the SipTone II >�supposedly is compliant with 802.3af - IPDialog just says that it >�supports power over ethernet. > >�Powerdsine list the SipTone II as 802.3af as well. > >�Can I get it to power up via just the ethernet cable - no way! >�Either my new Netgear switch is faulty or the SipTone II utilises >�another PoE standard (but not 802.3af). > >�Has anyone any experience of PoE and the SipTone II? > >�Regards, >�George > _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
