Thank you for the detailed description Andy. Please let me know how about the specs when you can.
My client has legacy 7610 but I am trying to suggest swithcing to native sip phones like grandstream or better in order to make everything 100% asterisk compliant. Plus, Cisco charging for the sip images and such ($150) doesn’t look good, for that price you can get some SIP phones. |-----Original Message----- |From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of |Andy Hamilton |Sent: Sábado, 30 de Abril de 2005 01:00 p.m. |To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion |Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960s and skinny | |Anton: | |I'll be able to get back to you Sunday night about specifics; |the phone is not where I am right now. Using chan_sccp, (I |think November |2004 or so CVS Head) I know I can receive calls, place calls, |etc. It is a rather low volume phone, so I don't know off hand |about specific keys; I'll check those later. |Additionally, I have not yet tried a new copy from CVS. | |Occasionally, I think the chan_sccp driver blips out in |Asterisk (it may be the phone; I've had it apart several times |because the on/off hook switch membrane is a little sketchy). |I have dealt with this by restarting Asterisk. The only other |thing I can say right now about the 7910 is that it and my |Cisco FastHub don't get along. At all. I have the 7910 plugged |into my 7960. | |Overall, I would say that if you have a non-critical system |and would like to use a 7910, chan_sccp should be able to |handle it fine. |However, if you budget permits, the 7960 and 7940 phones are |quite nice (use SIP with those -- it's far more reliable. I |must say, though, that my 7960 has frozen/crashed a handful of |time when running the SIP image. That was the phone itself, |Asterisk was fine.) I have yet to purchase a 7905 or 7912, but |I've played around with some 7912's on a CCM system -- they |seem quite nice and I think they take SIP. The 7920 is also |nice because it's wireless. However, I don't think Cisco has |anything but a Skinny image for it [yet]. | |I would stick with SIP wherever you can. | |-Andy | | | |On 4/30/05, Anton Krall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: |> Andy |> |> How did the 7910 worked with skinny under *?
