Certainly, one can seem why the aesthetics seem grim. On the other hand, it's important to remember that hotels view phones strictly as a cost centre and a begrudgingly necessary regulatory obligation, except to the extent that they help drive revenue for things like room service. Otherwise, guests don't use them, and nobody seriously makes calls on their in-room phone. So, whereas a guest may balk at an antiquated-looking phone, a hotel will not unless they really see a lot of marketing and presentation value in them, which in my experience none do, especially not large hotels and/or chains. -- Alex Balashov | Principal | Evariste Systems LLC Tel: +1-706-510-6800 / +1-800-250-5920 (toll-free) Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.csrpswitch.com/ ___ VoiceOps mailing list VoiceOps@voiceops.org https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops
Re: [VoiceOps] Hotel Phone System
Colton, it was jazz fusion, which was the pms connector to broadcloud. The endpoints don’t really matter with that integration so much. They use a lot of vtechs in the hospitality industry because of the customization of the face plates. Also I think broad soft/Cisco sold off jazz fusion.

Re: [VoiceOps] Hotel Phone System
Matthew, I haven't thought or looked into that. I know when I was looking at Broadcloud instead of Broadworks, Broadcloud was showing off someone hotel option. However, putting analog phones in brand new hotel in 2019 feels very old school and dated. I am thinking SIP phones, but then need to be rock solid, cheap, and just work.

Re: [VoiceOps] Hotel Phone System
Have you thought about hanging Analog phones off a large ATA (Adtran TA5000) or a stack of Adtran TA924s? Buid a SIP trunk from Broadworks to the ATA and assign the TNs to the SIP trunk (Creating trunk users). You can then assign Broadworks services to the users (voicemail, etc). The SIP trunk user only uses up a license when it has an active call, you can overcommit your licenses that way Check out https://xchange.broadsoft.com/node/1034202 Section 4.4 covers licensing and the overcommit process.
