RE: [asterisk-users] voice quality of Aastra 480i CT and cordless
Scott - I find the phone to be a great product, as it stands today with current firmware. I use it extensively for customer deployments, and everyone seems really pleased with the features and performance. We have hundreds of these in the field. I much prefer DECT to WIFI for client sites where a few users need basic in-office mobility.

Is voice quality comparable to standard consumer residential 2.4GHz cordless phones in the US$30 - $50 price range, or better/worse? How about handset and speakerphone quality for the main phone? Seems like there have been various big issues with firmware in past, but is it pretty stable now?

RE: [asterisk-users] voice quality of Aastra 480i CT and cordless
We have had good results mostly from this unit except for one issue that is currently being looked into by Aastra. The issue is if a second call comes in and the cordless answers then puts the call on hold audio drops one way on the handset. Aastra was able to reproduce this and is working on it. From time to time we get reports of bad feedback on the cordless unit but most of the time it is fine. Also the buttons on the cordless are easily mashed with a chubby face :-) Overall we are very pleased with the unit and the ability to have the cordless off of the handset is a great thing. I have not been able to find another unit that has this same feature.

Re: [asterisk-users] voice quality of Aastra 480i CT and cordless
Scott, I've used the phone for 9 months. It's a truly outstanding phone. The cordless handset sounds great. It is limited to two ongoing calls at one time, but that has not been an issue for me. The range on the cordless is comparable to the Panasonic KX-TG4000 KSU that I used to use and a Panasonic 5.8GHz corldess that I use via an ATA. The ability to sync the directory of the base and the handset makes the 480i CT much more convenient than the ATA/Cordless combination.

Aastra is a great phone for sound quality and other features. I didn't have any problems with it and didn't go back to Grandstream once installed Aastra. My only concern was some problem with its web UI bugs, but that will be eventually fixed. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
