Hi I have had great success using Yealink phones with Freeswitch and a customer has asked me for a cordless phone for their office. I want to ensure that they can keep as much functionality with a cordless phone as they have with the Yealink T28. I am looking at the Siemens C610IP phone but don't know how well it plays with Freeswitch. Can someone please shed some light on the Siemens phone or any alternative that you have successfully implemented. Thanks in advance
Hello, I have been using the Gigaset S675IP and the A580IP with good success. They do G.722, can handle SIP SRV records, and the BLFs work (more than I can say for the Aastra MBU400). They are also very inexpensive and sound great! They only caveats: SIP passwords have to be fairly short No easy provisioning mechanism. Other than that, they work great. Not all models can transfer though - I believe the S675 can. I haven't played with the C610 Good luck! -Tim ocset wrote:

We are using Snom M9 - while i can imagine much more functionality(Better phonebook, better haptics), the big plus is that it's possible to provision them with XML via tftp - and they are pretty cheap! Snom M3 sucked though - unstable and unsolid update-mechanism(Bricked after i pressed the reset button while it tried to contact the snom-update-server, which it could not reach as there was no internet-connection). Regards, Christian
In some respects the Snom M9 is a step backwards from the M3 tho'. Lack of decent royalty free codec support for one (the M3 had iLBC). It also seems you need to edit the settings file (rather than use the GUI) to be able to clamp down the RTP port range. Still, I agree that for the currently available phones it tops the list, especially given its in-built PCAP logging, even settable from next from boot-up. -- View this message in context: http://freeswitch-users.2379917.n2.nabble.com/Cordless-IP-Phone-tp7191414p72...

Since when Siemens A580IP can honour SRV? That's my biggest remark for it. On Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 4:25 AM, Tim St. Pierre < fs-list@communicatefreely.net> wrote:

From my experience the Panasonic cordless can completely replace a traditional analog cordless and the user will never know the difference.
The base unit is OpenBSD and apart from some challenging docs they are fire and forget and look and feel like normal phones which oddly is a challenge to find. I have both aastra and snom and they have fallen into disuse because they are flimsy and unnatural. On Jan 21, 2012 8:37 AM, "Brian West" <brian@freeswitch.org> wrote:

I'm using a quite old Gigaset C450IP with FreeSWITCH, works great, including callerid and call transfers. I still get firmware update notifications from time to time, so i'm happy with long term support. The Gigaset web ui doesn't have too many options and settings like Polycom and Snom stuff, but all the basics are there. We also use a bunch of Gigaset C610IPs with Asterisk and right now a N510IP Pro DECT base is sitting on my desk for evaluation. The pro DECT base can handle 6 handsets each with a different SIP account and 4 simultaneous calls. Voice quality and usability are superb - from a european perspective, that's mostly because the phones have a 'R'-key for consultation calls and can do transfer-on-hangup. Automated provisioining is possible as well, although you have to nag Gigset about the specs. Hopefully they'll open up more, some technical details at http://wiki.gigaset.com/ look like a good start. We had user acceptance problems using Snom m3 at a customer and anticipate better results rolling out Gigaset handsets, partly because almost every german with a landline is using a Gigaset phone at home (seriously!). The Gigaset division was split from Siemens and now the company is called Gigaset. If you need support for more handsets and multi cell setup with handover in call, have a look at Aastra's stuff. Setup is pretty straightforward as well, but also much more expensive.
Not what you are looking for but we were looking for a good one as well and wound up.... using our iPad with SipPhone, works perfectly with FS. We stopped looking for SIP phones and use the iPhones/iPads with SipPhone, (there are other clients). On Jan 20, 2012, at 1:45 AM, Markus Lindenberg wrote:
