Subject: [asterisk-users] Paging unit suggestions

 

We currently have an Asterisk system that is hooked up to our old paging 
speakers via sound card, plugged into two amps.

 

Each amp drives up to 8 analog speakers in each warehouse (we have 2).  Both 
warehouses are around 30k square feet.  Both have a large number of printing 
presses.

 

The computer system is that is running Asterisk is around 10 years old and 
starting to fail.  I'm looking to replace both the system and hopefully move to 
a IP paging system, but wanted to reuse the current speakers.

 

I'm looking for suggestions on a IP based amp or similar that could drive the 
current speakers?  I was envisioning a unit that would register as a SIP 
extension then would handle auto-answer that I could send a sound file to.

 

Thanks for any help!

 

Doug

 

This may be insane, but it seems from what I read that you could replace most 
10 year old boxes with a $35 Raspberry Pi.  That not being the case, the 
speakers could probably be adapted to work off of any SIP phone headset/handset.
