Any good experiences? Sadly only bad experience here. When we first moved to CUCM from an isdx 8 years ago our users where generally unhappy with the lack of DECT product from Cisco. We tried putting PSTN DECT basestations on ATAs but found those to be very unreliable. Cisco’s wifi handsets are prohibitively expensive and, last time we looked, had poor battery life and required per device certificates to get on our 802.1x wifi. We tried out the Cisco SMB offering, the SPA232D DECT/SIP bridge and handsets. They were able to register as “advanced SIP devices” in callmanager but we found them to be quite unreliable, the handsets were fragile and broke often, and Cisco eventually discontinued them. I’m aware of enterprise DECT/SIP gateways such as Aastra (which now appears to have been bought by Mitel) and we looked into this, but the initial investment to install was deemed to high for our site as user density in any one place wouldn’t justify the cost. I’m now recommending users make use of remote destination with their work mobiles. It’s a bit more management over head for me, but it’s the best we’ve been able to offer. I keep asking Cisco for cucm compatible DECT product but it seems they’re not interested. --- /-Gary Parker----------------------------------f--\ | Unified Communications Service Manager | n Loughborough University, IT Services | | tel:+441509635635<tel:%2B441509635635> sip:g...@lboro.ac.uk<mailto:sip%3ag...@lboro.ac.uk> o | https://www.osx.ninja/pubkey.txt | \r----------------------------------------------d-/ _______________________________________________ cisco-voip mailing list cisco-voip@puck.nether.net<mailto:cisco-voip@puck.nether.net> https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip _______________________________________________ cisco-voip mailing list cisco-voip@puck.nether.net<mailto:cisco-voip@puck.nether.net> https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip
