I'm very familiar with wifi and roaming and handing off to other access 
points, but have never even seen a BlueTooth repeater.  I didn't even 
know there was such a thing and I asked this friend of mine if he was 
sure it was bluetooth and not WiFi.  He said he was positive it was 
bluetooth because the demo unit used the same motorola headset he uses 
with his cell phone and the company doing the demo even showed him how 
to set up the system where his headset could be linked to both his cell 
phone and the PBX at the same time.  I really don't know how practical 
the system is but it's way up there on the "cool factor" scale.

Yes wifi and N95 can be a solution, but DECT and again DECT.

Asterisk supports using bluetooth headsets as FXS devices using chan_mobile. 
But that scenario with repeaters I never seen before. Actually I wonder how 
reliable it is, since bluetooth is not the preferred technology on wireless 
data transmission.

What I did implement successfully was a solution with WiFi using 3Com WX2200 
Wireless Controller, Linksys WIP300 and Nokia N95 phones. The WX2200 takes care 
of all the roaming seamlessly, so when a user is moving during a call and gets 
out of reach of one access point, another one takes over without interrupting 
the call.

For smaller setups there is 3Com WXR100 that supports up to 3 MAPs (Managed 
Access Points).

[asterisk-users] Asterisk & Bluetooth

2008-05-05 Thread Brent Davidson
A friend of mine recently told me about a phone system his office was 
considering that did not use any handsets.  Instead of a phone, each 
person was issued a BlueTooth headset and several bluetooth repeaters 
were installed throughout the building.  When a call came in, it would 
be routed to the BlueTooth headset of the person being called.  All 
outgoing calls were done via voice-dial.

Apart from the voice-dial part, would there be a way to implement a 
system like this using Asterisk?  I know the voice-dialing would require 
some sort of speech recognition and I'm familiar enough with that to 
know how to implement it, but I'm not really familiar with how one would 
interface a direct BlueTooth interface to Asterisk.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk, Bluetooth, and wireless phone

2006-12-13 Thread Doug Crompton
With most of the new wireless phones now Bluetooth is anyone interfacing
(pairing) them to Asterisk? It would be nice to just plop the phone down
near the computer and have home phone access to it. I would be interested
in hardware that might be used for this? I have a Bluetooth phone but not
an interface for the computer.
