[Asterisk-biz] SIP phones in an Enterprise

[Mark Phillips]

Many folks swear by the Cisco range of phones. They are relatively cheap 
at around US$280 each and can come in a variety of flavours.

The "standard" phone would be a 7960. The "executive" would be a 7980 
(its got a colour screen) and the "basic" would be a 7940.

I like them because they can be "branded" to your organisation. The 
large LCD display can have things like your corporate logo diplayed on 
it; management like all that crap.

You can also do things like add to the ringtone pool and add XML type 
web pages for local info like weather or the company stock price.

Try voipsupply.com (speak to Garret) for exact prices.
