Hi folks,<br><br>We're looking for wifi SIP phones to use with our Asterisk PBX in a<br>manufacturing environment. We are presently using the Hitachi ones.<br>While they are fine for office use, they are not rugged enough for
<br>factory use.<br><br>Does anyone have suggestions on phones that are rugged enough to use<br>in a factory?<br><br>And equally important, can they be provisioned in bulk via Linux?<br><br>Most of the SIP phones I've used, both wired and wireless, can be
<br>configured to download provisioning information via plain text or XML<br>files stored on an FTP, TFTP, or HTTP server. The one rugged wifi<br>SIP phone I've seen so far "maybe" can do that according to the
<br>salespeople, but they really are trying to push me into some Windows<br>dock provisioning thingy. Ugh.<br><br>-- John<br><a href="http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz" target="_blank"></a></blockquote>
<div><br>Any reason you are not looking at DECT phones instead of WiFi?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Steve Totaro <br></div></div><br>
