[Asterisk-Users] Polycon IP 300 SIP vs Grandstream BT-101 Deployment

[Ty Purcell]

Stuart,

I have 3 of the Polycom IP 300 SIP's.  The first two I bought were not sip and I had to load the SIP firmware and application on them.  That was somewhat involved, but not too difficult.  The third phone I bought with SIP on it.
I plugged it in, configured it, and it works great.  I really like the polycom phones.  They have a superb speakerphone.
(you can hear quiet whispers and people tapping pens on the desk.)

We are using them over point to point T1's - so far our voice quality is very good. I'm not sure how well it would sound over DSL.

I have mine configured to look at an FTP server to pull the config files from.  


Hope this helps.



Ty Purcell

Deployment


Hi,

I have just completed the deployment of a couple of Grandstream phones 
(for internal IP use) and was wondering how much harder it would be to 
deploy a Polycom IP 300 phone. The Grandstream was quite easy to deploy 
and gives us good voice quality over DSL, however from some of the 
previous posts I am see that some people had troubles with the Polycom 
300. The variant I am looking at purchasing is a SIP variant.

Any pointers / comments would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards
Stuart
