[Asterisk-Users] Static problems with Asterisk + Polycom phones

[Roman Volf]

Hey all,

I'm having problems where there is significant static when making SIP -> 
PSTN calls. SIP -> SIP and SIP -> VM calls are totally clear and fine.

Here's the setup:

Polycom 601,501, and ten 301s.
Digum 2400 TDM card w/echo cancelling, 12 FXO ports.
The TDM card is on IRQ 5 with nothing else on it.

Server Specs:
Asus P4P800E Deluxe
P4 3.0 Ghz
1 GB Ram
80 GB SATA HD

- There is no static when using a normal phone direct to the 66 block.
- The sound is also a bit low, and bumping the volume on the Polycom 
phones makes the static alot worse (obviously)
