<div>Should be no problems at all. But keep in mind that you're getting what you pay for. There have been a few posts recently regarding issues with a Polycom 501 that turned out to be (partially) related to the networking equipment used. Make sure you get a good quality switch (and NOT a hub, as Brandon's pointed out), and you'll be fine.

<br><br>The Issue is this: He has 7 total data run lines running back to the<br>switch/phone room (small company).<br>However the want to add a total of 5 or more Phones. He doesn't want to foot<br>the cost of running more data lines along the middle of a large room all the
<br>way to the walls and then back to the phone room.<br><br>I was wondering if we could uplink small switches to the wall data ports to<br>the switch, and connect the additional SIP phones to them to get them<br>connectivity to Asterisk?
<br><br>As long as each phone has seperate IP, i'm not sure if there would be a<br>problem.<br><br>Anyone care to chime in to point out any pitfalls or potential problems with<br>this setup?<br><br>Thanks!<br><br><br><br>
