[Asterisk-Users] Kirk SIP-DECT gateway

[Remco Barende]

Thanks, the price looks attractive but what about Asterisk support?

>From your website : "All standard Windows operating systems are 
supported." and we are not using Windoze :)

How many concurrent conversations are supported?

Is there a howto anywhere how this could be used with * ?

By looking at the website of the manufacturer this product isn't really 
comparable with the IP600 which has support for 8 simultaneous calls and 
can be used with repeaters to extend it's range.

For small SOHO setups it would be quite nice however.

Cheers!
Remco
