[asterisk-users] cisco 7940 and auto-answer (aastra 480i vs 7940)

[Dave Bour]

The 9112 also doesn't have a ethernet bridge in it.  The cost of adding
a switch to a local office puts this unit nearly priced as a 9133 which
I deploy mostly.
As for the 480...I had that..upgraded to the 57i (CT now - the wireless
handset supporting one).  Love it.  Button feel a little different but
the big screen and programmable "toys" make it worth the
difference....not an average user set though.

I have no experience with the Cisco's, so I can't answer those
questions. However, I have deployed quite a few Aastras...

I have a 480i CT on my desk which I love. Specifically, I prefer the
angle that it sits up at on my desk when compared with the 9133i. I went
with 9133i's throughout the rest of the office, mostly due to cost. The
480i an the 9133i both have native Power over Ethernet - no external
dongles and such are needed - just patch the phone into your PoE switch
and you're ready to go. The 9112i is a much more basic phone - no
built-in PoE, less line appearances, and the screen doesn't have a tilt
adjustment like the 9133i does. All these Aastra phones do share a
common config file format though, which makes provisioning over TFTP...
pretty trivial (pardon the pun).
