[asterisk-users] Looking for SIP loud ringer

[Mike]

Actually the Polycom 501 are a bit louder, but at max settings they sound
like they are going to blow up, and it would be barely sufficient.  But you
are right about the 501.

 

The more modern Polycom line of product can't be cranked up as much (at
least I haven't succeeded).

 

An ATA device with a conventional loud ringer is probably what I need, I'll
try that.

 

Thanks for the ideas.  I`m surprised a SIP loud ringer doesn't exist (but if
it did it would probably cost over 400$, *sigh*)

What kind on polycom’s are you using?  I’ve got 501’s and they are quite
loud on the max setting.  Also, you could “radio shack” a headset to be an
even louder speaker.

Danny,

 

Thanks for the idea, I thought of it but I was looking for a more elegant
solution, and one that would as much as possible not require my intervention
in any way. A PC requires support even in the best of times: it`s got
harddrives, software, patches, etc, etc


 

An alternative would be a SIP phone with a very loud max ring, but that`s
not the case with the phones I know (Polycoms)

Why don’t you put a PC in the storeroom with a softphone to be the “loud
ringer”?   You could make the ring though the speakers be as loud as the
system would support.

Hi,

 

I have a customer with a definitely low-tech need: he has a noisy storeroom
where he wants to hear the phones ringing so he can leave the storeroom and
pick up the phone in his office.  So all I need is a loud SIP ringer.

 

Does this even exist? I know paging amplifiers exist, but that`s not what I
need.

 

Mike
