<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> [Asterisk-Users] Intercom system
(not paging system)</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>I've looked around and found previous discussion about this,
but so far I have not seen any answers that really solve this
problem.<BR><BR>I'd like to integrate an intercom system into Asterisk so that
users could dial an extension, the phone on the other end would emit a beep,
and then the speakerphone would activate letting two people have a
conversation without the person at the extension picking up the phone.
This is a huge benefit for an office/warehouse environment.<BR><BR>I know that
this can be programmed with certain Cisco phones (set to autoanswer), but my
problem is that the phones that I want to do this with are down in our
warehouse and I think the Cisco phones would be stolen quickly. I've also
thought about a writing a software solution with microphone and a set of
speakers, but, again, the computers would probably end up getting
stolen.<BR><BR>A $20 analog speaker phone would work great if I could wire the
speaker phone to pick up the line automatically on ring and then hang up the
line on disconnect. Anyone know how to change the wiring to get it to
work?<BR><BR>
