| Great SIP phone if you know how to set up and use one. |
this is a fully featured and complex (like in really pretty complex) SIP phone with 6 lines. YOU CANNOT USE THIS PHONE WITH A REGULAR PHONE LINE! it only has 2 ethernet ports that connect it to your network, thats it. in order to use this you really need to understand VOIP or have exact. detailed instructions on how to configure it with a VOIP service provider like Broadvoice. but assuming you have the background needed its great, i currently have several VOIP services programmed in with DIDs, for example, one line is an austrian phone number that rings on my 962 here in north carolina. there are so many things you can do, but its not for the faint of heart. oh yes, and voip need good broadband with a decent upload speed. you need to figure about 100k per line, so if you have 3 conversations at the same times you would need at least 300Kbps upload. most people'd broadband have between 250 and 380kbps upload speed. a disadvantage of a SIP phone versus a sip adapter is that with the adapter you can hook up any regular phone (cordless, whatever), an answering machine and even patch it into your home phone wiring if needed. cant do any of that with a SIP phone. |
