The Grandstream GXP-280 looks like a good phone to use with the portable PBX system I am working on now. It is a cost effective, but feature filled phone. The web site states that the phone with most 3rd party SIP devices, gateways and leading soft-switch platforms. This phone should preform very good for the HSMM PBX system.

128 x 32 pixel graphical LCD with support for multiple languages
1 line appearance with FLASH to handle up to 2 simultaneous calls
3 XML programmable context sensitive soft keys, 3 way conference

Hi Jim,
ReplyDeleteI install networks for small businesses in Kenya. I would like to get some hands on knowledge in IP telephony.
A friend has suggested we start by setting up a lab to get familiar. I will set up one point at home and the other at my workshop. Both points are on Internet.
Is the use of a Digium FXS/FXO Echo Cancellation TDM800P TDM8XM Rev A 8-Port Asterisk Card with the Grandstream GXP-280 phone going to work. If not care you in a position to recommend some equally low priced sets like Cisco phones that I see on eBay. I have a budget of about US $ 800.00 for the set up of my lab comprising of two Digium cards and two IP phones on each end. The PCs are already in place.
I would also appreciate some information on other models of telephones that have stand alone power supplies. Not POE.
Thanks
BEN

DeleteI am not far enough into this project to help very much. I am still learning and testing, so I do not have enough experience yet. I think you are heading in a good direction, there are a lot smarter people that can help. I am hoping to be better at VOIP in the future. Thanks for reading my Blog.
