New Uniquiti SIP Phones
-
@JaredBusch what do you mean? Everything I've seen from them including that picture supports the no PBX functionality theory. It doesn't deny the PBX functionality but nothing has suggested that it exists either.
The VoIP port is a VLAN with preconfigured QoS. They state that.

I am reading more now. Being out all day yesterday has put me too far behind on this.
-
We've been trying to get a handle on it to be ready for release day. I'm hoping to quickly get hands on with this gear.
-
Just read the PDF Quick start guide for the UniFi Security Gateway. That VoIP port is noted as disabled and reserved for future use.
-
That's very weird. They other material suggested that they were ready to use it as a VLAN to handle controlled QoS for the SIP traffic. I wonder if that document just has that like that because it is ahead of the SIP phones release?
-
I'm curious about it - but i don't have a PBX to plug it into... I have users in 9 counties and we are expanding one of our current offices... so this could be a really nice option to go with. Just wonder how it would fit..

@g.jacobse no phone is useful without a PBX. How are you functioning without a PBX today? Are you paying for a 1960s Key System from the phone company?
-
You could go with a hosted PBX or Asterisk
-
many of us here could set you up with a hosted, managed on site, or configured onsite unmanaged pbx if you're interested, hawla.
-
@thecreativeone91 which is what we would often recommend, but even an onsite PBX is better than nothing.

Uhm yea - about that,...We have a onsite Nortel NorStar system at the main office,.. but I'm pretty sure it is otherwise POTS.... as it 90% of all of our remote sites. It was this way when I started last year - but I fully plan to move us into the modern world...

Nortel made PBXs, long ago. That's just an old PBX.
POTS is the outside lines, doesn't refer to the inside ones. At a minimum that's almost certainly a digital (not IP) phone system. Pretty rough, though.
