What VoIP protcol does the new BCM 4.0 use for the new 1100 series IP phones? I beleive previous BCM versions used H.323 for IP2000 series phones.
 
UNISTIM/H.323, same as the 2000 series phones.
 
Are there specific ethernet switches and routers to provide QoS for these phones?
In the past, I had bought a Nortel Contivity 221 router to provide QoS for an IP2004 phone, and after many hours of Nortel tech support, they told me it would not support QoS for Nortel IP phones running H323.
 
Nortel supports DIFFSERV in the BCM product which needs layer 2 and layer 3 switching to be effective. Any network that will support Weighted Fair Queuing and, (better yet) VLANs will be perfect for your VoIP phones.
