Conference Phones

[pdulfo]

I use the polyspan conf' phone (digital). Does anybody know if there is a dect or some other wireless version of the conf' phone.

Reason. We have the one phone and multiple places to use it, so regular re-patching.

may be best to use multi tn's with the same mcr dn, in that manner any conf room would have access without a repatch.

And the I just have to re-enable the TN that gets disabled in the midnight routines. (just put it back in to help find the slack)

Also some of the conf rooms only have one RJ45 so we have to patch back and forth for data & voice.(dont ask why, we continually ask that question).

analog phones do not disable at midnight, the poly was an analog as of about a year ago. you just need mcra in the class for analog stations. i wish analog did disu at midnight, i would get back hundreds of tn's

lucky you, wire tn's to each jack, then do a move for each different loc. disu 20 0 0 0 mov ..put them all on one card and mov the software back and forth.. eaiser then running all over the place to patch panels...i usually can think of the lazy way to make it work

Polycom has just come out with a cordless SoundStation (called the SoundStation 2W). We just got one for our executive suite... they can use it in any of the offices or conference rooms and they LOVE it! It's got 150 foot range from the base station. The web address is

Plus, you can plug a cell phone into the phone (not the base) using the cell phone's headset jack to use the Polycom when you don't have POTS or during a power outage.

Hope that helps!

pdulfo,

we had the same problem woith only 1 rj45 jack in each room,

we devised our own splitter box at each end so we could run voice and data down the same cable.

As you only need 2pr for data and 1 pr for voice and you get 4prs in a cat 5 cable....

I think it's as follows oranges, green for data then the blue for voice.

try it and let us know.



It's not getting any smarter out there. You have to come to terms with stupidity, and make it work for you.

we use the same splitter her mickeyb, ehternet uses 123 and 6 voice uses pins 4 and 5.. works like a champ, we have perm phones for our conf rooms but have some supply and power plant phnones that are set up as analog mcrs so they cna be shared without having party lines... most stations are perm but others are at decatiated areas that are only maned during certain times, the users moves his analog but it remains the same number
