Remote office Polycom conference ip phone? 4

[TheDoz]

Hi all,
What model of conf phone do I need? if SIP phone, do I need a SIP provider for this to work? Has anyone set one of these up? Phone system ip500, 4.2 (20). Ip phones (4610 and 4621) are at the remote office already tied with Data t1 between sites. Thanks for any help.

I am pretty sure you will need to upgrade to R6 to get this working. then you need a 3rd party endpoint license. Then there are a bunch of SIP phones you can use.

What do you mean by "Remote office..."?

You want to have a Polycom conference phone at a remote location?

Dont think it is possible.

If you just want to use the Polycom SIP conference phone (IP7000?) then, yes, that works fine, but not remotely.

Thanks for the replies. I am hoping that the Soundstation ip6000 conference phone will work in a location out of state. We already have 10 ip phones working at the remote location via T1 connection. The question is will an Soundstation ip6000 work their also? I know I will have to upgrade the Main site to 5.0 and buy a SIP/ip end point license. Anyone know for sure this will work at the remote location? Thanks

What is the connection between the 2 sites? Point to point, hardware vpn?

Or do the phones have VPN remote software?

Indeed, as long as the data link routes local traffic effectivly it should work no problem as the link should be transparent as far as the Polycom is concerned it's just another hop
