I'm wondering if anyone installed a BCM 400 or BCM 50 R2 with sip trunks and what were the results. The documentation only mentions the sip trunks as networks between 2 BCM or a BCM & CS1000, nothing mention about sip trunks from a Sip provider to the BCM and even if its pssible.Any feedback will be appreciated, Thanks in advance.
 
SIP trunks between Nortel units work. SIP trunks to providers do not unless the provider has some sort of CPE that converts to PRI.
 
I wouldn't try SIP from a BCM to a non-Nortel endpoint until BCM 50 Release 3. The main reason is DTMF transmission from the BCM accross the SIP trunk.

A large effort was made in R3 to test and resolve interoperability issues with some major US carriers.

In M50 R3 there should be no DTMF transport issues as RFC2833 will be supported.
