I'm just rolling out VoIP to pilot before we put in a new location. We're running on a CS1000e Rel 5.5. Our vendor spec'd us out 1220s as the phone of choice. These only have 10/100 ethernet, and we're wired for GigE. If we went with the 1220s we'd be committing to either using 2 switchports for every phone/computer combo, or cutting our local bandwith by a tenth.
What I'm wondering is, are the 1220s identical to the 1120s with the exception of the Ethernet port? I have found an alternate source for 1120 phones that will save me a fair bit off the $220 a set the vendor would have to charge me for the 1220s, but my concern is that I might lose some other features I'd need.
The new remote site would be running a brand new BCM 50. I just want to make sure that all these devices will function together, and that I'm not shooting myself in the foot trying keep these phones GigE.
