9600 phones on Hosted PBX?

[RITEL]

Can anyone tell me if the Avaya 9600 series phones can be used for a 3rd party SIP PBX such as an Asterisk PBX, or Hosted PBX?

Thanks.

I think you can when you put them on SIP firmware but why would you want to do that?

BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

It is like driving a Veyron with a 1.2 liter diesel engine

1.2 diesel is probably better for you than your motorbike, less damage to your body

Give a tech a solution and he will be back tomorrow to ask you the next question, teach a tech how to read the manual and he will be able to solve the problems for a life time.

Well I will admit, I have a 9630G working on a non Avaya SIP platform. It's from a hosted provider called VOIP.MS.

The ring tones, call quality, cool looking phone design and some features make it great, BUT I do not have access to the ton of cool features that an Avaya platform would offer.

It operates like a basic digital phone, you can transfer, conference, park, page, pickup, and forward, but you cannot use advanced Avaya features such as presence or Rich Ring tones. You also cannot program buttons, nor use a MWI light for messages unless connected to an Avaya server.

If you are looking for a good SIP phone to use on Asterisk, I'd suggest the a Cisco 79xx or Nortel 11xx/12xx SIP set.

I believe Aastra still makes those Centrex beasts M5316 sets too.......and the M9000 and M8000 series too. You are right, they have quite a few Nortelesque looking IP sets on their website.
