Re: Cordless phones over your wireless network

"smaye" <smaye@xxxxxxxxx> hath wroth:

I work in a manufacturing plant that uses cordless phones to
communicate. These are older models that are not made anymore and all
testing to date shows nothing is able to replace the range inside these
steel walled buildings.

Question- Our facility has wireless access points all over the place
for wireless networking of our computer equipment. Is there a phone or
phone system that can communicate directly with these access points,
the signal go to the router, and somehow extracted/converted to go to
our Avaya Definity switch?

You could go the Avaya route:
What is the difference between IP Telephony and VoIP?

http://www.avaya.com/gcm/master-usa/en-us/tasks/learn/facts/iptelephony/qa1/iptelephony.htm
but that seems to be proprietary.

If maintaining the existing switch is a requirement, then you're stuck
with their scheme and products. Reading between the acronyms, it
appears to be an ordinary SIP phone. You might wanna just try an
802.11 SIP phone and see if it can be configured and used.

However, if you get a non-proprietary phone system, such as those that
are Asterisk based:

and use anyone's wireless VoIP phones such as the almost just
released:

you're not stuck with a proprietary solution.
