Kristan Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Has anyone hooked one up to their PBXnSIP install? I've got a customer asking if it's possible and I've found some devices which say they're SIP compliant door entry phone/door release devices, but they're rather pricey if they don't work. Has anyone got experience in this? Or maybe using other traditional PBX based entry phones and ATA's? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewgroup Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yes, they are simply pricey. These devices traditionally are simply a FXO device attached to an FXS port on a traditional PBX as an extension. The push button on the door entry is pre-programmed to dial an extension or page group, the internal person that answers the phone, then enters the access code and internally the door entry closes a contact set and Voila'. Access control installers commonly install a remote button across those those contacts too. Some have to integrate MAG-LOCKS on that same door. FYI, these are just as pricey in the TDM world, so don't feel bad about this.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
