4 numbers, 4 voice mail, on VOIP ?? |
|
|
Can something like this be done, cheaply. What would be the best way, is
there a nice SIP phone that could handle something like this?
1. Ability to have 4 phone #'s come into a single phone.
2. Have capability for the operator to know which phone number is ringing
prior to picking up.
3. Separate voice mail box for each #.
Thanks. |

I don't know of any that offer four. However, SunRocket offers two
that ring into the same phone. They can be assigned different area
codes if need be. |

The Sipura 3000 ATA can be expanded to handle four lines.
Voicemail is up to the VoIP service provider.
Alternatively you need Asterisk software on Linux server with FXS / FXO
phone ports.

The Fritz!Box Fon from AVM (www.avm.de/en) has 2 phone ports but has
capacity for up to 10 SIP accounts, you can tell it to ring any phone for
any account, but I don't know of a way to tell which account is ringing if
you have more than 3. I have a/c 1 ringing phone 1, a/c 2 ringing phone 2
and a/c 3 ringing them both together.

Sure.
Sipura SPA841 ip-phone can be upgraded to handle 4 lines (as standard 2) -
or if you find one with old firmware if can easily be made to handle four
without unlocking it ;-) - my two devices does it!

No problem

All my provideres provides the voicemail on the server. That way you don't
have to think about loosing power etc on your phone.
IMHO a much better solution. |

With asterisk and a provider like sixtel (www.iax.cc) you can do it.
They have tons of numbers to choose from including toll free.
I use them myself, support is pretty good too.

But Asterisk requires a PC to be on all the time, which a lot of people,
myself included, don't want. I prefer a dedicated hardware box.

With the device you need a provider that runs software+hardware to support
it, with asterisk you can maintain it yourself and not have to wait for
someone else to do it.
I don't see the problem with leaving a computer on 24/7, my asterisk machine
never crashes or needs restarting, it runs on a server dedicated to
asterisk.
