Snom M9 vs Siemens Gigaset A510

[Gambit]

The snoms might not be able to do call hand overs from base to base but AFAIK they do support using DECT repeaters.

The M3 supports repeaters the M9 does not.

Thanks. Did not know that.

I see snom sell a M9R handset that supports DECT repeaters.

Ah ok, new feature for the M9R. Good to know.

I see that the Grandstream DP715 is a similar price to the Gigaset. Does anyone have any experience with the Grandstreams?

I have a SNOM 300 on my desk and I've previously played with the SNOM M3 and I just can't understand why the build qualities are so different. Is the SNOM M9(R) an improvement over the M3?

If you want an exceptional build quality, and very good DECT solution for IP take a look at the I-Serv products. Single base station supports 30 handsets registered to it, with 10 simultaneous calls happening. Also supports multiple base stations, and repeaters.

With that feature set you would imagine the pricing being out of the ball park, you'd be wrong pricing is very good.

AFAIK the M3 was either outsourced or something they bought over.

I played with Grandstream corded handsets about 4-5 years ago and they were junk. Can't speak for current models.

Best DECT I've seen so far for business use has been Kirk Polycom, which unfortunately comes at a price.

Yes it can. If your DTMF is set correctly you can use asterisk transfers.

Hi Morkhans

I am sitting with the problem that I can not transfer from one handset to another on the same base unit.

Setup as follows
AsteriskNOW 2.0.2
Gigaset A510IP Base
5 Handsets

What do the DTMF setting need to be ?

[morkhans]

DTMF needs to be set to RFC 2833 which should match on the Asterisk side.
