"Go-To" rock solid Conference phone?

[dlc.darren]

Hello. We are relatively new to 3CX. Does anyone know which conference phone is the "Go-To" model that works almost always, and supports an SBC?
From looking at the compatibility list it appears that none of the recommended phones support SBC... is that correct? (or did I miss one)

I have a couple of Polycom 6000's deployed using an SBC with a custom config I wrote. While they work pretty well, we do get occassional 'clicking' noises on certain calls that I have yet to fully identify.

What is everyone else using as their preferred conference phone? I have a meeting with a prospect on Wednesday and want to deliver them a bulletproof solution.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

PS: For customers with a web-enabled conference room, I'm running the client on a mac and using a Huddlepod Air. That works really well, but it isn't for everyone.

Problem is, if you ask 20 people their opinion on sets, you can get 20 different answers, and reasons for those. If being compatible with an SBC is important, then that may well limit your options. If you are familiar with Polycoms already, you may want to work on tracking down the clicking noise. If it weren't for that, you might very well be recommending that set to others.

The Yealink conference phones are on the supported list and support connectivity via SBC:

Doh! Thank you! I read that Yealink page twice and didnt see the SBC section. Must need stronger glasses. My eyes kept falling to the STUN section. I'll look into the Yealink.

you don't need stronger glasses there's no SBC section

I also like the reliability of the Yealink conference phones. Never have an issue with them over SBC or even STUN. We have one user that constantly disconnects/reconnects their CP920 due to not liking the way the network cable is ran (and won't pay for a new drop) and every week when they need it, they just plug it in and it works.

We use the CP960, we love how easy it is adding people to conference calls, it will do connect 5 calls up with an easy to use touch screen. the remote wireless mics are a plus too.

Thanks Jasit.
Where do you typically source the CP960's? I'm not a Yealink partner or anything... should I be?

 

[jasit]

we picked it up on amazon, came with the two wireless mics

@dlc.darren I'd reach out to 888VoIP. I'll PM you my contact there. A lot of the Yealink products online are not sold through authorized channels. 888VoIP is an authorized distributor.

It is not on the list,

Thumbs up for the Yealink CP930W (wireless dect conference phone)

You configure the device thru FXS / Dect as it uses the W60B base unit.

Just make sure you purchase the complete kit - CP930W and W60B - unless you already have the W60b
