I wonder why more vendors haven't adopted IAX yet?

I expect that before major players adopt this protocol it'd need to be
confirmed as a standard by some form of international body. That was
underway, but lacking anyone to push the process along.

I would've thought that Digium would be the most likely lead proponent,
but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Actually, Digium has been quite active in helping to try to get the IAX
protocol adopted as a standard. See
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-guy-iax-04.txt for the latest draft of
the protocol specification as submitted to the IETF.

Please note that the IAX draft is just an informational RFC, not
anything that goes any IETF standards track or is endorsed by
the IETF.

There are many vendor-related protocols documented like that.

I really like these Snom 300 phones as far as audio quality goes. I
wish they had a few more programmable buttons but that was a
purchasing oversight. We underestimated the number of programmable
buttons we would need and opted for the 300 instead of the 360.
When I pushed some vendors for prices there was only a tiny gap between
the 300 and 360. Would suggest looking hard at the 360 always...

Interesting... here in the UK the price difference between the 300 and 360 is pretty huge. Either you're getting some stunningly good pricing on 360s or some abysmal pricing on the 300s Smile

Probably the IP601:

and 57i:

Snom 360:

http://www.voipon.co.uk/snom-360-ip-telephone-p-31.html

They all have the 12 keys.

I have consulted on so many systems with poor audio, the first thing I
check is IAX or SIP. If IAX, I move over to SIP and the calls are
prefect.

I avoid IAX at all costs, use OpenVPN, open tons of ports on your
firewall, whatever you can do to use SIP. The only time I will use
IAX is if in some remote backwards part of the world, they have
several NATs so it is impossible to control.

Even www.iax.cc recommends using SIP. Overhead is of little concern
with MPLS and big pipes.

Thanks,

I would be interested to hear if you have had any of these problems with
the latest 1.4 versions of Asterisk. A _lot_ of work has gone into IAX2
support in Asterisk 1.4, and specifically, the most recent 25% of the
1.4 series or so.
