Network Switch for Voice over Wi-Fi setup

  • 1.  Network Switch for Voice over Wi-Fi setup

    Posted Aug 09, 2012 05:03 AM

    Hi,

     

    We are doing a Voice over Wi-Fi setup in our office, using IAP-105.

     

    The Voice over Wi-Fi would communicate with the IP-PBX, in the end via a Network Switch.

    So should we look for a Switch which handles Voice better (I am not sure if there is one!)? Or just any (Gigabit) Switch would be fine?

     

    Regards

    Yagyesh

    Given that you're already with Aruba on wifi side, I would conisder staying with Aruba on wired side. You will realize lots of future upside and integration potential.  Good luck.

    Good point I'd say...I am checking on the price. I am considering HP 5120 switches as they come with lifetime warranty and are cheaper than Cisco and other big players.

    in principle any newish switch would be fine, when you are working with ipt on a LAN then usually there shouldn't be anything limiting the setup, or you must be talking about many many users.

    No, the users are only about 35 in number. And there are 4 WAPs.
