ABP Featured Solution Newsletter : Linksys Edition - August 2006

Update on all Linksys Equipment - Check it Out!

IP Phones for VARs and ITSPs

The SPA-941 is replacing the SPA-841 which has reached end of life. Since May 2005 when Sipura Technology was acquired by Linksys there has been continuous development of enhanced technology which has led to newer products - for example, the SPA901, SPA921, SPA922, SPA941, and the SPA942.  These models provide a higher level of functionality than the old SPA841 and other [untested] SIP compliant IP Phones.

The SPA841 does not have the same feature functionality like auto-discovery, self-configuration, line-sharing, remote management and provisioning like the SPA9xx IP Phones do. And, the SPA841 is not part of the new Linksys Voice System. Any orders for SPA 841 will be filled with one of the SPA9xx IP Phones.

Terminal Adapaters - 1 or 2 ports

Linksys is morphing their product line with a number of new and exciting advances in ATAs and other products. Not only have these ATAs improved (ie. substituting 10/100 for 10baseT ports), but there are better support materials, data sheets and colorful packaging along with embossed cases with a quality look and feel. All current orders will be filled with the new products listed below as certain items have reached their end of life. Selecting one of these recently announced products will insure you can continue to order a long life product. You will maintain consistency in your network while easing any support requirements for multiple solutions. Call for pricing or get in queue for the first available products.

• Interoperability testing by several ISPs indicate no difference in functionality for the PAP2T-NA  
• Pricing for the PAP2T-NA is the same and possibly lower for volume purchases than current pricing for the either the PAP2 or SPA-2002. Call for quotes.
• New user friendly CD installation guide.
