synopsis
Create and/or implement a telephone communication system for fun and automation. It can provide conference rooms, reach key people from a central number, quickly notify if the space is closed and provide a quick and cheap way of communication.
Be aware that FS has a very steep learning curve, but once you get the point, you'll never want to go back (hint: regular expressions ftw)
My (Xopr) personal interest is pulling the all types of communication into a central point and thereby link them.
implementation
Current setup consists of the following:
- a public accessible number (+31 45 71 12345)
- permanent space phone's (two Cisco 7940 (ext. 1000 and 1001)
- several ATA's (not permanently connected, yet)
- Customized dialplan
- simple IVR menu (with space state notification built-in)
- conference rooms (1331)
- central point for reaching key people (1333)
- simple intercom service
- number lookup script
- various participant registrations (see #extensions)
- some scripting to ease life and add some nifty features
For details on the Cisco phones, see Cisco phone deployment.

history
CCC
The CCC Binary Voice Radio telephony server was a mixed success. Actually, it was a disaster: -The visual ring indicator circuit didn't trigger the optocouplers so that was the first thing to fail. -a lot of power failures which caused a lot of downtime and eventually database corruption -the DECT system was getting too complex for the simple phones we've modded for field reporting (Technical clarification came from one of the Eventphone key people who explained that the antenna register on cheap phones was too small to identify them all). Besides that, it looked like the cabling had short-circuited because the 9v battery didn't have any oomph left to generate amplified audio. -wifi had a hard time maintaining the links and coverage wasn't 100% so the wifi field reporter wasn't a good alternative -last but not least: the public ip addressing threw a spanner in the works and the server went limbo. The server's database went corrupt, and after a restore, it didn't match the regular config files. I got it semi-working after it was far too late to make it useful to the studio. Also, after I got it to work, it wouldn't register correctly to the Eventphone trunk and we only got to call the editorial room (2781|BVR1) via DECT twice or so. Despite all that stress, it was promising, so better luck next time.
Open door day
For the open day, I set up a stand-alone test system with two Cisco 7940s, a FxS/FxO and dual FxS ATA, which included some softclients.
The phones were successful in a rough field test on the open day, connected to a FreeSWITCH exchange and two ATAs which provided connections to two additional analog handsets. The field test proved reliable enough and a great platform for some hilarious phone pranks.
The Cisco phones had a menu where you could view a 2 bit grayscale snapshot of the two space cams, and you were able to switch some outlets. People were allowed to navigate the configs and exploit functionality and LuckY sniffed and replayed audio over a wifi link.
future
- Move the current setup to the SAN server and release the current setup as a ACKspace FS playground.
- Create a larger deployment of the VOIP network as a testing ground for a more high-traffic environment.
- Stoney would like to build a visual ring indicator which flashes once somebody calls a specific number.
- Add a HAM autopatch system to the telephony system so sip phones and amateur radio are interconnected
notes
Here's some information on how to power the Cisco 7940's through standard PoE switches. As featured on CampZone 2011. Thanks, Stoney
