Mitel SX200, SX2000, and older SX platforms / Seeking Expansion or Upgrade Path from SX-200 - New to Mitel
« on: August 17, 2018, 11:06:24 AM »
Please pardon my ignorance - my field is environmental consulting (wastewater plant upgrades) and I have not dealt with telephone systems previously.
I came across a Mitel SX-200 MX controller in the IT closet of a wastewater plant. I can see that it is hooked up to several rack mounted analog-to-digital modules that fit in slots.
We are building a new facility for the plant nearby that will require telephone service integrated with the existing system. A couple of questions I had, because I know the plant will ask:
1. Are there current controller products that are backwards compatible with the SX-200 infrastructure, something that can be swapped out so that only the controller is updated?
2. If I had to keep the SX-200 MX the way it is, are there current phones available that I can use in the new facility that I can just plug into a network switch and route the cable back to the SX-200 rack? We will probably not have more than 5 or 10 endpoints at the new facility.
Any recommendations that you have I would appreciate.
Thanks!
