Hi all,
I have to install a phone system to handle the calls for a small office
with an ISDN line in Italy.

I would like to get cordless DECT terminals for the office workers, 3 in
total.

I found the Simens Gigaset ISDN products and it looks like they could do
the job of a traditional ISDN PBX sytem for a small office at a fraction
of the price.

Here are the Siemens ISDN base systems that I am considering:

Gigaset SX353isdn
<http://www.siemens-mobile.com/cds/frontdoor/0,2241,hq_en_0_15710_rArNrNrNrN,00.html>

Gigaset SX255isdn
<http://www.siemens-mobile.com/cds/frontdoor/0,2241,hq_en_0_15708_rArNrNrNrN,00.html>

I am not sure if I should go for the Gigaset SX353isdn or the Gigaset
SX255isdn.

Both base systems will allow up to 3 simultaneous calls (2 external and
1 internal) and up to 8 DECT handsets.

I noticed the following differences: the SX353isdn includes a corded
phone and support Bluetooth, the SX255isdn has 2 analogue inputs
(instead of 1).

Did I miss any other difference?
The price is the same (176 euro).

About the cordless terminals, I am considering the Gigaset SL1 colour or
the Gigaset S1:
<http://www.siemens-mobile.com/cds/frontdoor/0,2241,hq_en_0_23641_rArNrNrNrN,00.html>
<http://www.siemens-mobile.com/cds/frontdoor/0,2241,hq_en_0_15703_rArNrNrNrN,00.html>

They are standard DECT phones, they are around 100 euro (it depends on
the model).

What do you think about this phone setup?
Will it work fine for a small office?
Should I go directly for a traditional ISDN PBX system (that of course
is much more expensive)?
I don't anticipate any expansion in the office anytime soon.

Do you recommend any other product/brand to setup such phone system?

Thanks!

Several people here (myself included) have BT badged (Siemens
manufactured) Diverse ISDN systems.

I'm not sure whether they're identical to the Siemens own-branded
ones, but you can often pick them up pretty cheaply from EBay or:-

Do you know what's the original Siemens system?

The Siemens Gigase website is at the following URL:

Thanks.

Looks like the current Siemens one has far more features than the BT
one (USB connectivity, set up via PC) etc.
