Sipura SPA-3000
I can’t say enough good things about this device. The sound quality of the calls through it is excellent, it has a ton of settings (most of them we don’t need to use with asterisk, but it’s nice to know they are there), and a neat power-loss failover feature. This feature patches your analog phone line (trunk) through to the analog phone (extension) should power to the device be lost, maintaining a phone with a dial-tone for you. Very nice.
To read how to configure this device to work with Asterisk@Home, and vice versa, click here. The only problem I ran into that wasn’t mentioned in those instructions is to change the dial plan on the Advanced Line1 page. Otherwise, the analog phone you connect to the SPA-3000 will not know to send the dialed digits to the asterisk box for handling, and will try to handle the dialing itself. The Dial Plan at the bottom of the Advanced Line1 page should be this (at least it worked for me):
(*xx[34569]11<:@gw0>000[2-9]xxxxxx<:@gw0>1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0xxxxxxxxxxxx.)
For screen shots of one of my configured SPA-3000s, see the below links. You may have to save them to your computer and open with a viewer that has a zoom function.

Thanks for all this great info... Looks like a new blog, but tons of potential. I tried that dial plan, but I still have to wait some time before the digits are sent... i can speed it up by pushing #... I wonder if there's a way to fix that.
Keep up the good work!
Jim,
What you have to do is place an S0 (S zero) command at the end of each individual dial plan entry. Or you can do it per entry such as internal extensions, as I have edited mine (extensions are the last four string entries). See below.
(*xx|[34569]11<:@gw0>|0|00|[2-9]xxxxxxS0<:@gw0>|1xxx[2-9]xxxxxxS0|xxxxxxxxxxxxS0|200S0|201S0|202S0|204S0|.)
The ".)" in the above dial plan was truncated when I posted my comment above.
Do you have any knowledge of Axon PBX ? I am looking for someone who has SPA3000 sucessfully connected to this PBX server...
This is the first I've heard of Axon PBX, so I'm afraid I can't help you. I am planning on looking into Axon though, and if I have time to test it with my spa 3000s, and can get it working, I'll create a post on how to do it.
