[cisco-voip] VG350 Gateway ... anyone deployed this yet?

[Heim, Dennis]

I wonder what the smartnet pricing delta is between the 224 and 350.

Even when you look at 4pack prices?

It's cheaper per-port than the VG224, by about 10-15% last time I ran then numbers.  Plus you get less management points. The cards also have some nice features - passthrough FXO, some higher voltages on certain ports, etc.
The snag a few people have hit is that it requires 8.6.2, there's no .cop file to apply it to 8.5 and previous versions.

Has anyone deployed a VG350 gateway recently? I believe it was announced only last summer. It's a high density analog gateway, part of the VGXXX family. It's a 3900 series router with high density voice modules on it.

I still have to do a port cost analysis, but thought I'd ask about experience. Some advantages I see are one device configuration and only one (or two with redundancy) uplink ports needed. Power savings may be a wash, not sure yet. Of course, with one device, comes one point of failure.

Any thoughts would be welcome.
