Digium provides VoIP hardware for SIPit event

Digium is supplying an upcoming SIPit testing event with its VoIP hardware and a Switchvox unified communications system intended for small to medium-sized businesses.

The VoIP hardware is manufactured by Polycom and includes SIP phones that teams testing at the event can use to communicate with one another.

"As a member of the worldwide Voice over IP community for more than ten years, we've participated in multiple SIPit events," writes Kevin P Fleming on the Digium Inside the Asterisk blog.

He adds that the VoIP hardware will be installed for testing use at the 28th SIPit event in Huntsville, Alabama, from April 11th to 15th.

Digium is hosting the event itself, which is organised by the SIP Forum and sponsored by Polycom.

Mr Fleming has programmed in every major language for two decades and is now a keen advocate of open-source approaches, using the distribution model wherever possible in his own life.
