I’d also find it interesting. A PBX like this is definitely not contemporary business telephony - it’s pretty vintage if you actually use it. I have a AT&T Merlin Legend which is well past vintage age. I’d haul it down for VCF East if you wanted to try and figure out trunking (has at least one ISDN port and I have a T1 line card too.) Mostly it exists to ring our stylish vintage telephone collection. :) -- Jameel Akari

Hi Jason - I would find this interesting. I have a couple of old Televantage computer based PBX’s - who I believe were made by the same folks who owned Comdial (Artisoft / Vertical).

Would people be interested in a PBX exhibit?
I have a large Comdial pbx, with computer voicemail / auto attendant, which I could hook up to and show how call flow and system programming work...
Would this be on the PSTN, or C*Net?
Do you have the ability to hand off a PRI?
And finally, is this something people would find interesting?
This is a bit new for a VCF, circa 1997.

If there was wired Ethernet providing general Internet access, I would use it.
If not, I bodge something together with my phone and my Mac like we’ve done the past couple years.

So the usual suspects from both CDL and VCF have been upgrading the network at Camp Evans. As noted by Jeff B, we extended single-mode fiber to 9032 and have the access points and a 48 port PoE switch staged to deploy.
Question for the folks that will be exhibiting in or using 9032A for VCF East: Will anyone need telephone lines (analog / ISDN) or wired Internet connections during VCF East in the big room?
Knowing ahead of time will let us prioritize the work better
