Software/Firmware related differentiating factors

The telephony application provides a set of features and the connectivity to a set of SIP systems (proxies, application servers)

  • General overview on platforms / systems:
Platform Comment Details
HiPath 8000 IP-Softswitch V2.2

For detailed interoperability information please check Software version and Interoperability sections on this page.
Connectivity to several VoIP providers is supported.
For configuration hints see the How To article.

Documentation

All OpenStage phones are shipped with a printed document (pdf.png  QRG OpenStage ML) providing brief instruction regarding installation and operation. For both user and administrators, a comprehensive and updated documentation is provided as PDF files.

Web Based Training

Try out the Web Based Training for OpenStage 40 and OpenStage 60/80 telephones.

Firmware / Software

The SIP firmware provides encryption capabilities. Hence its distribution must follow legal requirements which do not allow unrestricted SW distribution via the Internet. The firmware is only provided by Siemens technicians or by official Siemens Partners. Customers with self-care contracts will have access to SW within the SEBA Web portal (login required).

The Application software of the OpenStage SIP phones can be transferred to the phone:

  • using FTP or HTTPS method.
  • using Deployment Service (HiPath DLS V1 R2.21.0 necessary).
  • using WBM phone interface (OpenStage SIP V1.0 need the Application software V1 R0.3.1).

Current software releases

The actual Application software is OpenStage 20/40/60/80 SIP V1 R2.5.10.

Interoperability Matrix

For detailed interoperability information please check OpenStage SIP interoperability matrix.

OpenStage Manager

The OpenStage Manager is a comprehensive and powerful tool for your OpenStage 60 and OpenStage 80 telephone. The main function of the OpenStage Manager is to serve as an interface between your phone and PC, thus enabling convenient phonebook editing on your PC. OpenStage Manager allows you to synchronize contacts in Microsoft Outlook with the contacts in your telephone.

Mass deployment

What do we mean with “deployment”?

The installation of an IP phone in general requires integrating the phone into an IP infrastructure specific to the customer’s or user’s needs. This integration normally requires some activities on all components involved, i.e. on the IP phone and on other components like application servers and routers.
Additionally to the hardware related tasks like providing LAN cables and setting up the necessary power supply, this integration also covers adapting the IP phone to the individual customer configuration by setting various parameters to appropriate values. In this article we will use the term “deployment” for this task, including the provisioning of new software to the IP phone. Sometimes the term “provisioning” is used instead of “deployment”.

Individual phones can be easily set up using the local menue and the keypad or - more comfortable and even remotely - the phone's web administration. Larger companies or voice service providers have to install and maintain hundreds or thousands of phones, requiring mass deployment capabilities.

Mass deployment – how it works

IP terminals offer a range of functions and characteristics that were unknown or technically impossible in analog or early digital system environments (for example, ISDN). But increased product flexibility requires more complex technology. For this reason, it is essential that VoIP devices be optimally configured for users while at the same time expenditure (costs, time, training) must be kept to a minimum for service providers. Different scenarios have different requirements. However the following factors are critical for all solutions:

  • Minimum network intervention or modification
  • No inflexible or costly preconfiguration at the terminal
  • No or minimum (one-off) user activities

There are two main scenarios:

Add-On devices, Adapters and Accessories

Headsets

The following headsets could be used with OpenStage 40, 60 and 80 phones:

Plantronics headsets:

  • Single earpiece (monaural, sound in one ear) headset style:
    • with noise canceling microphone
      • H141N DuoSet
      • H91N Encore
      • P91N Encore Polaris
      • H51N Supra
    • with lightweight voice tube microphone style
      • H141 DuoSet
      • H91 Encore
      • P91 Encore Polaris
      • H51 Supra
  • Double earpiece (binaural, sound in both ears) headset style:

      • H101N Encore
      • H61N Supra
    • with lightweight voice tube microphone style
      • H101 Encore
      • H61 Supra

  • Profile
  • Profile binaural


It’s generally recommended to use 8 poles connectors.
Further headsets may be available from other vendors: the main key criteria is the full compliance with 121-TR9-5 (corded) or 121-TR9-5* (cordless) standards.
