A complete line of NBX phones, all incredibly easy to install and use, are diverse enough to meet the needs of almost any organization. Choose from the sophistication of dialing phone numbers using the infrared (IR) capabilities of a Palm OS-powered organizer or the simplicity of an NBX Basic Phone. Built-in displays give easy access to a directory of internal users, speed dials, and even personal call logs of the last 100 calls. 3Com NBX phones come with either a built-in hub or switch port so that a computer can easily share the same cable run as the telephone. There are even choices for Ethernet connectivity, either 10 Mbps shared or 10/100 switched.\n Less

2101 Issues

bybpeet Mar 7, 2007
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros The NBX system is very useable and manageable. Had very few issues with it.
Cons Again, 2101 and 2102 phones are JUNK!!!
Recommended it? No

We have found that the hookswitch design is poor at best. After two or three months of use the hookswitches will fail to connect properly. You can disassemble the phones and clean them but this is time consuming at best. We purchased the warranty but the phones they send are just the same with the... Read full review »

Pros simple, elegant, VOIP, power over ethernet, NBX phone systems one of the best VOIP system
Cons very high failure rate, call quality
Recommended it? No

I have been interested in Ip phone systems including the 3COM NBX line. I work for an IT consulting company that provides phone solutions in Southern California. We experience very high failure rates with 3com phones. It seems like we replace just about very phone every 1-2 years. The jacks are... Read full review »

Incredibly Low-Priced Phone Service with Adequate Quality

byorion522 Jun 12, 2007
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Cost-per-call, no connection fees, battery life, loads of features!
Cons Phone Price, Requires a PC, cannot use multiple handsets on one base.
Recommended it? Yes

I have used both Skype and Yahoo voice-over-IP (VoIP) service and even though I believe Skype has a leg-up on quality of service, Yahoo definitely wins in the overall cost area.

Yahoo Voice Brief Overview
I found that Yahoo's "Phone Out" service is more than adequate for making calls... Read full review »

Great idea - with room for practical improvements

bypablo_lie Aug 27, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Skype as your home phone, appealing design
Cons Setup at first challenging - Linksys expects quite a bit from users!
Recommended it? Yes

Some reviews already exist, so I'll be brief and to the point.

If you're not technology literate and expect things to work out of the box, stay away from this. Really - it's not plug_and_play. If you like to fiddle and take pride in having next gen technology work for you, you may like... Read full review »
