The 301 has a half-duplex speakerphone, so you can't talk and hear at the same time. It also has a lower display resolution than the 501. It's really meant to be a utility or break room phone. The 501s are only about $20 more, I think, and have a much nicer display and a great speakerphone.
Yeah, I was going to put this phone in a break room and in the lobby. Also, compared to the MGCP, the price differential is about $65.00. May be more though for a 301 SIP.

I was under the impression that it's just firmware. But I could be wrong...
BTW, I'd opt for a higher end polycom if you can. I think the 300 is missing a speakerphone. -Brett

model with the SIP application installed, not MGCP. It's a distinct part

Hi
I was about to order a polycom 301 when I noticed that the
VoIP protocol is listed as MGCP and not SIP, as with the 501.
First, what is MGCP? And, will the 301's work seamlessly with Asterisk and the
other 501 phones that I have?
Thanks
Jim Freeze
