We are going to be installing and ESI 100 on a Church Campus. We are going to have 3 buildings to connect. Going to have about 15 ext's total, 5 digital and 10 local IP. We are running fiber for the building connections and wanted to not use copper being in Sebring, Florida (as I was informed earlier The Lightning Capitol of the US hahahaha)I was wondering if anyone has encountered the use of presence manamgement over such a network?

Doesn't Presence Management connect to the station port? If so, how will you be converting from fiber to copper and copper to fiber, and power the station, etc?
I was thinking the dame thing, when I think campus fiber I think IP stations on the other end. We have mentioned IP Presence Management readers to ESI over te past two years for this situation, also when you install a pure IP switch, you still need digital ports for readers.
So... Like previously mentioned, unless there is a simple pair to pair conversion from copper to fiber and back, I don't know of another solution.
That is what I was thinking, looks like I will have to run as little copper pairs as possible and give it the necessary protection. Just thought I would ask, thanks for the replies
