dialplan #38

I am confused.. Does chan-sccp use a dialplan.xml for number matching, or do you have to use the digit-timeout feature or dial # after the number to dial immediately?

Skinny phones do not support or use (nor download the dialplan.xml used by sip phones), so no.

On modern (java based) skinny phones you should be using onhook dialing an cause an 'enbloc' dial sending the whole number at once. -> No timeout waiting.

In offhook mode or on older models (like 7960 for example) we have no option but to dial digit by digit and have to wait for either a "number_complete" message from sip (when using a finite/fixed length dialplan (if applicable to your country)) or wait for secondary digit timeout. You can expedite the latter by adding a '#' at the end of the number, to tell the phone that the number is complete.

Do have a look at fixed length numbering plans here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_numbering_plan. When asterisk is provided with a finite dialplan for your country, it can know in advance when a number is or isn't complete and start dialing immediately.
