Power supply (PoE)
The IP Handset is powered from the LAN interface, using Power over Ethernet. The total output
power from all 4 interfaces is
• 64 W at 24 V DC power supply
• 32 W at 12 V DC power supply
All interfaces can support devices of power class 1, 2 and 3 (4, 7 and 15.4 Watt), as long as the
total power consumption does not exceed the above limits. If the limits are exceeded, the LAN
ports are prioritised so that LAN port 1 has the highest priority.
In case of power hold-up (failure on input power), PoE will be turned off completely.
To start up the IP Handset
The following procedure is for the IP Handset from Cobham SATCOM. The procedure may be
different for another type of IP handset.
To start up the IP Handset, do as follows:
1. Connect the Ethernet cable from the IP Handset/cradle to one of the LAN (PoE)
connectors on the terminal as described in the user manual for the handset.
2. The handset starts up automatically.
When the display shows this symbol in the upper right corner, the handset is ready to
make a call.
If the handset is not ready to make calls, it may be because the BGAN terminal is waiting for a
SIM PIN. To check this, enter the handset menu system and select
BGAN > Status > PIN
status
.
You can enter the SIM PIN using the IP Handset. For details, see
To enter the SIM PIN using a
phone or IP Handset on page 19.
Note
By default, a handset connected to the LAN interface on the terminal is automatically
registered in the terminal and assigned the first available local number. For
information on how to connect handsets, see
To connect and configure IP handsets
on page 83.
