Initial Connecting and Settings
2.1 Connect the phone
Connect to network
Step 1: Connect the IP Phone to the corporate IP telephony network. Before you
connect the phone to the network, please check if your network can work
normally.
You can do this in one of two ways, depending on how your workspace is set up.
Direct network connection—by this method, you need at least one available
Ethernet port in your workspace. Use the Ethernet cable in the package to connect
WAN port on the back of your phone to the Ethernet port in your workspace.
Since this VoIP Phone has router functionality, whether you have a broadband
router or not, you can make direct network connect. The following two figures are
for your reference.
Shared network connection—Use this method if you have a single Ethernet port in
your workspace with your desktop computer already connected to it. First,
disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer and attach it to the WAN port on
the back of your phone. Next, use the Ethernet cable in the package to connect
LAN port on the back of your phone to your desktop computer. Your IP Phone
now shares a network connection with your computer. The following figure is for
your reference.
Step 2: Connect the handset to the handset port by the handset cable in the
package.
