Endpoint Connectors
The Model 8662 has dedicated headset and handset jacks located on the back of the
endpoint used to connect a handset or headset. In addition to the headset and handset
jacks, the endpoint has connectors that are required for an IP endpoint. Two light-
emitting diodes (LEDs) on the PC port and LAN/Power jack indicate link status and
the speed of the connections. The Model 8662 endpoint connectors include:
•
Headset Jack:
Connects to a headset.
•
Handset Jack:
Connects to a handset.
•
Personal Computer (PC) Port:
Connects to a PC or any other 10/100 Ethernet
device.
•
LAN/Power Jack:

For more information about your endpoint’s connectors, power supply, and supported
ethernet devices, contact your network administrator.
Software and Firmware Updates
Your endpoint comes pre-installed with Inter-Tel-provided firmware that allows it to
communicate with the telephone system. Firmware is software that is embedded in a
hardware device (e.g., your endpoint) that allows it to operate. Endpoints may require
updates when a new version of software or firmware is available.
Your endpoint may be configured to download firmware and software updates from a
configured server automatically. If so, your endpoint will periodically check the
server to see if any updates are available. When an update is available, the endpoint
downloads it automatically.
CAUTION
During the download process, it is important that you do not use your endpoint.
This ensures that the software or firmware update is downloaded successfully.
Do
not disconnect the endpoint from it’s power source during the download pro-
cess. Disconnecting the endpoint’s power supply while the endpoint is down-
loading an update may cause serious damage to the endpoint, and the
endpoint may need to be shipped back to Inter-Tel for repair.
