4.8.4 Connecting the IP handset
To connect the IP Handset to the terminal, do as follows:
Connect the cable from the IP cradle to one of the LAN connectors on the
terminal, preferably port 1. In case of insufficient power to the LAN PoE the
LAN ports are prioritized, so that port 1 is the last to be shut down.
Note that the handset and terminal must be set up to be able to communicate
with each other. For further information, refer to the user manual for the
handset.
The maximum length of the cable between IP cradle and terminal is 80 m.
Note
If you insert a switch or similar between the cradle and the terminal,
make sure that it conforms to the industry standard
IEEE 802.3 af
(using data pairs)
