Welcome!
Congratulations on your purchase of the Net2Phone MAX 420!
The Net2Phone MAX 420 is a stand-alone device that connects directly into an
existing LAN through an RJ-45 port. The MAX 420’s can support 4 FXS ports.
A separate port with its own telephone line connection to an analog telephone is
required for each concurrent telephone call (or conversation) desired. For
example, if capability for 3 concurrent calls is desired, then the MAX must have at
least 3 ports connected to analog telephones.
FXS ports connect to standard analog devices such as corded and cordless
telephones and fax machines. Optionally, they may be connected to the analog
trunk card on PBX, APBX, or KPS (Key Phone System) systems. They are used
to place outgoing calls over the Internet and to receive incoming calls from other
Net2Phone devices.
