iOS and/or Android device. Computer users are welcome to
register online as well; or, you can register from within the
software (see the XGate Help File > Register for Service for
details).
If using an Analog phone adapter with Aurora (sold
separately), the phone adapter will assign line 1 (the Captain
line) to extension 201 and line 2 (if using a dual phone
adapter) to extension 202.
Users using the XGate Phone app in addition to analog
adapters need to change the settings in XGate Phone or
other SIP client to change the SIP extensions to something
other than 201 and 202 (since those two extensions will
automatically be assigned to the analog adapters and will
cause conflicts if the SIP clients try to use those same
extensions).
Voice With Analog Phone
Aurora will also work with one or two analog phones by using
an Aurora analog phone adapter (sold separately).
1-Port Analog Adapter
This adapter provides an interface between the Aurora unit
and one analog telephone to allow you to make phone calls
over satellite with a standard telephone. This adapter is
powered by a 12V adapter. This adapter is sold separately.
Please contact your satellite dealer for more information.
2-Port Analog Adapter
This adapter provides an interface between the Aurora unit
and two analog telephones to allow you to set up a PBX
system with multiple analog telephones. This adapter is
powered by a 5V adapter. This adapter is sold separately.
Please contact your satellite dealer for more information.
Both analog adapters can work in conjunction with
smartphone use. Care needs to be taken, however, in
assigning the appropriate extensions to each device so that
they don’t conflict.
