Connecting the wired IP Handset to a BGAN terminal
To connect the wired IP Handset to a BGAN terminal do as follows:
1. Start up the BGAN terminal as described in the user manual for the
terminal.
2. Connect the LAN cable from the IP cradle to one of the LAN (PoE)
connectors on the BGAN terminal.
The cable between cradle and terminal must be maximum 80 m.
The IP Handset starts up automatically when connected to the BGAN terminal.
However, you may have to configure user name and password if the handset
has not been connected before. For further information, see
Establishing a
connection using BGAN terminal on page 21.
Note
The LAN interface on the BGAN terminal must supply Power over
Ethernet.
Note
If you insert a switch or similar between the cradle and the
terminal, make sure that it conforms to the industry PoE standard
IEEE 802.3 af (using data pairs) .
