About This Guide
Thank you for choosing a XBLUE QB PBX (Quad-Band PBX) server. XBLUE QB Series PBX
servers are a stand-alone telephone system providing the user with an on-premise, fully-featured
business telephone system. Your XBLUE QB PBX is an advanced application telephone system in
an IP server format connected using your
local area network. QB Series PBX’s are hybrids capable
of PSTN (Regular Phone Lines), VoIP Phone Lines, GSM Telephone Lines, or LTE Telephone
Lines/Data Circuit (for voice communications). The configuration of your server depends upon the
Package you’ve purchased.
This guide is intended to get your telephone system functioning quickly. XBLUE pioneered the self-
install business telephone system in 2007 and continues to deliver easy to install and administer
business phone systems in a DIY fashion to save you money. However, if you need help, we are

and connection of analog telephone lines.
Your QB PBX is an advanced application product that is best adapted into a network by preparing
for the installation. First gather information about your office network to prepare to connect your QB
PBX into that environment.
Synopsis of what follows to get your telephone system functional:
1. Find your netwo
rk IP Address scheme (Subnet)…
a. A LAN (Local Area Network) is a Private network that cannot be navigated via the
internet. Private IP Address segments begin with 192.168.x.x, or 172.16-31.x.x, or
10.x.x.x
2. Find the IP Address of your router
3. Connect LAN port of the QB server to the existing network.
4. Connect all XBLUE IP7g telephones to the existing network.
5. Using an internet browser (Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari) visit the Advanced IP
Scanner website and use that utility to discover the IP Address that your network has
assigned to the QB server.
6. Set that IP as RESERVED in your network router. [If you use an ISP router (Comcast, Time
Warner, Frontier, etc.) you can contact them for help with this step.]
7. Using your browser, log into the QB server using the IP Address discovered.
8. Run QB Server Auto Provisioning application to set the extension numbers of each of the
phones connected.
After completing these steps, the QB server and IP7g telephones will be functional for the usual
operations required in business communications. There are many ways to customize your caller
experiences and many features available. Enjoy your QB server, IP7g telephones and all that is
possible using the guides we’ve loaded on our website for easy reference.
