Creating a Voice Network
Using the Internet and the WAN port, it is possible to connect multiple X-50 systems together creating one large
voice network “Campus Environment”, with 3 or 4 digit dialing between each location. To keep it cost effective, only
one X-50 VoIP Telephone System requires a static Class A or B IP Address the rest can use DHCP Addresses.
However, each location must have access to the Internet with enough bandwidth to support the number of calls to be
processed. Creating this type of voice network requires a little preplanning to ensure that there enought bandwidth
and no numbering conflicts.
Generally, it is a good idea to have a specific numbering sequence for each location. This can be as easy as routing
specifc groups of numbers, such as 100 to 149 for the “Master System”, 150 to 199 for the second location, 200 to
299 for the third location, etc., or when using 4 digit dialing the numbering plan may resemble 1000 to 1499 for the
Master System, 1500 to 1999 for the second location, 2000 to 2999 for the third location, etc. Another option is to use
a “leading Digit”, where the Master System is 1 + the extension number (1101, 1102, 1103, etc.), the second system
is 2 + the extension number (2101, 2102, 2103, etc.), the third system is 3 + the extension number (3101, 3102,
3103, 3014, etc.).
