BOSST101
• Connecting to a Switch/Hub:
You can easily connect
BOSST101 to an existing local network with standard Category
5 ethernet cable. BOSST101 can obtain an IP automatically
from your local DHCP server or you can assign a static IP,
which is assigned
by network administrator (see
WAN Settings on page 57
). In
both scenarios, please make sure existing network is well man-
aged as Voice quality depends on bandwidth availability.
PSTN Connection
• Connecting BOSST101 to your Landline:
You can connect
your PSTN line(s) from the wall jack(s) to your BOSST101. Take
note of which telephone line is connected to which BOSST101
FXO line jack as you will need it for configuration.
• Connecting Analog Extensions:
You can connect analog
devices such as telephones, fax machines, or answering
machines to your BOSST101. Connect your analog extensions
to the Phone ports (Phone 1 and Phone 2) on the rear of your
BOSST101.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or
larger telecommunication line cord.
