2.Initial connecting and Setting
2.1. connect the phone
Step 1: Connect the IP Phone to the corporate IP telephony network. Before you connect the phone to the
network, please check if your network can work normally.
You can do this in one of two ways, depending on how your workspace is set up.
Direct network connection—by this method, you need at least one available Ethernet port in your workspace.
Use the Ethernet cable in the package to connect WAN port on the back of your phone to the Ethernet port in
your workspace. Since this VoIP Phone has router functionality, whether you have a broadband router or not,
you can make direct network connect. The following two figures are for your reference.
Shared network connection—Use this method if you have a single Ethernet port in your workspace with
your desktop computer already connected to it. First, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer and
attach it to the WAN port on the back of your phone. Next, use the Ethernet cable in the package to connect
LAN port on the back of your phone to your desktop computer. Your IP Phone now shares a network
connection with your computer. The following figure is for your reference
.
Step 2: Connect the handset to the handset port by the handset cable in the package.
Step 3: connect the power supply plug to the DC port on the back of the phone. Use the power cable to
connect the power supply to a standard power outlet in your workspace.
Step 4: push the on/off switch on the back of the phone to the on side, then the phone’s LCD screen displays
“WAIT LOGON”. Later, a ready screen typically displays the date, time and current network mode.
If your LCD screen displays different information from the above, you need refer to the next section “Initial
setting” to set your network online mode.
