VoIP Adapter
The VoIP Adapter provides the ability to communicate through a LAN which is connected to an 4VOIPU-S
PCB. The VOIPU PCB is required in order to communicate with non-VoIP Aspire phones, as well as to place
or receive outside calls.
This feature requires the use of a display keyset. As the VoIP Adapter is double the width of the other phone
adapters, only the VoIP Adapter can be used on a keyset. No other space is available for any additional
adapter.
This optional adapter cannot be installed on an Aspire 2-button, IPhone or super display
telephone.
When installing the VoIP Adapter, an AC/DC adapter is required for local power or, for central power, one of
the following must be used:
●
Power Supply Patch Panel (SN1604 PWRMS - NEC standard product)
●
Power Patch Panel (Cisco)
●
Catalyst PWR Series (Cisco)
The separate ethernet switch should be a 100Base/full duplex switch. To avoid network problems and to
ensure good voice quality, do not use a Repeater Hub/10Base.
When installing or removing the adapters,
the keyset should
fi
rst be unplugged from the system
. Telephones
with any adapters installed cannot be wall-mounted. The bracket will not accommodate the adapter(s).
Installing the VoIP Adapter:
1.
Unplug the line cord from the keyset.
The line cord will not be needed with the VoIP Adapter as the system connection will be made
through the LAN connection.
2.
Using a
fl
at-head screwdriver, remove the plastic punch-out piece covering the connector.
Note the position of the connector on the VoIP Adapter in order to remove the correct piece (the
adapter uses the connection on the side of the phone which has the line cord connection.
3.
Set the dip switches on the top of the VoIP adapter to the required position. The setting is dependent
upon the type of power supply being used.
●
The SW1 settings are “1” when using an AC/DC adapter or SN1604 PWRMS, “2’ when using
Cisco’s Power Patch Panel or Catalyst PWR panel.
