Step 1: Connecting data and voice devices

There are various possible ways of connecting different devices. See your planning
documentation for any topology requirements to connect specific devices to specific ports. As
you connect devices, keep a record of the slots and ports into which specific devices are
connected. You will need this information when configuring the G250.

Connecting a switch or a network data port

The G250 can provide network switching and also supports the connection of switches. There
are various devices that may need to be connected:
One or more LAN switches
●
The network data ports in the office
●
You can connect either a LAN switch or a network data port, via a network cable, to the ETH
LAN PoE (Power over Ethernet) ports on the G250 front panel.
