Connecting devices

Connecting a server

You can connect a server to any of the following:
A switch connected to the Avaya G350 Media Gateway
●
One of the following ports on the MM314 media module, if installed:
●
- 24 Ethernet 10/100 Base-T Ethernet access ports with inline Power over Ethernet
(PoE)
- The copper Gigabit port, labelled 6/51
One of the following ports on the MM316 media module, if installed:
●
- 40 Ethernet 10/100 Base-T Ethernet access ports with inline Power over Ethernet
(PoE)
- The copper Gigabit port, labelled 51
One of the following ports on the front panel of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway chassis:
●
- The ETH LAN port
- The ETH WAN port
To connect the server to the ETH LAN, ETH WAN, MM314, or MM316 ports, a straight network
cable with an RJ-45 connector or a crossover cable with an RJ-45 connector must be used.

Connecting an IP telephone

If the IP telephone will be powered through the G350, you must use a telephone that supports
PoE, and the telephone will power up if and when PoE is configured on the port to which the
telephone is connected. For information about configuring PoE, see Chapter 10, Configuring
PoE, in Administration for the Avaya G250 and Avaya G350 Media Gateways, 03-300436.
Note:
First generation IP phones do not support PoE.
Note:
Alternatively, you can connect the telephone to an external Avaya Ethernet switch, including a
P333T, P333PWR, P130, or P130PWR. This switch must be connected to the LAN port on the
Avaya G350 Media Gateway. This port is labeled 10/3.
If the telephone is not an Avaya IP telephone, you can connect it to any port on the network
switch. Note the slot and port number on the Avaya G350 Media Gateway to which you connect
the telephone.
