Using A Direct Connection; Using A Bridging Adapter - Avaya PARTNER ACS Installation And Use Manual

You cannot install two system telephones on the same extension, and the combined REN (Ringer
Equivalence Number) of two devices on one extension cannot exceed 2.0. (The REN for a system
telephone is 0.0.)
You can connect a tip/ring device to a system telephone that also has an Intercom
Autodialer installed.
PARTNER telephones have a built-in auxiliary jack so you can connect a tip/ring device directly to
the telephone without using a bridging adapter; this is called a direct connection. If your telephone
does not have a built-in auxiliary jack, or if you want to connect two tip/ring devices together, you
must use a 267F2 Bridging Adapter.

Using a Direct Connection

You can connect a tip/ring device directly to a system telephone by plugging the cord from the tip/
ring device into the AUX jack on the bottom of the system telephone (see
Figure 9-1. Combination Extension Using Direct Connection

Using a Bridging Adapter

You can connect a system telephone and a tip/ring device, or two tip/ring devices by using a 267F2
Bridging Adapter. Connect the system telephone and/or the tip/ring device(s) according to
