UT880 Owner's Guide
Connect the Ethernet cable to the LAN port. (When a UT880 is to be
used with a PC, the PC's Ethernet cable should be connected to the
LAN connection port while the PC is connected to the handset's PC
connection port.). The LAN and PC connector is a RJ-45 type, and
the Ethernet cable is a UTP cable (Category 5).
Connect the ends of the Ethernet cable to the PC and the UT880 PC
Ethernet port.
The UT880 is a PoE enabled device, so no power adapter is needed.
The UT880 factory default is set to use DHCP, so if there is a designated
DHCP server on the user's network, the IP address will be automatically
assigned. However, if there is no DHCP, an available static IP should be
requested and assigned by a network administrator.

Get the Phone IP Address

The UT880 requires an IP address assigned for the corresponding
network environment. Factory default is enabled for DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
