Note:
For VoIP data communication in combination with the transmission of limited
amounts of data, a data transmission rate in the LAN of 10 Mbps is sufficient
under certain circumstances. For VoIP data communication in combination
with the transmission of large amounts of data (e. g. downloads), we
recommend upgrading to a data transmission rate of 100 Mbps. For this
purpose, replace not only all of the active network components (e. g. switch
and router), but also all of the passive network components (e. g. cables and
wall sockets). For a reliable support of 100 Mbps, you need cables and wall
sockets of at least Category 5 (CAT5).
When using a switch with PoE function, a separate power supply (e. g. via a
power plug) is not required for connected VoIP telephones, always provided
they support PoE.
• To use DiffServ to prioritise speech packets: DiffServ support on all active network compo-
nents available and enabled
• Two patch cables
Important: If you want to integrate the PBX into an existing network, contact
the system administrator responsible for this. Making changes to an existing
network may cause considerable malfunctions. In addition, please note the
PBX factory settings for the Ethernet configuration described in the chapter
Commissioning > Opening the Configuration Manager of the PBX via PC in
the Same Network.
1. Insert one end of one patch cable into the Ethernet socket on the end device.
2. Insert the other end of the patch cable into an output socket on the switch or into an
existing network outlet.
3. Insert one end of the second patch cable into an output socket on the switch or into
an existing network outlet.
4. Open the casing and insert the other end of the second patch cable into the Ethernet
socket on the COMpact 4000 interface board of the PBX.
Further steps:
• To finish commissioning, you need to set up an internal number for the end device in the
configuration manager.
