Install the Conference Phone in Daisy Chain Mode
The daisy chain kit contains a Smart Adapter, a short LAN cable, two long, thicker USB-C cables, and a
shorter, thinner USB-C cable. In daisy chain mode, the conference phones require external power from an
electrical outlet. You must use the Smart Adapter to connect the phones together. The long USB-C cables go
to the phone and the short one goes to the power adapter. Refer to the following figure when you connect the
power adapter and the LAN port to the Smart Adapter.

combination.
The USB-C cable for the power adapter is thinner than the USB-C cables that connect to the phone.
