1.4.4.5 Connecting to TalkSwitch from a local extension using a modem
TalkSwitch can be configured locally using any PC with a modem connected to
TalkSwitch and has the TalkSwitch software installed. Version 1.37 or higher of the
software and version 2.37 or higher of the firmware support modem connectivity.
Run the TalkSwitch software then click on 'PC connection'. Select 'Remotely using a
modem' for the connection then the associated COM port for that modem.
No phone number is required since the modem is connected to TalkSwitch when the
modem goes 'off-hook'. The connection should be established very quickly.

We recommend integrating your phone system into your existing LAN with a switched
hub. A switch or switched hub provides direct communication between TalkSwitch
units, thus keeping the TalkSwitch voice over LAN data isolated from other data on
the network.
Connect up to four TalkSwitch units (2 are shown on the following page) to the LAN
