Connecting An Ip Telephone; Connecting An Analog Telephone; Step 1: Connecting Data And Voice Devices - Avaya G250 Installation And Upgrade Manual

To connect the server to the ETH LAN PoE ports, use a straight network cable with an RJ-45
connector, or a crossover cable with an RJ-45 connector. To connect the server to the ETH
WAN port, use a straight network cable with an RJ-45 connector.

Connecting an IP telephone

This section describes how to connect an IP telephone to the G250.
To connect an IP telephone:
1. Wire a telephone port to a LAN port on the G250. If the IP telephone will be powered
through the G250, make sure you use a ETH LAN PoE port on the G250. In this case, you
do not need to plug the IP telephone into a power supply.
2. Plug the telephone into the telephone port.
3. If the IP telephone will be powered independently, plug the IP telephone into a power supply
and check that the IP telephone is powered up.
4. If the IP telephone will be powered through the G250, you must use a telephone that
supports PoE, and the telephone will power up if and when PoE is configured on the port to
which the telephone is connected. For information about configuring PoE, see Chapter 10,
Configuring PoE, in Administration of the Avaya G250 Media Gateway, 555-245-501.
Note:
First generation IP phones do not support PoE.
Note:
Alternatively, you can connect the telephone to an external Avaya Ethernet switch, including a
P330, P333T-PWR, C360, or C360-PWR. This switch must be connected to an ETH LAN port
on the Avaya G250 Media Gateway.
If the telephone is not an Avaya IP telephone, you can connect it to any port on the network
switch. Note the port number on the Avaya G250 Media Gateway to which you connect the
telephone.

Connecting an analog telephone

This section explains how to connect an analog telephone.
To connect an analog telephone:
1. Wire a telephone port to one of the two fixed LINE ports on the G250 front panel
2. Plug the analog telephone into the telephone port.
