For details on initial setup of your VoIP phone or smartphone and the EXPLORER 540,
see
• The documentation for your handset
• First time SIP setup on page C-5
• To manage VoIP phones or smartphones on page C-8
To connect a VoIP phone, do as follows:
1. Start up the EXPLORER 540 terminal.
2. Connect your phone via a router/switch to the LAN interface on the EXPLORER 540
When the VoIP phone is powered and ready, you are able to make and receive calls
over BGAN.
1. Since there is only the one LAN interface and the EXPLORER 540 cannot provide
power, you must connect the phone(s) via external equipment such as a router (wired
or wireless) or a switch.

Phone calls are only possible if the airtime subscription is a BGAN class 2
subscription, not M2M.
Make sure your VoIP phone has an integrated SIP client. The EXPLORER 540
has an integrated SIP server.
If you are using a Thrane IP Handset and have enabled support for it, no initial
configuration is necessary.
