Alternatively, you can connect the telephone to an external Avaya Ethernet switch, including a P333T,
P333PWR, P130, or P130PWR. This switch must be connected to the LAN port on the Avaya G350
Media Gateway. This port is labeled 10/3.
If the telephone is not an Avaya IP telephone, you can connect it to any port on the network switch. Note
the slot and port number on the Avaya G350 Media Gateway to which you connect the telephone.

Connecting a DCP telephone

This section explains how to add a DCP telephone. With a DCP telephone, the physical port to which you
connect the telephone determines the telephone's extension number.
!
The ports on the DCP media modules are intended for in-building use only. Phone lines connected
to these ports are not to be routed out-of-building. Failure to comply with this could cause harm to
personnel and equipment.
To connect the new DCP telephone, plug the telephone into a network jack in the wall. The jack must be
wired to a DCP telephone port on the Avaya G350 Media Gateway.
•
If the project manager gave you a preassigned port, connect the telephone to the preassigned port.
•
If you do not have a preassigned port, note the extension and port number of the port to which you
connect the telephone.
If the network jack is not yet wired to the Avaya G350 Media Gateway, you must connect it. The
following media modules contain DCP telephone ports:
•
Avaya MM312 — 24 DCP ports
•
Avaya MM712 — 8 DCP ports
•
Avaya MM717 — 24 DCP ports
The front panel of the MM717 contains a single 25 pair amphenol connector, rather than individual DCP
ports. To connect a DCP telephone to an MM717 media module:
1
Connect one end of a CAT5 cable with a 25-pin amphenol connector at each end to the 25-pin
socket on the MM717 front panel, so that the cable extends to the right of the G350. (The cable
you use must be such that the connector you plug into the MM717 media module is 90 ° to the
cable.) Refer to
