ADDING IP PHONES

This section describes how to configure an IP phone as a local extension. An IP phone can be
internal (located in the office) or external (located outside the office).
We recommend TalkSwitch IP phones and supported third-party IP phones for ease of
configuration. TalkSwitch currently supports the following IP phones:
• TalkSwitch 9112i, 9133i and 480i. See Adding TalkSwitch IP Phones on page 82.
• TalkSwitch 850i cordless IP phone. See Adding TalkSwitch TS-850i IP phones on page 90.
• Polycom IP 301, IP 320, IP 330, IP 430, IP 501, IP 550, IP 601 and IP 650. See Adding
Polycom IP Phones on page 98.
• Grandstream GXP2000 and GXP2020. See Adding Grandstream IP phones on page 102.
• Counterpath eyeBeam softphone. See Adding Counterpath IP phones on page 106.

ADDING TALKSWITCH IP PHONES

Use the procedures in this section for adding the TS-9112i, TS-9133i and TS-480i. See Adding
TalkSwitch TS-850i IP phones on page 90 for instructions on adding the TS-850i.
To add a TalkSwitch IP phone within your office, connect the phone to the network and follow
the prompts on the phone to set the extension number. The phone will work right away. Later
you can complete the configuration in the TalkSwitch management software.
Alternatively, you can connect the phone to the network, skip setting the extension number
and then do the configuration using the TalkSwitch management software.
External IP extensions must be configured using the TalkSwitch management software. Connect
the phone to the network and skip setting the extension number using the phone. Additional
steps are required. See Configuring the system for external IP extensions on page 89 and
Programming the TalkSwitch IP phone as an external IP extension on page 89.

Connecting the TalkSwitch IP phone to the network

1. If you will select the extension using the phone itself, ensure the TalkSwitch management
software is closed.
2. Connect a network cable between the LAN port on the phone (marked
(i.e. router or LAN connection). The TalkSwitch 9133i and 480i IP phones also have a PC
port. The PC port can be used to connect the PC to the network if only one network
connection is available.
3. Connect power to the phone, either using the power adapter, or an 802.3af Power-Over-
Ethernet (POE) source (9133i or 480i). The phone reboots.
If the phone is connected to a different network than the TalkSwitch system, the phone will
display the default time and date of Sat, Jan 1 12:00 am.
