When assigning an IP address to MP-11x using HTTP (refer to 'Assigning an
IP Address Using HTTP' on page 36), you may be required to disconnect the
Ethernet cable and re-cable it differently.
•
Ensure that you connect FXS ports only to analog telephones or PBX
trunk lines, and FXO ports only to CO/PBX lines; otherwise, damage to
MP-11x may occur.
•
To protect against electrical shock and fire, use a 26 AWG minimum wire
to connect FXO ports to the PSTN.
•
FXO and FXS ports are considered TNV-3
•
FXO (Foreign Exchange Office) is the interface replacing the analog
telephone and connects to a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)
line from the Central Office (CO) or to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).
The FXO is designed to receive line voltage and ringing current, supplied
from the CO or the PBX (just like an analog telephone). An FXO VoIP
device interfaces between the CO/PBX line and the Internet.
•
FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) is the interface replacing the Exchange
(i.e., the CO or the PBX) and connects to analog telephones, dial-up
modems, and fax machines. The FXS is designed to supply line voltage
and ringing current to these telephone devices. An FXS VoIP device
interfaces between the analog telephone devices and the Internet.
