Your phone is based upon industry standard VoIP and will work with Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) compliant VoIP networks. The diagram below provides an example of a VoIP network design with 16 IP phones.

Chapter 2: Installing

NOTE: Before you can install the phone, your system administrator must prepare the network. If a technician is not installing your phone, verify with your System Administrator that the network is ready for the phone, read the safety notice, and install the phone.

Assembling the Phone and Connecting to the Network

1Find the end of the coiled phone cord that has the longer straightened end. Plug that end into the back of the phone base (phone symbol).

2Plug in short straightened end of the handset cord into the jack at the bottom of the handset (not shown).

3If you are using an external power source, push the power cord into the power supply, and plug the power supply into the phone base unit. Use only the power supply that came with the phone. SPA922 &SPA942 can be configured without external power, if connecting to an IEEE powered ethernet switch. See Linksys.com for details.

4Plug the ethernet cable into the back of the base station. Plug the other end of the ethernet cable into your already prepared network connection. If the phone is configured using an optional POE (Power of Ethernet) adapter, see that device’s instructions to properly set up.

Turning on the Phone

This section assumes that the correct connections have been made.

Plug in the AC power adapter to an electrical outlet. Use only the adapter that came with the phone.

The phone will execute a boot-up sequence when the power source is connected.

During this sequence, the display will first show LINKSYS® and then “Initializing Network”.

All of the lights on the phone will flash.

After the sequence, which should take about five seconds, the phone will display the standard menu for the phone.

The date, name and number of the phone will display on the top line of the LCD screen.

At the bottom of the LCD screen redial, dir, cfwd and dnd are displayed over their associated soft buttons. A small arrow appears next to dnd indicating that more menus can be accessed by pushing the right side of the navigation button.

If the phone does not provide this screen, re-confirm installation and connections. If these are correct, try unplugging the phone and plugging it back in again. If you still don’t see the display, then contact your Phone Administrator or service provider.
