SIP Firmware for IP Phone 1120E and 1140E Overview
The Nortel IP Phone 1100 Series portfolio is Nortel’s new generation of desktop IP Clients
which builds upon Nortel’s standard for ease-of-use, reliability and robustness. The IP
Phone 1100 Series hardware incorporates high-resolution, back-lit, pixel-based displays and
a sleek, cutting-edge ergonomic design on all models along with support for standardsbased USB, Gigabit Ethernet and Bluetooth wireless technology integration on selected
portfolio models.
The IP Phone 1120E and IP Phone 1140E models are currently generally available to the
global market. The new enhancements deliver standards-based SIP Firmware for the IP
Phone 1120E and IP Phone 1140E
Communication Server 5100 Release 3.5 & Release 4.0. The initial release of the SIP
Firmware does not support the IP Phone 1110, IP Phone 1150E, or the Expansion Module
for IP Phone 1100 Series. A high level view of the physical model of IP Phone 1120E and
1140E is shown in Diagrams 1-3 below followed by technical details of the SIP Firmware.

The rear view of the IP Phone 1120E & 1140E connections are shown in Diagram 3.
The tilt-lever is used to adjust the angle position of the IP Phone 1100 Series deskset. Five
positions are supported which provide a total angle range of 60 degrees (-5 to +55 degrees).
The adjustable tilt-stand, in combination with the high-resolution graphical displays, provides
superior viewing experience for users of the phones.
IP Phones 1120E and 1140E integrate an industry standard USB port, which elevates user
experience and boosts personal productivity, by providing support for standard mouse or
keyboards that allow very intuitive navigation of SIP telephony and SIP-based Instant
Messaging (IM) applications.
