16 Overview of key hardware elements and devices

Attention: If the telephone displays a prompt that indicates it cannot find the server, follow the instructions in IP phone registration (page 53) to enter the specific network path. Troubleshooting IP telephones (page 19) describes other possible prompt messages.

If you do not automatically register to the system, you can configure the telephone settings to enable you to access a system on the network. You must perform additional steps if your IP telephone does not connect to the same LAN to which the system connects.

After you have entered all the configuration information, the telephone attempts to connect to the system. The message “Locating Server” appears on the display. If the connection is successful, the message changes to “Connecting to Server” after 15 seconds. Initialization can take several minutes. Do not disturb the telephone during this time.

When the telephone connects to the server and is ready to use, the display shows the time and date, and the six keys at the top of the display become labelled.

If you experience problems with IP telephone registration, see

Troubleshooting IP telephones (page 19).

If the DN record is not configured, as with auto-assigned DNs, you can only place local calls until other lines assigned in the DN record.

If no one registered the telephone previously, you receive a “New Set” message. Enter the information as prompted. See Registering the telephone to the system (page 17).

IP phone configuration

The configuration of the IP phones depends on whether you use Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) on the system.

•If you use DHCP service on the system, or you configured the Customer DHCP server to hand out specific system network details, the IP telephone automatically attempts to find the server.

After you register the telephone to the system, as described in, Registering the telephone to the system (page 17)the telephone assumes the parameters it receives from the system, which are described in Configuring telephone settings (page 17)

•If you did not configure DHCP to provide system information, or if you do not use DHCP on your network, you must configure your telephone parameters before the telephone can register to the system. In this case, follow the directions in Configuring telephone settings (page 17), and then

Overview of key hardware elements and devices 17

follow the prompts that appear, as described in Registering the telephone to the system (page 17)

•If an external DHCP server does not exist, the DHCP server on the main unit supplies IP configuration information for all IP devices (PCs and IP Phones). It also supplies specific connection information to the IP Phones.

Registering the telephone to the system

When you first connect the telephone to the IP connection, you receive one of the following:

•If the telephone is not yet registered, and when a password is entered in the Terminal Registration screen, the telephone prompts you for that password.

•If Auto Assign DN is not selected, the telephone prompts you for a DN. For more information see the BCM450 1.0 Configuration–Devices Guide

(NN40160-500)

•If you are prompted for a password, enter the password and press OK.

•If you are prompted for a DN, enter the DN you want assigned to this telephone and press OK.

If the telephone displays a prompt that indicates it cannot find the server, follow the instructions in Configuring telephone settings (page 17)to enter the specific network path.Troubleshooting IP telephones (page 19) describes other possible prompt messages.

Configuring telephone settings

If you are not automatically registered to the system, you can configure the telephone settings to enable you to access a system on the network. You also must perform these steps if your IP telephone is not connected to the same LAN to which the system is connected. For more information about accessing the telephone configuration menus see, IP phone registration (page 53)

If you experience problems with IP telephone registration, refer to the section Troubleshooting IP telephones (page 19).

If the DN record is not configured yet, as is the case with auto-assigned DNs, you can only place local calls until other lines are assigned in the DN record. If the telephone has not been registered before, you receive a New Set message. Enter the information, as prompted. The following table describes the values for each display parameter. For more information see, Registering the telephone to the system (page 17)

IP Audio Conference Phone 2033

The IP Audio Conference Phone 2033 provides audio conferencing with a keypad that provides many of the set features of the basic Business Series telephones without display or memory buttons. The audio conference phone includes three microphones, and installation instructions.

Analog devices

BCM450 supports analog telephones (single-line telephones), cordless telephones, fax machines, answering machines, and modems (with a maximum speed of 28.8 kbit/s).

You must install an analog station media bay module (ASM8, ASM8+, or GASM) for analog devices (see Analog station media bay module (page 22)). To connect a standard analog voice device or data communication device to the BCM system through a digital station module, you must install an ATA2 (see Analog terminal adapter (page 23)).

Analog station media bay module

You can connect a maximum of eight analog telecommunication devices to the analog station media bay modules (ASM8, ASM8+, and GASM). Analog devices include standard analog telephones, cordless telephones, fax machines, answering machines, or modems. The maximum speed for a modem connection is 28.8 kbit/s.

The ASM8 is available in North America only; the ASM8+ and GASM8 are available in North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Poland.

In addition to ASM8 features, the ASM8+ and GASM offer the following features:

•Visual Message Waiting Indicator (VMWI) LED indicates to the end user that a message is waiting.

•Disconnect supervision (Open Switch Interval [OSI] according to EIA/TIA 464) indicates to the attached device, in an established communication, that the connected device must release the call.

Attention: When disconnect occurs from the central office (CO), the ASM8+ provides an OSI 850 ms (TIA/EIA 464 section 5.4.10.2.4; minimum is 600 ms) to the off-hook station of as a disconnect signal. If the station remains on-hook after the disconnect signal, the ASM8+ disconnects the station equipment from the network without returning a tone (TIA/EIA 464 section 5.4.10.2.5[1]). After the station equipment goes on-hook, the ASM8+ station interface restores to on-hook (idle). You must ensure that the device, application, or interface card connected to an ASM8+ station interface conform to these on-hook and off-hook conditions.

•Caller ID provides the name, phone number, and other information about the caller to the end user at the start of the call.

•Firmware downloading capability allows the system to upgrade the ASM8+ and GASM firmware at customer sites.

•Enhanced ringing capability ASM8+ and GASM provide a ringing voltage of two REN/65 V rms per port.

•GASM8 is designated as an on-premise station (OPS) port.

The ASM8, ASM8+, and GASM each have one RJ-21 connector on the faceplate.

Figure 1 GASM faceplate LEDs and connectors

The ringer equivalency number (REN) per port for ASM8 is 1; the REN for ASM8+ and GASM is 2.

Attention: The termination of the analog interface can consist of any combination of devices, subject only to the requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the devices does not exceed the REN of the interface to which the device is connected.

Analog terminal adapter

The analog terminal adapter 2 (ATA2) or ATA connects a standard analog voice device or data communication device to the BCM450 system through a digital station module. Examples of analog voice devices include analog telephones and answering machines. Examples of analog data communication devices include modems and fax machines.

The ATA2 provides on-premise service only (protected plan wiring only).

The following figure shows an installation overview for connecting an analog device or analog data device through an ATA2 to the BCM450 main unit.

26 Device compatibility and installation requirements

ISDN uses existing analog telephone wires to multiplex data into separate digital channels, which increases bandwidth.

ISDN uses a single transport to carry multiple information types. Where you once required separate networks for voice, data, images, or video conferencing, it now combines into one common high-speed transport.

Analog versus ISDN

ISDN offers significantly higher bandwidth and speed than analog transmission because of its end-to-end digital connectivity on all transmission circuits. Digitalization allows ISDN lines to provide higher quality signaling than analog POTS lines, and ISDN out-of band data channel signaling offers faster call set up and tear down.

While an analog line carries only a single transmission at a time, an ISDN line can carry one or more voice, data, fax, and video transmissions simultaneously.

An analog modem that operates at 14.4 kbyte/s takes 4.5 minutes to transfer a 1MB data file and a 28.8K modem takes about half that time. If you use one channel of an ISDN line, the transfer time reduces to 1 minute; if you use two ISDN channels, transfer time reduces to 30 seconds.

When you transmit data, the connect time for an average ISDN call is three seconds per call, compared to 21 seconds for the average analog modem call.

Types of ISDN service

Two types of ISDN services (lines) are available: Basic Rate Interface (BRI) and Primary Rate Interface (PRI). Each line consists of separate channels, known as B and D channels, that transmit information simultaneously.

•BRI: known as 2B+D because it consists of two B-channels and one D- channel.

•PRI: known as 23B+D (in North America) or 30B+D (in Europe). In North America, 23B+D consists of 23 B-channels and one D channel (T1 carrier). In Europe, 30B+D consists of 30 B-channels and one D-channel (E1 carrier).

B-channels B-channels are bearer channels used to carry voice or data information at speeds of 64 kbyte/s. As each ISDN link (BRI or PRI) includes more than one B-channel, a user can perform more than one transmission at the same time using a single ISDN link.

D-channels The standard signaling protocol transmits over a dedicated data channel called the D-channel. The D-channel carries call setup and feature activation information to the destination and includes speeds of 16 kbyte/s

(BRI) and 64 kbyte/s PRI. Data information consists of control and signal information. For BRI only, data information also consists of packet switched data, such as credit card verification.

ISDN layers

ISDN layers refer to the standards established to guide the manufacturers of ISDN equipment, based on the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model. The layers include both physical connections, such as wiring, and logical connections, which are programmed in computer software.

When equipment is designed to the ISDN standard for one of the layers, it works with equipment for the layers above and below it. The following three layers work in ISDN for BCM450; to support ISDN service, all three layers must work properly:

•Layer 1: A physical connection that supports fundamental signaling passed between the ISDN network (your service provider) and the BCM450 system. When the LED on a BRI S/T media bay module configured as BRI becomes lit, Layer 1 is functioning.

•Layer 2: A logical connection between the central office or the far end and the BCM450 system. Without Layer 2, call processing is not possible.

•Layer 3: A logical connection between the ISDN network (your service provider) and the BCM450 system. For BRI lines, call processing and service profile identifier (SPID) information exchanges in Layer 3. This controls which central office services are available to the connection. For example, you can program a network connection to carry data calls.

Attention: Service profile identifiers (SPIDs) are a part of the BRI National ISDN standard. SPIDs are not used in the ETSI BRI standard or on PRI.

ISDN bearer capability

Bearer capability describes the transmission standard used by the BRI or PRI line so it can work within a larger ISDN hardware and software network.

The bearer capability for BRI and PRI is voice/speech, 3.1 kHz audio (fax), and data (unrestricted 64 kbyte/s, restricted 64 kbyte/s or 56 kbyte/s).

Services and features for ISDN BRI and PRI

As part of an ISDN digital network, your system supports enhanced capabilities and features, that include:

•fast call set up and tear down

•high-quality voice transmission

•dial-up Internet and local area network (LAN) access

•access to public protocols

PRI services and features

The services and features provided over PRI lines include

•Call-by-call service selection (NI protocol)

•Emergency 911 dialing and internal extension number transmission

•access to Meridian 1 private networking (SL-1 protocol)

BRI services and features

The services and features provided over BRI lines include

•data transmission at speeds up to 128 kbyte/s per loop (depending on the bandwidth supported by your service provider)

•shared digital lines for voice and data ISDN terminal equipment

BCM450 BRI also support D-channel packet service between a network and terminal connection. This allows you to add applications, such as point-of-sale terminals (POSTA), without additional network connections. If you connect a POSTA, it allows transaction terminals (devices where you swipe credit or debit cards) to transmit information using the D-channel of the BRI line, while the B-channels of the BRI line remain available for voice and data calls. A special adapter links transaction equipment (such as cash registers, credit card verification rigs, and point-of-sale terminals) to the X.25 network, which is a data communications network designed to transmit information in the form of small data packets.

To support the D-packet service, your ISDN network and financial institution must include a D-packet handler. To convert the protocol used by the transaction equipment to the X.25 protocol, your ISDN network must also include an integrated X.25 PAD which works with the following versions of the X.25 network: Datapac 32011, CCITT, T3POS, ITT and API. The ISDN service package you order must include D-packet service (for example, Package P in the United States; Microlink with D-channel in Canada).

Your service provider supplies a Terminal Endpoint Identifier (TEI) and DN to support D-packet service. The TEI is a number between 00 and 63 (in Canada, the default range is 21-63). Your service provider can also supply you with a DN to program your D-packet device. The DN for D-packet service becomes part of the dialing string used by the D-packet to call the packet handler.
