2.3 Setting up the VoIP Zone Controller

Chassis
ground

Before you set up the VoIP Zone Controller, be sure that you have received all the parts described in

Section 2.1, "Parts List".

2.3.1 Connect to the Power Source

To use PoE, plug a Cat 5 Ethernet cable from the VoIP Zone Controller Ethernet port to your
network. As an alternative to PoE, you can plug one end of a +48V DC power supply into the VoIP
Zone Controller, and plug the other end into a receptacle. If required, connect the earth grounding
wire to the chassis ground on the back of the unit.

CyberData Corporation 930109C VoIP Zone Controller 4-Port Audio Out Operations Guide

When you plug in the Ethernet cable or power supply:

● The round, blue Status light on the front of the VoIP Zone Controller comes on indicating that

the power is on. Once the device has been initialized, this light blinks at one second intervals.

● The square, green Link light above the Ethernet port indicates that the network connection has

been established. The Link light changes color to confirm the auto-negotiated baud rate:

• This light is yellow at 10 Mbps.

• It is orange at 100 Mbps.

● The green Paging light comes on after the device is booted and initialized. This light blinks

when a page is in progress.

The square, yellow Act light blinks when there is network activity.
