Installation Manual 15

1.1 System Highlights

1.1 System Highlights

1.1.1 System Highlights

Networking Features

The Hybrid IP-PBX supports the following private networking features:

TIE Line Service

PBXs can be connected via a privately leased telephone lines forming a private network. These "TIE
lines" provide a cost-effective way to route calls and communications, and are often used to connect
corporate offices located in different cities.

QSIG Support

TIE line service can be used on a private network that implements the QSIG protocol (Q.931). QSIG
offers TIE line service as well as advanced caller and called party identification features.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Network

The Hybrid-IP PBX can be used on a private network which implements VoIP. On this type of network,
information is sent over the private network in IP packets, which allows voice as well as data to be sent
to other devices in the private network.

Built-in Small Call Center Features

Extensions can form an incoming call distribution (ICD) group and be used as a small call center which can
take advantage of several features, some of which are highlighted below.

Queuing

When all available extensions in an ICD group are busy, additional calls can be placed in a queue as
they arrive. While calls are waiting in the queue, callers can hear background music (BGM), an outgoing
message (OGM), etc.

Log-in/Log-out

Members of an ICD group can log-in to or log-out of a group manually. Group members can log-in at
the beginning of a work shift, and log-out at the end of the day. While logged-in, ICD group members
can be allotted a specified amount of time after completing a call during which new calls will not be
received by their extensions, allowing them to finish any necessary paperwork before being eligible to
receive new calls (Wrap-up).

VIP Call

The VIP Call feature is one method of making sure that calls from preferred customers or callers are
answered quickly. When using VIP Call mode, ICD groups are assigned a priority, allowing calls in
higher-priority groups to be answered before calls in lower-priority groups.

Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) Features

Computers can be connected to the Hybrid-IP PBX to provide extension users with access to advanced
features such as pop-up display of caller information, computer-based speed dialing, etc.

PC Phone/PC Console

These Panasonic CTI applications can be used on computers connected to each extension, providing
their respective extension users with powerful and flexible call handling and display features.

16 Installation Manual

1.1 System Highlights

Third Party CTI Applications

The Hybrid IP-PBX supports industry standard protocols, allowing third-party CTI applications to be
integrated with the Hybrid-IP PBX and its extensions.

Voice Mail Features

A Voice Processing System (VPS) can be connected to the Hybrid IP-PBX to provide Voice Mail (VM) and
Automated Attendant (AA) services. A Panasonic VPS which supports DPT (Digital) Integration can be
connected to the Hybrid IP-PBX effortlessly and with minimal setup required. Conventional DTMF (analog)
voice mail systems, including those from other manufacturers, are also supported.

Paralleled Telephone Features

By connecting telephones in parallel, you can increase the number of telephones connected to the Hybrid­IP PBX without adding additional extension cards.

Parallel Mode

An SLT can be connected to an APT or DPT which is connected to a Super Hybrid Port of the Hybrid­IP PBX. The SLT shares the same extension number with the APT or DPT.

EXtra Device Port (XDP) Mode

An SLT can be connected to a DPT which is connected to a Super Hybrid Port of the Hybrid-IP PBX.
Unlike parallel mode, XDP mode allows each telephone to act as an independent extension with its own
extension number.

Digital XDP

A DPT can be connected to another DPT which is connected to a DPT port or a Super Hybrid Port of
the Hybrid-IP PBX. Similar to XDP mode, each DPT acts as an independent extension with its own
extension number.

Portable Station (PS) Features

A Panasonic PS can be used in place of a PT to provide wireless access to PBX features and call handling.
When in Wireless XDP Parallel Mode, a PS can share an extension number with a wired telephone, allowing
extension users to use their PSs when they are away from their desks to answer or make calls as if they
were using their wired telephones.

Hospitality Features

This Hybrid IP-PBX has several features that support its use in a hotel-type environment. Extensions
corresponding to guest rooms can be "checked in" or "checked out" by a designated hotel operator, who can
also check or set wake-up calls.

Wiring Precautions

Be sure to follow these instructions when wiring the unit:

1. Do not run unshielded telephone cables near AC power cables, computer cables, AC power sources,

etc. When running cables near other noise-generating devices or cables, use shielded telephone
cables or shield the telephone cables with metal tubing.

2. If cables are run on the floor, use protectors to prevent the cables from being stepped on. Avoid running

cables under carpets.

3. Avoid using the same AC outlet for computers, telexes, and other office equipment, as noise generated

by such equipment may hamper system performance or interrupt the system.

30 Installation Manual

2.1 Before Installation

4. Use 2-pair telephone cables when connecting PTs.

Use 1-pair telephone cables when connecting SLTs, data terminals, answering machines, computers,
Voice Processing Systems, etc.

5. Unplug the system from its power source when wiring, and plug the system back in only after all wiring

is completed.

6. Mis-wiring may cause the Hybrid IP-PBX to operate improperly. Refer to Section 2 "Installation" when

wiring the system.

7. If an extension does not operate properly, disconnect the telephone from the extension line and connect

it again, or turn off the Hybrid IP-PBX using power switch then turn it on again.

8. For safety purposes this unit is equipped with a grounded plug. If you do not have a grounded outlet,

please have one installed. Do not bypass this safety feature by tampering with the plug.

9. Use twisted pair cable for CO line connection.

10. CO lines should be installed with surge protectors. For details, refer to "2.2.10 Surge Protector

Installation".

11. To assure good quality telephone connection, it is recommended new and modifications to existing

installation of customer premise wiring shall use solid twisted pair copper conductors with minimum 24
gauge that comply with the electrical specifications for Category 3 wiring as detailed in ANSI/EIA/TIA­570A Building Wiring Standards.

2. Insert a grounding wire (user-supplied)*.

3. Tighten the screw.

4. Connect the grounding wire to ground.

Grounding

wire

To ground

* For grounding wire, green-and-yellow insulation is required, and the cross-sectional area of the

conductor must be more than 0.75 mm

• Be sure to comply with applicable local regulations (e.g., law, guidelines).

• Proper grounding (connection to ground) is very important to protect the Hybrid IP-PBX from the bad

effects of external noise or to reduce the risk to the user of electrocution in the case of a lightning strike.

• The ground wire of the AC cable has an effect against external noise and lightning strikes, but it may
not be enough to protect the Hybrid IP-PBX. A permanent connection between ground and the ground
terminal of the Hybrid IP-PBX must be made.

In most of the continental United States, the ground provided by the "Third wire ground" at the commercial
power outlet will be satisfactory. However, in a small percentage of cases this ground may be installed
incorrectly. Therefore, the following test procedure should be performed.

2

or 18 AWG.

Test Procedure

1. Obtain a suitable voltmeter and set it for a possible reading of up to 250 V AC.

2. Connect the meter probes between the 2 main AC voltage points on the wall outlet. The reading

obtained should be 108 V AC to 132 V AC.

3. Move one of the meter probes to the 3rd prong terminal (GND).

Either the same reading or a reading of 0 volt should be obtained.

4. If a reading of 0 volt at one terminal and a reading of 108 V AC to 132 V AC at the other terminal

is not obtained, the outlet is not properly grounded.
This condition should be corrected by a qualified electrician (per article 250 of the National
Electrical Code).

5. If a reading of 0 volt at one terminal and a reading of 108 V AC to 132 V AC at the other terminal

is obtained, then set the meter to the "OHMS/RX1" scale, place one probe at the GND Terminal
and the other probe at the terminal which gave a reading of 0 volt.
A reading of less than 1 ohm should be obtained. If the reading is not obtained, the outlet is not
adequately grounded. See qualified electrician.

2.2.10 Surge Protector Installation

Overview

A massive electrical surge can be caused if lightning strikes a telephone cable 10 m (33 ft) above ground,
or if a telephone line comes into contact with a power line. A surge protector is a device that is connected
to a CO line to prevent potentially dangerous electrical surges from entering the building via the CO line and
damaging the Hybrid IP-PBX and connected equipment.

To protect the system from electrical surges, we strongly recommend connecting the system to a surge
protector that meets the following specifications:

• Surge arrestor type: 3-electrode arrestor

• DC spark-over voltage: 230 V

• Maximum peak current: at least 10 kA

Additionally, proper grounding is very important for the protection of the system (refer to "2.2.5 Frame
Ground Connection").

Many countries/areas have regulations requiring surge protection. Be sure to comply with all applicable
laws, regulations, and guidelines.

2.7.2 Procedure Overview

When connecting the wireless system, use extreme care to conduct a site survey. Inadvertent site survey
can result in poor service area, frequent noise, and disconnection of calls.

1. Investigate the installation site

Refer to "2.7.3 Site Planning".

a. Obtain the map of the CS installation site.
b. Consider the service area demanded by the user on the map.
c. Plan the locations of each CS, taking account of distance, building materials and etc.

2. Prepare the CS for site survey

Refer to "2.7.4 Before Site Survey".

a. Assign a CS number to each CS by setting the DIP switches on the back of the CS.
b. Supply electricity to each CS using an AC adaptor or a battery box.
c. Install each CS temporarily as planned.

Notes

• Install at least 2 m (6 ft 7 in) above the floor.

• Keep the antennas in the upright position.

3. Conduct the site survey

Refer to "2.7.5 Site Survey".

a. Test the radio signal strength using the PS.

Confirm that the radio signal strength level is "12" near the CS.

2.7.3 Site Planning

Choosing the best site for the CS requires careful planning and testing of essential areas. The best location
may not always be convenient for installation. Read the following information before installing the unit.

Understanding the Radio Waves

Characteristics of Radio Waves

The transmission of radio waves and the CS coverage area depend on the structure and materials of the
building.

Office equipment, such as computers and fax machines, can interfere with radio waves. Such equipment
may create noise or interfere with the performance of the PS.

The illustration below shows the special transmitting patterns of radio waves.

1. Radio waves are reflected by objects such as those made of metal.

2. Radio waves are diffracted by objects such as metallic columns.

3. Radio waves penetrate objects such as those made of glass.

CS

1. Reflection

Column

2. Diffraction

3. Penetration

Relationships Between Radio Waves and Building Structure and Materials

• The CS coverage area is affected more by the building materials and their thickness than the number
of obstacles.

• Radio waves tend to be reflected or diffracted by conductive objects and rarely penetrate them.

• Radio waves tend to penetrate insulated objects and are rarely reflected by them.

• Radio waves penetrate thin objects more than thick objects.

• The table below shows the transmission tendency of radio waves when they reach objects made from

various materials.

2.7 Connection of 2.4 GHz Portable Stations

Object Material Transmission Tendency

Wall Concrete The thicker they are, the less radio waves penetrate them.

Ferroconcrete Radio waves can penetrate them, but the more iron there is,

the more radio waves are reflected.

Window Glass Radio waves usually penetrate them.

Glass with wire nets Radio waves can penetrate them, but tend to be reflected.

Glass covered with
heat-resistant film

Radio waves are weakened considerably when they penetrate
windows.

Floor Ferroconcrete Radio waves can penetrate them, but the more iron there is,

the more radio waves are reflected.

Partition Steel Radio waves are reflected and rarely penetrate them.

Plywood, Glass Radio waves usually penetrate them.

Column Ferroconcrete Radio waves can penetrate them, but the more iron there is,

the more radio waves tend to be reflected or diffracted.

Metal Radio waves tend to be reflected or diffracted.

Cabinet Steel Radio waves are usually reflected or diffracted, and rarely

penetrate them.

Wood Radio waves can penetrate them, but they are weakened.

Site Survey Preparation

1. Obtain the map and investigate the installation site.
a. Check the obstacles (e.g., shelves, columns, and partitions).
b. Check the materials of the structures (e.g., metal, concrete, and plywood).
c. Check the layout and dimensions of the room, corridor, etc.
d. Write down the above information to the map.

2. Examine the service area demanded by the user on the map, referring to the following example.
a. Draw the coverage area around a CS. Extend the coverage area to 30 to 60 meters (98 to 197 feet)

in one direction, depending on the materials of the building structures and obstacles in the
installation site. Note that a CS cannot be installed outside a building.

b. If one CS cannot cover the entire service area, install additional CSs as required. Overlap the

coverage areas of adjacent CSs.
Where CS coverage areas overlap, the PS will start call handover to the next CS if the signal from

92 Installation Manual

one CS becomes weak. However, if a PS moves away from a CS and there are no CSs available
for handover, the PS may go out of range and the call could be lost.
If the signal from the CS fades, due to the structure of the building, there may be some handover
delay. The user will hear a range warning before handover in this case. This also applies in the case
of interference from 2.4 GHz apparatus.

Example: Installing in a Room Separated by Walls

Things to take note of:

• The room is separated by walls.

• The room is surrounded by concrete walls.

CS installation plan:

• The coverage area of each CS will not extend as far as when there is no obstacle, because the
radio signals will be weakened by separating walls. Therefore, you will need 5 CSs to cover the
entire room.
