VoIP / SIP Telephones
The following information is of interest when telephoning via the
Forum IPhone 512:
●Brief silences or echoes may occur during some connections. This is due to
the transmission quality of the line and not a functional defect of your
telephone.
●When the telephone is connected to the line or is disconnected from the
line (e.g. when the company network fails), when commissioning the
device, the required terminal software is loaded first (the telephone is
“booting”). This happens automatically and may take a few minutes. The
telephone is ready for operation when the display shows the date/time
and the internal call number. Then you can telephone as you are accustomed.
●When using a connected headset, after accepting a call, you should wait a
second before you begin to speak. This time is necessary for establishing
the connection between yourself and the caller.
Connectors on the Forum IPhone 512
Above the display there are two RJ45 connectors on the back of the device for
connecting a data cable(s). They are labelled LAN and PC. There are two
variants for connecting the Forum IPhone 512 depending on the technical
9
Forum IPhone 512VoIP / SIP Telephones
conditions at your work area. The system administrator will take care of
connecting the telephone for you. In case the lines are disconnected at some
point, you can re-connect it yourself using the following explanation.
Variant 1: The workstation has a network port available.
Insert the network cable into the LAN connector on the telephone, the other
end into the available network port.
Variant 2: The workstation has an available network port; telephone and
PC use this port jointly.
The telephone can be looped into the existing network connection via its LAN
und PC connectors. It is connected as follows in this case: a network cable is
required for connecting the PC and the telephone. This cable is inserted into
the PC connector on the telephone. A second network cable goes from the
telephone to the network port; this cable is inserted into the LAN connector on
the telephone.
The power supply of the telephone can take place via the network line
(“Power over Ethernet”). If the company network has no Power over Ethernet,
the telephone requires a separate power supply via an additional AC adapter
(no. D0023-1051-00-75).
Please note: Never operate the Forum IPhone 512 simultaneously with PoE
and AC adapter!
If you have questions in this regard, desire more information or require help,
contact your system administrator.
Notes for the System Administrator
The “Mounting and Commissioning” guide contains detailed information on
VoIP and how to commission and configure VoIP and SIP telephones.
Please note: For feeds to the Forum IPhone 512, Power over Ethernet
function in accordance with IEEE 802.3af - class 3 standard is
required!
Note:To connect the Forum IPhone 512 to a local network (LAN, Local
Area Network), use a shielded CAT-5 Ethernet line (STP line,
shielded twisted pair line).
