Important information
Location of the telephone
•The telephone should be operated in a controlled environment with an
ambient temperature between 5°C and 40°C.
•To ensure good speakerphone quality (OpenStage 20/20 G only), the
area in front of the microphone (front right) should be kept clear. The
optimum speakerphone distance is 50 cm.
•Do not install the telephone in a room where large quantities of dust
accumulate; this can considerably reduce the service life of the telephone.
•Do not expose the telephone to direct sunlight or any other source of
heat, as this is liable to damage the electronic components and the
plastic casing.
•Do not operate the telephone in damp environments such as bathrooms.

OpenStage 20 E/20 has a built-in 10/100 Mbps Ethernet switch. The
OpenStage 20 G has a 1000 Mbps Ethernet switch.This means that you
can connect a PC to the LAN directly via the phone. The telephone-PC connection option must first be activated on the telephone by administrator.
Using this connection option saves one network port for each switch used
and requires fewer or shorter network cables when arranged correctly.
