Product description
Overview
Product information
The IP telephone optiPoint 300 basic is a modern multi-function
telephone set. It is designed to be connected to a data network,
and it is not directly connected with an ISDN system or to the
PSTN.
Y ou can use the optiP oint 300 basic in the same wa y as you would
use a normal telephone – the only difference being that you’re
making it via a data network. The telephone is equipped with an
Ethernet interface so that when using the TCP/IP protocol, you
can make the telephone calls both via your own intranet and via
the worldwide internet. Its conformity to international standards
such as H.323 makes it possible to use this telephone for video
conferences via a LAN. The optiPoint 300 basic supports other
standard protocols, optimizing data and voice transmission and
simplifying the associated network administration task. It is f or e xample possible to download updates of equipment software or extended features to the optiPoint 300 basic via an FTP server.
The optiPoint 300 basic is provided with a one-line display and
special function keys enabling a user-friendly operation. Thanks to
its advanced features, it can be customised to meet most user requirements.

Installation
This chapter tells you how to connect the components of the optiPoint 300 basic telephone to one another prior to use.
Connecting the telephone to a LAN and configuring it for proper
operation are tasks of the network administrator. They are described in the chapter entitled "Configuration and administration".
Administrators who wish to install and configure IP phone telephony devices via a web interf ace will find detailed informations in the
chapter entitled "The web pages".
Preparing the telephone
To connect the telephone components, proceed as follows.
Installation
The two cable ends of the handset cord are equipped
with identical four-pin Western plugs (RJ 11).
Latch the Western plug of the handset cord in the handset
●
receptacle ("short" end).
Latch the other end of the cord in the receptacle (3) on the
●
bottom of the telephone ("long" end).
Feed the cord through the guide channel in the base unit.
●
●
Latch the LAN cord with the eight-pin Western plug (RJ 45) in
the receptacle (2) on the bottom of the telephone, and connect with LAN.
●
Feed the LAN cord through the guide channel in the base unit.
18
Installation
Latch the four-pin (red) Western plug (RJ 11) of the power
●
supply unit cord in the receptacle (1) on the bottom of the telephone.
Feed the power supply unit cord through the guide channel in
●
the base unit.
The Western plugs of all cable connections must
audibly snap into place.
Integrating the telephone into the communication environment
Like all terminal equipment connected to a LAN, the optiPoint 300
basic must have an IP address assigned. The procedure for setting up the network environment for the telephone is described below. Note that the optiPoint 300 basic can operate with a HiPath
5500/ 5300, but this is not mandatory.
If you have any questions concerning the LAN environment or the
terminology used, contact your network administrator.
Loading the application software
When the optiPoint 300 basic telephone is connected to power, it
automatically boots up, i.e. loads and executes the application
software. During the boot phase you will see three dashes scrolling across the display, from left to right:
– – –
If the boot phase cannot be completed successfully (because of
missing or defective application software), you will see:
b00t FA1LEd
In such a case, please ask your network administrator or call the
service.
After the boot phase, the telephone checks whether it is configured to automatically load basic settings from a DHCP server. If it
is, the boot process continues as described in “HiPath system with
DHCP server” on page 20. If it is not set to load settings from a
DHCP server, the boot process continues as described in “HiPath
system without DHCP server” on page 21.
19
HiPath system with DHCP server
The optiPoint 300 basic telephone comes with factory settings that
enable it to get an IP address automatically from the DHCP server, once it is connected to a LAN.
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
When the settings cannot be successfully downloaded from a
DHCP server, the error message “No IP” is displayed. Press the
Service key and switch the telephone to manual IP assignment as
described in “IP assignment by DHCP” on page 50. Then contin ue
as described in “HiPath system without DHCP server” on page 21.
When the settings have been received correctly, you will be asked
to make some additional settings, as shown here:

Incoming call
An incoming call will be indicated by the ringer tone and by the display. If the optiPoint 300 basic is in idle mode, you will hear the
ringer and the display will show the caller's identification. Up to 20
digits can be displayed, so if the caller's number is longer than
this, only the last 20 places will be shown. If the caller has restricted calling line identification (CLIR), your unit will display the relevant symbol instead of the number.
If there is an incoming call and "CW" is off while the optiPoint 300
basic is in programming mode or service mode, the caller will hear
a busy signal. The programming or service in progress will not be
affected.

Alternately, you may turn down the new call offer, in which case
the existing connection remains the active one. In this case the
new caller will hear a busy signal.
While you are on the line speaking to your first caller, the active
