INSTALLATION

NOTE: The telephone system referred to in this
manual is the customer premise equipment
such as an electronic key system, a PBX or a
dedicated single line telephone sets. The VIP­811 is not intended for direct or indirect
connection to the public telephone network.
When used with a customer premise telephone
system such as a key system or PBX system,
these units are interfaced to the system via a
fully protected trunk port or system central
office port, which is a fully protected interface
device. Also, the host system must be
configured to disallow central office trunk
conferencing in order to prevent indirect
connection to the public network.
