How To Connect A Phone To The Network And Power

Once the phone is assembled, follow the steps below to get the phone powered up and on the network.

You have two options for network and power connections.

1) AC Power Adapter
2) Data switch with PoE (Power Over Ethernet)



Note: The IP phone should be used with an original power adapter only. The use of the third-party power adapter may cause the damage to the phone. If you are connecting a PC to your phone, we recommend that you use the Ethernet cable provided. If inline power (PoE) is provided from your data switch, you do not need to connect the power adapter.
