1Connect one end of the handset cord to the handset jack (identified with a handset icon) on the back of the telephone. Connect the other end to the jack on the handset.
2Choose one of the following connections:
•For an IP Phone not sharing LAN access with a PC, connect one end of the CAT5 line cable to the LAN Ethernet port (identified by a LAN icon) located on the back of the phone. Plug the other end of the CAT5 line cable into the IP network.
•For an IP Phone sharing LAN access with a PC, connect one end of the CAT5 line cable to the LAN Ethernet port (identified by a LAN icon) located on the back of the phone, and the other end to the IP network. Insert a second CAT5 line cable into the PC Ethernet port located on the back of the phone (identified by a PC icon) and the other end into the computer Ethernet port.
