Below shows a brief hardware connection for executing VoIP function.

1.Connect a telephone handset (or fax machine) to the Phone1 port and another telephone handset to Phone2 port (optional) on the wireless IAD separately by using phone cables.

2.Use a phone cable to connect PSTN port on the wireless IAD to the Phone port on the splitter.

3.Use a phone cable to connect DSL port on the wireless IAD to the Modem port on the splitter.

4.Connect the telephone line from the wall outlet to the Line port of the splitter.
