Introduction

Many third-party applications require serial port interfaces to provide a connection to a PBX. As well, support staff traditionally use serial ports to connect maintenance terminals and modems to a system for maintenance. As the CS 1000E Call Server provides only two local serial ports for these purposes, an IP-based Terminal Server is required to provide the necessary standard serial ports for applications.

As the Terminal Server is configured to automatically log in to the active Call Server upon start-up, only one Terminal Server is required for the system. It can be located anywhere on the LAN. One connection from each Call Server COM1 port is connected to the Terminal Server.
