Installing telephones and peripherals

This section describes how to install telephones and peripherals.

You can add telephones and peripherals before or after you initialize your system. Telephone configuration is determined by which station media bay module (MBM) you are using.

The BCM50 system creates default settings for the telephone DN records when it is first initialized. The settings are based on which telephony profile you chose. To change these settings, use the Element Manager application. Specific instructions for configuring telephone operation through Element Manager are contained in the BCM50 Device Configuration Guide (N0027146).

Note: For detailed information on installing various telephones and peripherals, refer to the documentation for your particular telephone or peripheral.

Note: Programming occurs on the telephone when the BCM50 system recognizes the telephone on the system.

Refer to the following sections for information on installing telephones and peripherals:

•“System telephones”

•“Installing an emergency telephone” on page 114

•“Installing IP Phones” on page 115

•“Installing T7406 cordless systems” on page 115

System telephones

The BCM50 system supports a number of analog, digital, IP telephony, and cordless telephones. Refer to “Telephones and adapters” on page 54 for more information on supported telephones.

Analog telephones are supported either through the analog station ports on the main unit, analog station MBMs (ASM), or by connecting to a digital module through an analog terminal adapter 2 (ATA2).

Documentation describing installation and telephone features is supplied with each piece of equipment.

Analog terminal adapter 2

The analog terminal adapter 2 (ATA2) connects a standard analog voice device or data communication device to a digital station connector on the BCM50 system.
