Installing your IP Phone 1230

Connecting the LAN Ethernet cable

Note: Your IP Phone 1230 supports both AC power and PoE options, including IEEE 802.3 standard power. To use local AC power, you can order the optional AC adapter separately. To use PoE, where power is delivered over the CAT5 cable, the LAN must support PoE, and you do not need an AC adapter.

Connect your IP Phone to your LAN using a CAT5e Ethernet cable to enable full functionality of your IP Phone. If your Ethernet port is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE), your IP Phone can be powered through the LAN port. Do not extend the LAN Ethernet cable outside the building.

1.Plug one end of the supplied LAN Ethernet cable into the LAN Ethernet port on the back of your IP Phone marked with the % symbol.

2.Thread the cable through the channel in the foot stand.

3.Connect the other end of the cable to your LAN Ethernet connection. The LAN LED on the back of the IP Phone lights when a LAN connection is established.

4.Connect the other end of the cable to your LAN Ethernet connection. The LAN LED on the back of the IP Phone lights when a LAN connection is established.

Figure 4 on page 34 shows the connections on the back of the IP Phone.
