What to plug in

 

 

MUSIC

Plug in a radio, CD player, PC soundcard or any other

 

 

 

device that emits an audio signal if you wish to use the

 

 

 

TalkSwitch Music-on-Hold feature. This is a 1/8" (3.5

 

 

 

mm) phono jack. Mono cables are recommended. If you

 

 

 

have multiple TalkSwitch units on a LAN, you will need

 

 

 

to provide a music source to each TalkSwitch.

 

 

PA

Connect to a P.A. system if you wish to use the external

 

 

 

paging feature. This is a 1/8" (3.5 mm) phono jack.

 

 

 

Mono cables are recommended. If you have multiple

 

 

 

TalkSwitch units on a LAN, you will need to provide a

 

 

 

connection from each TalkSwitch to the PA Amplifier.

 

 

LAN PORT

You can connect to an Ethernet hub using a Category 5

 

 

 

cable with RJ-45 connectors. This will support

 

 

 

configuration across the LAN and Internet and support

 

 

 

VoIP calls. If you have 2, 3 or more TalkSwitch units,

 

 

 

you can ‘network’ them and they will function as a

 

 

 

single system. There are 3 LEDs next to the LAN port. The

 

 

 

top LED is on when the ethernet link is synchronized

 

 

 

with a switch or hub. The middle LED is on when data is

 

 

 

being received and the bottom LED is on when data is

 

 

 

being transmitted.

 

 

E1 – E8

Plug in any analog device that uses a standard (RJ-11)

 

 

 

telephone jack, such as telephones, fax machines, inter-

 

 

 

nal or external PC modems, etc. TalkSwitch identifies

 

 

 

the extensions as 1x1 to 1x8. (x represents the unit ID
