Talkswitch 48-CAS, 48-CVAS manual

NETWORKINGTALKSWITCH 48-CAs/48-CVAs

Connect your TalkSwitch 48-CA and/or 48-CVA units to a Local Area Network (LAN)

using one of the following methods:

NOTE: TalkSwitch unit enclosures are not designed for stacking. We recommend

wall-mounting units in a horizontal row to maximize airflow and keep the units from

overheating.

Option #1: EthernetSwitch

We recommend integrating your phone system into your existing LAN or running

TalkSwitch on its own LAN with an Ethernet switch. A switch provides direct commu-

nication between TalkSwitch units, thus keeping the TalkSwitch voice over LAN data

isolated from other data on the network.

Step A

Connect up to four TalkSwitch 48-CA and/or 48-CVA units (2 are shown here) to the

LAN switch.

Step B

Make sure a computer is connected to the phone system either via the LAN or directly

from the computer to the TalkSwitch through the USB or Serial port.
