Power Connection
. Connect the power cord supplied with your MultiVOIP to
a live AC outlet and to the power connector on the back of the MultiVOIP.
3.
VOIP-to-Network Connection
. Connect a network cable (RJ45-to-RJ45) to
the
WAN
connector on the back of the MultiVOIP. Connect the other end of
the cable to your network. The MultiVOIP’s default IP address is
192.168.2.1.
4.
Computer-to-Network Connection
. Connect a network cable (RJ45-to-
RJ45) between your LAN/WAN network and the control computer that you
will use to configure/control the MultiVOIP. The control computer’s IP
address must be set so that the first three octets of the IP address match
those of the MultiVOIP (192.168.2.x).
5.
Telephony Connection
. Connect a 50-conductor cable (RJ21-to-RJ21)
between the MultiVOIP’s TELECOM receptacle and your telephone
equipment. The MultiVOIP requires a male RJ-21 connector. Secure the RJ-
21 connector to the TELECOM receptacle with a screw (which is typically
built into the connector) and use the hold-down device to secure the cable to
the back panel of the MultiVOIP unit. The gender of the RJ-21 connector on
the other end of the cable must fit your telephony equipment. The figure
below shows some typical ways in which the other end of the RJ-21 cable
might be connected.
