DBC 422 AND DBC 425
31531-DBC 422 02 Uen B3 2013-12-02
1 General
These installation instructions are valid for the IP phones DBC 422, also
called Dialog 4422 and for DBC 425, also called Dialog 4425.
These telephones use the H.323 protocol.
1.1 Scope
These IP phones can be connected to a number of Aastra’s PBXes or
equivalent.
Connected to MX-ONE TSW (ASB 501 04)
These IP phones are connected via a LAN to the IP device board
IPLU/ELU32. The board together with the system software works as a
gatekeeper, providing address translation, bandwidth management,
admission control and call control.
A limited number of IP terminals can be registered towards each
IPLU/ELU32 board. For capacity see the installation planning for IP
EXTENSION.
Figure 1: Connection of the IP phone towards MX-ONE TSW (ASB 501
04)

1531-DBC 422 02 Uen B3 2013-12-02 4
GENERAL
A password for each IP extension can be initiated in the exchange. The
password is used to check that the user is allowed to log on with the
entered extension number.
ASB 501 04 has support for automatic gatekeeper discovery, which
means that the IP address to the gatekeeper (IPLU/ELU32 board) is
retrieved automatically in the IP phone.
Connected to MX-ONE TSE
The figure below shows a typical setup for the MX-ONE Telephony
Server.
Figure 2: Typical MX-ONE Telephony Server setup
Connected to BusinessPhone
These IP phones can be used together with BusinessPhone version 7 or
later.
Connected to MD Evolution
These IP phones can be used together with MD Evolution version 8 or
later

1.2 Environmental requirements
The products covered in these installation instructions comply with the
prerequisites stipulated for placing appliances in office and exchange
room environments.
2 Aids
Wall mounting requires additional screws and spacers, 7.50 Wall
mounting of the IP phone on page 88
3 Preparations
Check that an Ethernet cable is available and verify that it is possible to
connect to the LAN.
4 Power equipment
The IP phone can either be powered from a 24 V AC/AC adapter or from
a power hub. If it is powered from an adapter the following alternatives
exist:
• RES 141 312/1 for the EU market except for the UK (230 V)
• RES 141 314/1 for the UK market (230 V)
• RES 141 318/1 for the 110 V markets
For other markets the AC/AC adapter is locally sourced. The phone can
also be powered with 24-48 Volts DC.
Power consumption: 2.6 W (only the phone) and 4 W with the AC/AC
adapter included. An extra key panel requires 0.03 W.
As an alternative the IP phone can be powered via the LAN from a power
hub. The phone supports the standard IEEE 802.3AF for power over
LAN.

1531-DBC 422 02 Uen B3 2013-12-02 6
EARTHING/GROUNDING
These phones comply with the power class signature. The phone reports
power class 1 which means less than 4 W required.
5 Earthing/grounding
No special earthing or grounding is needed.
The IP phone needs a shielded Ethernet cable for the network connec-
tion.

DBC 422 AND DBC 425

6 Cabling
The maximum line length between an IP phone and the LAN is 100
metres (328 feet) according to IEEE 802.3. Category 5 cables are
recommended.
The following Ethernet category 5 cable can be ordered from Aastra:
• TSR 901 0452/3000
The figure shows where all the cables are to be connected in the bottom
of the phone.

7.1 How to start a new phone
To select the protocol, 7.6 Select H.323 protocol on page 21.
Connect one end of the network cable to the network outlet and the other
end to the connector marked LINE on the bottom of the IP phone. 6
Cabling on page 7.
If there is no LAN connection the text No connection to the network is
shown in the display.
This section is divided into one part if a DHCP server is used, 7.3.1

into one part if fixed IP addresses are to be used 7.3.2 Manually setting
of the fixed IP addresses on page 18.
7.2 Starting a DBC 422 phone
7.2.1 Starting a phone in a LAN with a DHCP server
This section describes the procedure when the phone will use IP
addresses provided by a DHCP server.
After power up of the IP phone the LED at the mute key will be lit for a
couple of seconds. Then the display will show:
Figure 4:
The xindicates a timer counting down seconds.
If the system administrator wants to change the IP settings, the admin-
istrator mode must be entered before the timer x is counted down to
zero. If no procedure for the administrator mode is entered, or if the
Speaker -key is pressed, the phone will use the current stored settings
and continue with the menu LAN access control.
If the procedure for administrator mode is entered, the following menu
appears:

Figure 5:
Verify that the DHCP parameter is set to Yes, otherwise press the
Speaker key and change the value to Yes.
Normally the phone gets the IP address to the SW server automatically
from DHCP option 43 or from DNS SRV records. Step down in the
Network menu list and check that the parameter for Auto SW Server is
set to Yes.
A number of more IP settings can be done. For a complete survey of all
menus in the Network settings, see 7.34.4 Change IP settings in DBC
422 on page 70.
Use the C-key to leave the settings menu and continue the boot
sequence.
If LAN access control according to IEEE802.1x is enabled in the LAN,
the following menu appears:
Figure 6:
Enter the LAN access control user identity and press the Speaker key.

The phone fetches the own IP address and other data from the DHCP
server, see 7.11.2 Data from DHCP on page 30.
Then the following menu is shown:
Figure 9:
The phone fetches the configuration file from the SW server. If the phone
cannot get the file from the SW-server, it will use the one that is already
stored in the local memory.
The phone checks for new software. If the software will be updated
continue to 7.3.3 Update of the software in the IP phone on page 19.
Otherwise the following menus are shown:

The next step is to set the IP address to the gatekeeper. To set the IP
address to the gatekeeper in H.323, see 7.14 Gatekeeper address on
page 46.
If a password or Personal Identification Number (PIN) is to be used for
this extension number, the password must be initiated in the exchange.
In the start up sequence for the phone, the next menu is:
