Introduction
TheD-LinkDG-102SHVoIPStationGatewaylinkstraditionaltelephonynetworks
to IP networks with conventional telephony devices such as analog phones or
fax machines. The DG-102SH includes two loop start Foreign Exchange
Subscriber (FXS) that interfaces with normal RJ-11 telephone connectors to
provide voice/fax communication over the IP network. The DG-102SH also
includes two 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports. One Ethernet port is for a DSL/
CableModemorotherWANdevicesand theothermay functionasa connection
to create a home or small office LAN network. The built-in DHCP server/client
and Network Address Translation (NAT) function automatically to assign IP
addresses for LAN users, allowing multiple users to share a single Internet
connection. It can be configured and monitored via the Console, Web browser,
or Telnet and also supports SNMP management.
By routing calls over the Internet or any IP network, this gateway can reduce or
eliminate long distance or inter-office phone charges. Corporations can also
enjoy the benefits of network consolidation and the reduction of leased lines by
relyingonInternetservice providers todelivertoll-qualityvoice communications
over the IP networks.

Getting Started
Identifying External Components
Front Panel
Understanding Indicators
Before configuring your VoIP Gateway, take a few minutes to look over this
section and familiarize yourself with the front panel LED indicators depicted
below.
Power: This LED is lit when the device is receiving power; otherwise, it
is unlit.
Status: This LED will flash quickly when the DG-102SH is either per-
forming a self test or booting up. The LED will remain lit when the system
isreadyfora connection withtheGatekeeper.Itwillremain dark whenthe
system is ready but can not receive an acknowledgement from the
Gatekeeper.
WAN: This LED displays the connection speed, link status, and activity
on the 10/100 dual-speed Ethernet port that is used to connect to your
WAN device (usually a DSL/cable modem).

Identifying External Components
10/100M: This indicator remains unlit when there is no connection, or
the port is operating at 10Mbps through a connection to a 10BASE-T
device. It is lit when the port is operating at 100Mbps through a con-
nection to a dual-speed or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet device.
Link/Act: When a good link to a powered-up, but idle device is de-
tected on a port, this indicator shines steadily. When packets are re-
ceived from the device, the indicator blinks.
Rear Panel
Line: Lights when PSTN line is in use.
Phone 1 to 2: Lights when standard phone port is in use.
Note: If a powered-up device is connected to a port and the port’s Link/Act status
indicator is unlit, the most probable cause is a cabling or connection problem
(for example, wrong cable type or bad contact) or a device malfunction.
LAN: ThisLEDdisplaystheconnectionspeed,linkstatus,andactivity on
the 10/100 dual-speed Ethernet port that is used to connect to your LAN.
10/100M: This indicator remains unlit when there is no connection, or
the port is operating at 10Mbps through a connection to a 10BASE-T
device. It is lit when the port is operating at 100Mbps through a con-
nection to a dual-speed or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet device.
Link/Act: When a good link to a powered-up, but idle device is de-
tected on a port, this indicator shines steadily. When packets are re-
ceived from the device, the indicator blinks.

Identifying External Components
Fast Ethernet LAN: A10/100 dual-speed Ethernet port fitted with an RJ-
45 connector used to connect the VoIP gateway to a LAN device (hub,
switch, PC, etc.). This port accepts Category 5 or higher UTP cabling
with an RJ-45 connector.
Line: RJ-11 phone jack for connecting to a standard telephone wall out-
let through an approved (No. 26AWG or larger) telecommunications line
cord.
Phone 1 to 2: Normal RJ-11 phone jacks used to connect analog (and
digital) telephones and fax machines. Plug your telephone(s) and/or fax
machine directly into any of these jacks.
Installation
When choosing a place to install the VoIP Gateway, please use the following
guidelines:
The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the device.
Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is secured to the AC
power connector.

AC Power Connector: For the included power adapter. Be sure to use
onlythe 12V/1Apower adapter includedwith the product.Using thewrong
power adapter can damage the product and void the warranty.
Diagnostic Port: An RS-232 serial port used to configure the device.
Plug one end of a straight-through wired RS-232 cable to the device and
the other end to a serial port of a PC running a terminal emulation pro-
gram (such as Microsoft HyperTerminal) or a VT-100 terminal.
Fast Ethernet WAN: A10/100dual-speed Ethernet port fittedwith an RJ-
45 connector used to connect the VoIP gateway to a WAN device (usually
a router). This port accepts Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP cabling with an RJ-45
connector.

Connecting the Network Cable
Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP cable can be used to make the Ethernet connection to
your router.
The maximum cable length between the DG-102SH and the supporting call
agentis 100meters. The cablemust be straight-through(not acrossover cable)
with RJ-45 connectors at each end.
Connecting the VoIP Gateway to a Hub/Switch
Connecting the VoIP Gateway to a Computer
The DG-102SH requires a straight-through cable when connecting to a
computer. Make sure that your IP address on your Ethernet card is in the same
subnet as the DG-102SH otherwise it will not connect.
To connect the device to either a hub or switch, you must connect the straight-
through cable to the LAN port.

Installation

When installing the unit on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet in-
cluded with the device should be attached. These cushioning feet
should be attached to the bottom corners of the device.
Do not place heavy objects on the DG-102SH at any time. Placing
the DG-102SH in a well ventilated area is very important. Not doing
so may cause damage to the unit.

Configuration
Configuring the VoIP Gateway
Using a web browser on a computer connected to the device via the
WANorLAN Ethernetconnections. In thediscussion below,the computer
running the browser is referred to as the management station.
Using a terminal or computer running terminal emulation software
connected to the diagnostic port via an RS-232 cable. In the discussion
below, the terminal (or computer) is referred to as a console and the
connection, a console connection.
