About This Installation Guide
This Installation Guide explains the installation of the QuadroISDN gateway.
This Installation Guide does not provide advanced configuration information. For these fea-
tures, refer to the Administrator's Guide.
The QuadroISDN is VoIP gateway that allows connectivity between the ISDN and a VoIP
network. The QuadroISDN gateway can be configured to work as:
•An ISDN expansion board to supplement a Quadro IP PBXs with additional LINE
ports.
•A standalone VoIP gateway.
In case of using QuadroISDN as LINE expansion board it can be connected both to WAN
and LAN for Quadro IP PBX to emulate additional ISDN ports on Quadro IP PBX with di-
verse configurations depend on usage scenarios.
This document describes how to configure the QuadroISDN as an LINE expansion board
connected to the LAN interface of a Quadro IP PBX to increase the ISDN capability on the

Quadro IP PBX or a PC is connected directly to this socket, a straight cable is used. If
an Ethernet hub, router or switch is used, a crossover cable may be required.
5RJ-45 socket to attach the Internet Uplink (WAN) via an Ethernet CAT 5 cable.
6The NT/TE switches are used to control the QuadroISDN device on the S/T Bus. If the
QuadroISDN is connected to the beginning or end of the S/T Bus or if there is only one
ISDN unit connected to the S/T Bus, then this switch should be toggled to the NT
(Network Terminator) position. Otherwise, if the QuadroISDN is connected in the mid-
dle of the S/T Bus, the switch should be toggled to the TE (Terminal Endpoint) posi-
tion.
S/T Bus is a full-duplex interface. It consists of two groups (one for transmit and the
other one for receive) of two-wire interface and might support multiple devices (up to 8
devices can be attached to the S/T Bus). Both ends of each of the two-wire interfaces
should be terminated (100ohm resistance is present at both ends of each two-wire in-
terface).
Please Note: If the trunks on the QuadroISDN have incorrect NT/TE position, they
may not function properly, including connection establishment permanent failure.

the yellow Info LED will glow for another four or five minutes while the green Busy LED is
blinking. Once the Info LED is off, the boot sequence has been completed successfully.
LED indication during emergency firmware upload
The red Fault LED and the yellow Busy LEDs will stop blinking alternately and start blinking
in parallel. This shows that Quadro has accepted the emergency firmware and is loading it.
After a few seconds, Quadro will boot, indicated as follows: The red Fault LED will glow for a
few seconds, then the yellow Info LED will glow for another few seconds while the green
Busy LED is jittering. When the yellow Info LED extinguishes, the boot sequence has been
completed successfully.

QuadroISDN Manual I: Installation Guide Configuring the Standalone Gateway QuadroISDN
QuadroISDN; (SW Version 5.1.x) 8
Installing the QuadroISDN
Networking Overview
To establish a connection between the PSTN (or your PBX) and the Internet, a gateway is
needed. The QuadroISDN, used as a standalone gateway, will perform the task of connect-
ing your PSTN (or PBX) via its WAN port to a Private Data Network that includes Quadro IP
PBXs (Quadro-2x, -4x and/or -16x) or the Internet. The QuadroISDN will process and regu-
late the voice traffic between these networks by means of Call Routing paths that are speci-
fied by the administrator according to a dial plan. The QuadroISDN has one LAN port that is
used to connect a PC for management purposes. The WAN port transmits up to 10 Mbps,
and the LAN port transmits at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
Fig. I-3: Standalone gateway: Connection overview
Every device within an IP network requires a unique IP address to identify itself. Since the
QuadroISDN, used as a standalone gateway, connects to both the LAN (Admin PC) and the
WAN (Private Data Network or Internet), it has to be part of both networks, and must have
two IP addresses: one for the WAN side and one for the LAN side. The QuadroISDN’s inte-
grated firewall/NAT functionality will hide the LAN IP address from the WAN (Internet) side.
(As the firewall is switched off per default, you need to enable it.)
There are two ways of assigning an IP address: statically or dynamically. The QuadroISDN
can be configured with a static IP address on the WAN interface. You also can use a DHCP
server assigned IP address on the WAN side.
Please Note: A DHCP client is software that requests an IP address from a DHCP server. A
DHCP server assigns on request a unique IP address to a device. The QuadroISDN acts as
a DHCP client on its WAN interface and as a DHCP server on its LAN interface.
Fig. I-4: LINE expansion: Connection overview
Besides acting as a standalone gateway, QuadroISDN may serve as a LINE expansion for
Quadro IP PBXs. In this case, QuadroISDN needs only a LAN IP address which it gets from
the DHCP server of the attached Quadro IP PBX (see Configuring the QuadroISDN as an IP
PBX Expansion device).

Configuring the Standalone Gateway
QuadroISDN
To configure the standalone gateway QuadroISDN basically, two steps are needed:
Step1: Connecting the Hardware – used to connect the QuadroISDN in the net-
work
Step2: Basic Configuration using the System Configuration Wizard and the
Internet Configuration Wizard
Step3: Setting up Call Routing according to your dial plan
Step 1: Connecting the Hardware
Fig. I-5: Connecting the Hardware
•Verify the product package contents are complete. Refer to the contents sheet included
in the packaging to determine if all the items were shipped in the box.
•Connect the QuadroISDN's LINE ports to your PBX or the trunk from the NT1 (Network
Termination Unit) attached to the PSTN Central Office via straight CAT 5 cable (see
Appendix: Pin Assignment of ISDN).
•If the QuadroISDN is used as a standalone gateway, a PC may be connected via a
straight CAT 5 cable with an RJ45 connector to the LAN socket of the QuadroISDN. If a
hub or switch shall be connected, use a crossover cable from the LAN interface of the
QuadroISDN to the hub or switch.
The LAN port is not needed, if QuadroISDN shall be used as a LINE expansion.
•If the QuadroISDN shall be used as a standalone gateway, connect its WAN port to the
Internet service via a cable or DSL modem. In this case, you should enable the firewall,
as it is disabled by default).
Connect the WAN port of the QuadroISDN to the LAN port of the Quadro IP PBX to use
the QuadroISDN as an LINE expansion for the Quadro IP PBX.
•When using a DSL or Cable modem, power up the modem before the Quadro.
•Connect the power adapter to the POWER port on the QuadroISDN’s rear panel and
plug the power adapter into a power outlet. Only use the original power adapter and plug
it into a power strip with surge protection or to a UPS if available.
The red LED (Fault) will glow for several seconds followed by the yellow LED (Info),
which will glow for several minutes. As soon as Info is off, the QuadroISDN is opera-
tional.
•Check the LEDs: The green Busy LED should glow continuously. The green LAN and
WAN LEDs will blink when cables are connected to these ports and all devices are pow-
ered up. If the green LAN and WAN LEDs do not blink, verify cabling and ensure that all
devices are powered up.

QuadroISDN Manual I: Installation Guide Configuring the Standalone Gateway QuadroISDN
QuadroISDN; (SW Version 5.1.x) 10
Please Note:CAT 5 cables can be faulty without visual indication. The LAN and WAN
LEDs verify that the Ethernet connection is established between the end points. If these
LEDs are not illuminated, there is a connection problem between the QuadroISDN and
the other device. Some modems, hubs, switches and routers will require the use of
crossover cables.
Step 2: QuadroISDN configuration
The most important settings are:
Static IP address for the WAN Interface. If you use a DHCP server, please config-
ure it to deliver a static IP address. In this case, QuadroISDN will get its IP address
automatically, as it acts as a DHCP client on the WAN side.
Bandwidth - used to regulate a number of calls allowed by the QuadroISDN to
avoid degradation in low bandwidth conditions.
Regional Settings - if your QuadroISDN is located outside the United States, it is
important to properly configure your line connections to the PSTN in your location
Firewall - enable and configure the firewall to make the QuadroISDN safe and ac-
cessible for management.
ISDN Settings – used to configure the ISDN trunks and properties.
To customize these settings, connect a PC to QuadroISDN's LAN port, log in and complete
the Basic Configuration as described in the following sections.
Logging in to QuadroISDN
Start a browser (MS Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera) on a PC connected to
QuadroISDN's LAN port. Enter http://172.28.0.1 (QuadroISDN’s default LAN IP address)
into the address field. The Login page of the QuadroISDN will be displayed:
Fig. I-6: QuadroISDN's login page
Enter admin as Username and 19 as Password to log in as administrator.
After logging in, the QuadroISDN Management page will be displayed.
Please Note: If you enter a wrong password and/or username five times, the device will be-
come unavailable for login during the next five minutes.

Basic Configuration
Two Configuration Wizards are available to accomplish the basic configuration of Quadro
devices:
•The System Configuration Wizard - a tool for the administrator to define the
Quadro's Local Area Network settings and to specify regional configuration set-
tings to make Quadro operational in its LAN. It must be run upon Quadro first
startup.
•The Internet Configuration Wizard - a tool for the administrator to configure the
WAN settings and to adjust Quadro's connectivity in the global network. It must be
run if Quadro is desired to be connected to the Internet.
Please Note: It is strongly recommended that factory default settings are left unchanged if
their meanings are not completely clear.

WAN IP Configuration
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) should provide this information.
•Assign automatically via DHCP - The parameters are set automatically by the
ISP. This is common with cable modem and DSL service.
•Assign Manually requires the administrator to enter the external IP Address, the
corresponding Subnet Mask, and the IP address of the Standard Gateway. This
is common when you have a static IP address with your ISP.

Dial Behavior radio buttons:
•Dial Manually - if this radio button is activated, a button will be displayed in the main
management window that serves to switch the Internet connection on/off. When ac-
cessing the Internet, every station of the connected LAN has to connect to Quadro first.
•Always connected - Quadro stays in the always connected mode. This will allow
Quadro always remain online in the network.
The IP Address Assignment field is used to specify the external IP address given to the
Quadro. Usually it is a dynamic address but in some cases you may be given a static IP ad-
dress.
