PREFACE
PIntroduction
Thank you for purchasing the Mediatrix 1104 from Mediatrix Telecom,
Inc.
This manual illustrates some of the various call processes the
Mediatrix 1104 supports. It also describes how to make and receive
calls, as well as how to use the services the Mediatrix 1104 offers.
Intended Audience This manual provides all the information needed to use the Mediatrix
1104. It is intended for end-users that will use the product on a regular
basis.
Before you Begin This manual assumes that your Mediatrix 1104 has been properly set
up by your system administrator. If you need to install and configure the
Mediatrix 1104 yourself, please refer to the Administration Manual
provided with your Mediatrix 1104 or contact your system
administrator.
SCN vs PSTN In Mediatrix Telecom, Inc.’s and other vendor’s documentation, the
terms SCN and PSTN are used. A SCN (Switched Circuit Network) is
a general term to designate a communication network in which any
user may be connected to any other user through the use of message,
circuit, or packet switching and control devices. The Public Switched
Telephone Network (PSTN) or a Private Branch eXchange (PBX) are
examples of SCNs.

Overview The Mediatrix 1104 is an IP Telephony adaptor that connects up to four
(4) analog terminals to a LAN or a WAN with access to an IP Packet
Network to permit high-quality, full duplex, audio/fax communications.
Capable of performing all required IP Telephony tasks in one
standalone enclosure, the Mediatrix 1104 offers the same enhanced
features present in the Mediatrix Telecom, Inc. line of products, and
can be an integral part of a cost-effective IP telephony solution by
complementing the existing VoIP infrastructure. In addition, a bypass
line allows calls to be routed to the SCN, in case of a network failure or
power outage.
This version of the Mediatrix 1104 uses the Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP), which is a protocol for transporting call setup, routing,
authentication, and other feature messages to endpoints within the IP
domain.
Using this Manual The following information provides an explanation of the symbols
which appear on the Mediatrix 1104 and in the documentation for the
product.

CHAPTER
1Using the Mediatrix 1104
Now that your administrator has properly set up the Mediatrix 1104,
you can dial any number on your phone (which is connected to the
Mediatrix 1104) and place the call.
However, you should be aware that the administrator has probably set
permissions and restrictions regarding local and long distance calls.
Should you encounter any calling problem, please discuss it with your
administrator to remedy the problem.
Call Processes The following examples illustrate some of the various calling processes
the Mediatrix 1104 supports. These processes can be adapted at will
to suit your needs and requirements.
The Mediatrix 1104 can communicate with the following devices:
Another telephone or fax connected to the same
Mediatrix 1104.
Another access device on the IP network such as the
Mediatrix 1102 or Mediatrix 1124.
Any LAN Endpoint on the IP network such as:
• a Soft Phone
• an IP phone directly connected to the IP network
A SCN phone or fax. However, the Mediatrix 1104 would
need to contact an analog gateway such as the Mediatrix
1204.

which in turn contacts a Mediatrix 1204 gateway, then reaches the
corresponding SCN phone.
A SCN user can also contact the Mediatrix 1204 gateway, which in turn
contacts the Mediatrix 1104, then reaches the corresponding phone/
fax.

Calls Without a SIP Server
You can dial another unit (gateway or access device) without the help
of a SIP Server by entering its IP address. See “Dialing an IP Address”
on page 6 for more details.
Making Calls Users with telephones or faxes connected to a Mediatrix 1104 dial as
if they were on a standard telephony system.
Complete Dial-
ing Sequence
There are three ways to indicate the dialed number sequence is
complete and the Mediatrix 1104 can dial the number:
Your administrator has set up the dialing process so that
you must end the telephone number with a particular
character to indicate it is complete, e.g. a “#”.
Your administrator has set up the dialing process with a
timer. This timer checks the dialing process and, when no
further digits have been dialed for the time set by the
administrator, it assumes the number is complete and
dials it.
Your administrator has set up the Mediatrix 1104 so it
knows exactly how many digits it must collect before it
places the call. It finds the number of digits to collect by
looking at the first few numbers dialed. For example: a
telephone number beginning by 1 should be followed by
10 more digits in North America.
Check with your administrator to determine which dialing process is
defined.

Administration manual for more details.

Mediatrix 1104 5
Dialing a Tele-
phone Number
or Numerical
Alias
This section assumes that the Mediatrix 1104 is configured to do SCN
emulation. The Mediatrix 1104 could be configured to do any other kind
of emulation, thus its users would simply have to dial as if they were
using their old system.
XTo dial a Standard Call:
1. Dial the telephone number as if you were using a standard
telephone, with country code and area code when required.
Examples:
8298749
15145701234
A Standard Call uses the server to contact the remote dialed
user. The server takes the decision as to redirect the call on
the SCN or to keep it on the network. Keeping the call on the
network takes precedence over redirecting it on the SCN. If
the call needs to go on the SCN, the server redirects it to a
proper analog gateway (such as the Mediatrix 1204) that will
place the call to the SCN network.
XTo dial a Forced SCN call:
1. Dial “**”.
2. Dial the telephone number as if you were using a standard
telephone, with country code and area code when required.
Examples:
**8298749
**15145701234
A Forced SCN Call allows you to specify that the user you
want to reach is located on the SCN network. This leaves no
decisions to the server; it must find a proper gateway and
place the call on the SCN. This option can be useful only
when a SCN number is shadowed by a network number.
Note: You can dial one star numbers *xx (such as *69). These
numbers are automatically inserted in the Request-URL of the SIP
INVITE request.
Note: A forced SCN call is only be possible if an analog gateway
such as the Mediatrix 1204 is available on the IP network.

Chapter 1 - Using the Mediatrix 1104 User’s Manual (SIP Version)
Mediatrix 1104 6
Making an Urgent Call
In case of emergency, you can make 911-style calls to a pre-defined
urgent gateway. The emergency number to dial and the address of the
urgent gateway have been set up by your network administrator. You
should ask for the number that has been set up so you can make
emergency calls if required.
Dialing an IP
Address
You can dial another Mediatrix 1104 without the help of a SIP server
by entering its IP address and the line you want to reach.
XTo make an IP address call:
1. Dial “**” (IP address prefix).
2. Dial the numerical digits of the IP address and use the “*” for
the “.” of the IP address.
3. Dial “#” to terminate the IP address.
4. Dial the telephone number of the specific line you want to
reach.
For example, let’s say you want to reach the telephone
connected to Line 2 of the Mediatrix 1104 with the IP address
192.168.0.23. The phone number assigned to Line 2 of this
Mediatrix 1104 is 1234. You must then dial the following
digits:
**192*168*0*23#1234
In this case, the Mediatrix 1104 sends an INVITE
[email protected]68.0.23.
Note: This assumes that your system administrator has properly
enabled the IP address call service.
