1.2 For Your Safety

WARNING
•Proper earthing (connection to earth) is very important to reduce the risk to the user of electrocution or to
protect the PBX from the bad effects of external noise in the case of a lightning strike.
•The earthing wire of the AC cable has an effect against external noise and lightning strikes, but it may not
be enough to protect the PBX and to ensure electromagnetic compatibility. A permanent connection
between earth and the earth terminal of the PBX must be made.
•Make sure that the AC outlet is properly earthed, then securely connect the 3-pin AC plug including the
earthed pin.
CAUTION
•When installing or removing the optional service cards, do not put pressure on any parts of the mother
board. Doing so may result in damage to the PBX.
•Once you have started the PBX, if you unplug the PBX, do not initialise it again as described in "System
Initialisation Procedure". Otherwise, your programmed data will be cleared.
•When opening the top cover, the power switch must be turned off.
•For safety reasons, close the top cover and tighten the screws before operating the PBX.
•For earthing wire, green-and-yellow insulation is required, and the cross-sectional area of the conductor
must be more than 0.75 mm2 or 18 AWG.
•Use only the AC power cord included with the PBX.
•Before touching the product (PBX, cards, etc.), discharge static electricity by touching ground or wearing
an earthing strap. Failure to do so may cause the PBX to malfunction due to static electricity.
•When installing or removing the optional service cards, the power switch must be turned off.
•The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the AC outlet is located near
the equipment and is easily accessible.
WARNING
This is a class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which
case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

2.2 Installing DSP Cards
CAUTION
•Before touching the product (PBX, cards, etc.), discharge static electricity by touching ground or
wearing an earthing strap. Failure to do so may cause the PBX to malfunction due to static electricity.
•When installing or removing the optional service cards, the power switch must be turned off.
•When installing or removing the optional service cards, do not put pressure on any parts of the mother
board. Doing so may result in damage to the PBX.
Note
Make sure the AC power cord is not connected to the AC inlet of the PBX.
A DSP card is a digital signal processor card with DSP resources that can be used for VoIP calls, conferences,
the Unified Messaging feature, and the DISA/OGM feature. The DSP card is compliant with ITU-T G. 729A
and G.711 codec methods.
12 Getting Started
2.2 Installing DSP Cards

DSP S card can be installed on the mother board. To operate the PBX with VoIP features, DSP S card must
be installed in DSP card slot.
Note
•The DSP Resource Advisor can be used to calculate DSP resource usage easily. For details, refer to
"9.37.1.1 PBX Configuration—[1-5-1] Configuration—DSP Resource—Setting—DSP Resource
Advisor" in the PC Programming Manual.
•For information about installing other optional service cards, refer to the Installation Manual.

Connecting the Main Unit to the LAN
When the PBX is connected to the LAN for the first time, you must assign IP addressing information to the
PBX. Refer to "4.1 Programming the PBX" for instructions.
Note
Make sure to set the port of the switching hub that connects to the PBX to operate under "Auto
Negotiation" mode.
Connecting the PBX to a Switching Hub
1. Connect the cable to the LAN port of the PBX.

2.4.2 LAN Connections for IP Telephones
When an IP telephone is connected to the LAN and power is supplied for the first time, you will be prompted
to set network parameters. The network parameters must be set for the IP telephone before it can be used.
Refer to "4.3 Assigning Networking Information to IP Telephones" for instructions.
Connecting an IP Telephone to a Switching Hub
When connecting an IP telephone to the LAN, connect it to a switching hub.
Note
Since an IP softphone is installed and operates on a PC, the PC must be connected to the LAN to use the
IP softphone on the network.
The diagram below is for connecting an IP-PT to a switching hub. For SIP phones, refer to the documentation
of your SIP phone.
Example: KX-NT346
Ethernet Straight Cable

16 Getting Started
2.4.2 LAN Connections for IP Telephones

Connecting an AC Adaptor to an IP Telephone
IP-PTs and some SIP phones comply with the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard. If PoE is
available on your network, these IP telephones can receive the necessary power supply from the network
through the network cable. In this case, no AC adaptor is needed for the IP telephones.
However, if PoE is not available, you will need to connect an AC adaptor to the IP telephone.
Note
Use only the specified type of AC adaptor for each IP telephone. For details, refer to the documentation of
your IP telephone.
Example: KX-NT346
