BoththeTelosHx6andiQ6haveanEthernetconnection
on the rear panel. The iQ6 has no traditional audio
I/O; as such it is used exclusively in Livewire network
installations.AniQ6andanyVSet6'swillbeconnected
onlytoaLivewirenetworkusingqualifiedandproperly
configuredEthernetswitches.IfaTelosHx6isinstalled
using Livewire for audio I/O, then it also must be
connected to a Livewire network using qualified and
properly configured Ethernet switches. Refer to Axia
manualsandotherAxiasupportdocumentsforfurther
information about Livewire networks and qualified
Ethernetswitches.
MostusersofaTelosHx6willusethetraditionalaudio
I/O connections - analog or AES digital. The Livewire
audioI/Ocapabilitywill be disabled (thisisthe default
setting in the Hx6) and the Ethernet jack is used only
to communicate with any VSet6's or PCs running call
screeningsoftware.AsnoLivewireAudiooverIPisused
innon-Livewiresettings,asimple,unmanagedEthernet
switch may be used. This Ethernet switch provides
networkconnectionsfortheHx6tocommunicatewith
any VSet6 phones, as well as call screener PCs. When
using a switch not configured for Livewire AoIP, it's
important to never enable the Hx6's Livewire audio
capabilities, as some or all network communications
