IP Telephone Models
There are seven telephone set models and a button module currently defined in the 1600 Series
IP Telephone family:
The 1603SW, 1603SW-I, 1608, 1608-I, 1616, and 1616-I telephones have an internal Ethernet
switch that allows the telephone and a PC to share the same LAN connection, if appropriate.
Thus, these 1600 models do not need, or work with, the 30A switched hub interface.
This document describes the installation of these telephones and post-installation maintenance
issues. For details about using the features provided by the telephones, see the user
documentation for each telephone. For information about desk or wall mounting any of the 1600
Series IP Telephones, see the instructions boxed with the telephone. Wall or desk mount
instructions are also available on the Avaya support Web site http://www.avaya.com/support
.
Software
As shipped from the factory, the 1600 Series IP Telephone may not contain the most up-to-date

download from an HTTP server might be initiated. The software download gives the telephone
upgraded functionality.
For subsequent downloads of software upgrades, the Avaya Media Server provides the
capability for a remote restart of the IP telephone. As a consequence of restarting, the
telephone automatically restarts reboot procedures which result in a download if new software
