2. Remote Teleworker Connection
A remote teleworker with a broadband Internet connection can connect the Advantage IP Executive to
the Opera system in the main office across the Internet. The remote Advantage IP Executive will have
the full system phone capability the same as an internal Advantage IP extension.
2.1 Wiring Connections
There are six connection sockets at the back of the Advantage IP Executive as shown below.
Headset DSS LAN DC Power PC Handset
Headset: This port is used to connect an optional headset
DSS: This port is used to connect to the optional DSS (Direct Station Select) Module. This is a
block of 48 keys that can be used for single touch access to all extensions on the system.
LAN: This is an Ethernet port, which is connected to the broadband router using a straight
Ethernet cable. From here the calls are sent over the Internet to the remote Opera system.
DC Power: The DC connector of the plug top power supply unit is connected to this socket.
(Note: The phone is also capable of taking its power supply over the LAN from a power
source that complies with the 802.3af ‘Power over the LAN’ standard.)
PC: This Ethernet port can be connected to a PC using a straight Ethernet cable. This facilitates
a single Ethernet cable to the desk from the broadband router carrying both voice and data
traffic as shown in the diagram.
Handset: The telephone handset is plugged in to this port.
