Connect the phones and lines
When you run the system quick installation script, you will
be prompted to connect the IP phones, analog phones
and lines to the system. The system will not automatically
recognize any IP phone that you connect after the
system quick installation tool is finished.
1. Plug the RJ-45 connectors from the IP phones into
the layer-2 switch ports on the controller (see Figure
2 (page 21)) and expansion unit (see Figure 4 (page
22)). The first IP phone that you connect to the sys-
tem is assigned as the administrator station
(extension 1000). It’s recommended that you connect
a Mitel Networks 5220 IP phone or 5240 IP Appliance
into port 1 of the controller (port 2 if the system in-

The default extension numbers for the IP phones are
assigned in the order that you connect the phones.
2. Plug the RJ-11 connectors from the analog phones
into the ONS ports on the ONS modules.
3. Plug the RJ-11 connectors from the LS/CLASS lines
into the line ports.
If you need to add some IP phones later, you can
re-enable the auto registration option through the
System Tool. Choose System, click System-wide
settings, click Change, and then set IP set
autoregistration enabled to True.
Power fail transfer: If power to the system fails, the
ONS set connected to port 2 (extension 1101) is
automatically connected to line 1.
4. If the system includes a T1/E1 Plus MMC module,
plug the RJ-45 connector from the digital line into the
“T1/E1” port on the T1/E1Plus MMC module.
Connect one end of the supplied CAT 5 patch cable
into the LAN port. Connect the other end into a
layer-2 switch port on the controller (typically you
