Endpoints
A variety of IP endpoints can be used on the Mitel platform. The combination of endpoints
depends on the number and type of endpoint modules installed. For endpoint illustrations and
endpoint feature description, refer to the Inter-Tel 5000 Features and Programming Guide, part
no. 580.8006.
At least one display endpoint should be installed to allow an administrator the capability of
seeing system alarm messages, program system data, and receive unsupervised CO recalls.
When the system is in the default configuration, extension number 1000 is preassigned as an
administrator and as the primary attendant.
IP Devices
The Inter-Tel Protocol (ITP) IP PhonePlus, multi-protocol endpoints, and IP Single Line
Adapters (SLA) provide the functionality that allows the user to make calls through the IP
network to the converged communications platform.
The Model 8690 is a multi-protocol display endpoint that uses Windows CE as the interface.
The IP devices operate the same as their counterparts installed directly on the system, except
that IP devices:
• Cannot use a MDPM.
• Cannot support a full DSS/BLF.
• Do not support Desktop OAI applications.
• Do not need to support the Enhanced Speakerphone Mode feature.
The IP SLA operates like a standard single line endpoint.
NOTE
Optional Headsets
A headset may be attached to endpoints by unplugging the handset from the
handset jack on the base of the endpoint, plugging the headset into the handset
jack, and entering a feature code to enable the headset. The Speaker button,
which is used to turn the headset on and off, is lit when placing and receiving calls
and unlit when the headset is not in use. The endsets are compatible with industry-
standard, 4-conductor, modular headsets that have electret microphones. For
installation instructions, see “Installing IP and Multi-Protocol Endpoints” on page 5-
106.
The Model 8620/8622, 8660, and 8662 endpoints have dedicated headset jacks on
the rear of the endpoint. This allows the endset to have a headset and handset
plugged in simultaneously. The headset, however, must still be enabled using the
feature code. The Speaker button on the Model 8620/8622 and Model 8660
endsets is used to turn the headset on and off and to indicate when the headset is
not in use. In addition, the hookswitch is enabled even when the headset is turned
on. This allows the user to answer a call with the handset without having to disable
the headset.
