Installing and setting up the IP Softphone 2050

The Nortel USB Audio Kit includes:

• USB Headset Adapter (desktop or mobile)

• Installation Guide (English and French only)

• USB cord

Some kits also include a headset.

The Algo Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) is a USB adapter that lets you

use analog terminals instead of headsets. With an Algo ATA users can,

for example, use a cordless handset with their IP Softphone 2050.

Note: The IP Softphone 2050 is compatible with the Algo ATA. For

support, see www.algosolutions.com.

Installing the IP Softphone 2050

For information about installing the IP Softphone 2050, see IP Phones

Fundamentals (NN43001-368) or consult your system administrator.

Client Licensing

All new and upgrade installations of the IP Softphone 2050 software

require a valid license for product activation.

Note: There is a 30-day evaluation period during which you can use

the software without a license. Once the 30-day evaluation period has

expired, the software will no longer work until a valid license code is

obtained.

Consult your system administrator for details.
