ShoreGear-120/24 Voice Switch
The ShoreGear-120/24 (Figure 6-6) supports 24 analog ports: 8 universal telephone/
trunk ports and 16 telephone ports. The ShoreGear-120/24 interfaces to standard
analog trunks using loop start or wink start signaling, as well as to standard analog
telephones, including CLASS feature phones with Caller ID Name and Number, and
Message Waiting. When you are connecting to both LAN connectors in a redundant
network configuration, one network port will be active and the other will be in standby
mode. If one LAN connection fails, the switch automatically changes to the other LAN
connection.
The ShoreGear-120/24 can be configured to support up to 120 ShoreTel IP Phones (five
IP phones per IP phone port). The ShoreGear-120/24 ports can also be used to support
SIP, with the reservation mechanism the same as that used for IP phones. The
ShoreGear-120/24 ports are configured for IP through the ShoreGear-120/24 edit page.
NOTE If you are installing IP phones in your system, you must assign sufficient
ShoreGear-120/24, ShoreGear-60/12, or ShoreGear-40/8 ports to IP phone
support before attempting to install and configure IP phones.
NOTE The ShoreGear-120/24, ShoreGear-60/12, and ShoreGear-40/8 are not supported
in installations outside the U.S. and Canada.
