Configuring Several Button Boxes
There are many ways button boxes can be deployed. The optimal topology depends on
various environmental factors, such as whether the LAN is powered or not, and the
number of Ethernet jacks avaliable. Four topologies are shown below, with each
topology best suited to its environment. Each topology assumes four BB24’s will be
deployed. If you are deploying two or more button boxes, please take a moment to
review the illustration to learn which topology best meets the demands of your
environment. (Note that the ShoreTel 560g IP phone exceeds the BB24’s Class 2 power
limitations and is thus not supported in any of the topologies shown below.)
