
The IP560g phone is a Class 3 device with a maximum consumption of 8.2 watts. Use 8.2
watts for capacity planning with Gigabit Ethernet POE switches on multiple deployments.

The IP565g phone is a Class 3 device with a maximum consumption of 8.2 watts. Use 8.2
watts for capacity planning with Gigabit Ethernet POE switches on multiple deployments.

The IP655 phone is a Class 3 device with a maximum consumption of 9.1 watts. Use 9.1 watts
for capacity planning with Gigabit Ethernet POE switches on multiple deployments.
 The ShoreTel IP560g, IP565g, and IP655 models require more power than the other ShoreTel
models, and thus these phones are not compatible with the ShoreTel IP Phone power adapter
used with other ShoreTel phone models.
 The ShoreTel IP560g and IP565g models cannot be daisy-chained from the Button Box (BB24).
The BB24 pass-through power is limited to Class 2 devices, and these phones are Class 3
devices. This means the BB24 cannot forward adequate power to these phones.
 The ShoreTel IP420, IP480, IP480g, IP485g, and IP655 phone models cannot be deployed with a
Button Box (BB24).
 The ShoreTel IP480g, IP485g, IP560g, IP565g, and IP655 phone models require Category 5e or
Category 6 Ethernet cables when deployed in Gigabit Ethernet configurations. We do not certify
the use of Category 5 Ethernet cables because they can lead to lower connection speed or
performance issues during high-rate data transfers.
Analog Phone Requirements
The ShoreTel system supports standard analog 2500-type telephones, including the CLASS (Custom
Local Area Signaling Services) features of Caller ID Name, Caller ID Number, and Message Waiting in
the United States and Canada.
Outside the United States and Canada, the ShoreTel system supports the local standard analog
telephones that support DTMF signaling. Analog Caller ID Number and Message Waiting are
supported in the following countries:
 France
 Germany
 Italy
 Spain
 United Kingdom
Outside of the United States, Canada, and the countries mentioned in the bulleted list above, the
features of Caller ID Name, Caller ID Number, and Message Waiting are not supported. See
International Planning and Installation on page 369, for more information.
The following list summarizes key requirements for analog phones:
 2500-type telephones: The ShoreTel system supports standard 2500-type telephones. (It does
not support 500-type rotary telephones.)
