IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1. Use only the power adapter supplied with this product. To order a
replacement power adapter, visit our website at
businessphones.vtech.com or call 1 (888) 370-2006.
2. The power adapter is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or oor
mount position. The prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place if it is
plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.
If there is a networked computer and no extra Ethernet wall ports near the phone,
then the phone and PC can share the same network connection.
To share a network connection with a PC:
1. Plug a Cat.-5 Ethernet cable into the PC port on the phone (marked by
).
2. Plug the other end of the Cat.-5 Ethernet cable into your computer’s Ethernet port.
If a GigE network is being used, a computer connected through the phone
will be limited to 100 Mbits/s. If you require a GigE Ethernet rate, use
separate Ethernet connections for the phone and the computer.
If a PC is connected to your network through a phone, any phone resets and
power or network interruptions will disrupt the PC’s connection to the network.
