Connecting to a VoIP network
The SN10200 features dual GigE ports for connection to different VoIP networks. This provides an access
point to manage VoIP traffic. Should one of the IP networks fail, the SN10200 will continue to manage VoIP
traffic using the alternate network.
Note
Certain configurations of the SN10200 will exceed 100 Mbps, therefore
1000 Mbps is recommended.
To connect the SN10200 to the VoIP network, you will need:
• Gigabit Ethernet switch. A second one is required to support redundancy of the VoIP interface
• One or two CAT5 Ethernet cables with RJ45 male-male terminations.
The SN10200 is connected to the VoIP network by one or optionally two Ethernet GigE network links, as
shown in Figure 5. To connect the SN10200 to the VoIP network:
1. Connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable to VoIP0 at the rear of the SN10200. Connect the other end of the same
CAT5 cable to the Gigabit Ethernet switch.
2. If your system employs a second Gigabit Ethernet switch for redundancy, connect a second CAT5 Ether-
net cable to VoIP1 at the rear of the SN10200. Connect the other end of the same CAT5 cable to the sec-
ond Gigabit Ethernet switch.
