LINESHARE PRO
3.3 Connecting Telephone Equipment
to the Lineshare Pro
Figure 3-4 shows a complete
installation for a single phone
line/single phone arrangement.
While the connections to the wall
jack may be different for other types
of phone systems, the connections to
the Lineshare Pro remain the same
for all phone configurations.
Figure 3-4 illustrates only one
of many possible configurations.
As shown, the Lineshare Pro is
configured with a voice priority
phone port with three auxiliary
ports. You can also configure the
Lineshare Pro as a four port secured
switching system (see Chapter 5 for
more information).
NOTE
Do not place the Lineshare
Pro on or in close proximity
to peripheral equipment
(approximately 2-3 feet away
from other electronic
equipment).
To connect telephone equipment
as shown in Figure 3-4 to the
Lineshare Pro, follow these steps:
1. To connect a phone, TAD, or
integrated phone/answering
machine, plug one end of a
phone cable into Port 1 on the
back of the Lineshare Pro.
2. Plug the other end of the phone
cable into the phone line jack of
the phone, TAD, or integrated
phone/answering machine. This
jack may be labeled “Line” or
“Telephone Line.”
3. To connect a telephone device
such as a computer modem,
plug one end of a phone cable
into PORT 2 on the rear panel
of the Lineshare Pro.
4. Plug the other end of the phone
cable into the telephone device.
Check the owner’s guide of the
device for the proper
connection. Repeat steps 3
and 4 for Port 3 and Port 4.
