Installing IP Telephones
An IP telephone converts the voice signal into data packets and sends these packets directly to
another IP telephone or to the Business Communications Manager. If the destination is an IP
telephone, the arriving voice packets are converted to a voice stream which is routed to a speaker
or headset. If the destination is the Business Communications Manager, the voice stream is routed
to a circuit switched connection (telephone or line), or some form of gateway.
Before setting up IP clients, you must enable keycodes for IP telephony. For information on
entering keycodes, see the Keycode Installation Guide.
