Chapter 2 - Installation
Cabling Procedure
Cabling involves connecting the host MultiVOIP to your LAN and telephone equipment.
1. If you are connecting any Voice/Fax Channel to an E&M trunk other than type 2, perform the
E&M Jumper Block Positioning procedure which appears later in this chapter before connecting
power to the unit.
2. Connect one end of the power supply to a live AC outlet and connect the other end to the
MultiVOIP as shown in Figure 2-2. The power connector is a 7-pin circular DIN connector.

3. Connect the MultiVOIP to a PC by using the DB-25 (male) to DB-9 (female) cable provided in
your unit. Plug the DB-25 end of the cable into the Command port of the MultiVOIP and the other
end into the PC serial port. See Figure 2-2.
4. Connect a network cable to the ETHERNET 10BASE-T connector on the back of the MultiVOIP.
Connect the other end of the cable to your network.
5. If you are connecting a station device such as an analog telephone, a fax machine, or a Key
Telephone System (KTS) to your MultiVOIP, connect one end of an RJ11 phone cord to the
Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXS connector on the back of the MultiVOIP and the other end to the
station device.
If you are connecting the station side of a telephone switch (PBX) to your MultiVOIP, connect one
end of an RJ11 phone cord to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 FXO connector on the back of the
MultiVOIP and the other end to the phone jack.
If you are connecting an E&M trunk from a telephone switch to your MultiVOIP, connect one end
of an RJ45 phone cord to the Voice/Fax Channel 1 E&M connector on the back of the MultiVOIP
and the other end to the trunk. Refer to Appendix B for E&M cabling pinout.
If you are connecting to an E&M trunk, you need ensure that the E&M trunk jumper is in the
correct position for the E&M type trunk. The default E&M jumper position is E&M type 2. To
change the E&M jumper position, perform the E&M jumper block positioning procedure.
6. Repeat the above step to connect the remaining telephone equipment to each Voice/Fax
Channel on your MultiVOIP.
7. Turn on power to the MultiVOIP by placing the ON/OFF switch on the back panel to the ON
position. Wait for the BTG LED on the MultiVOIP to go off before proceeding. This may take a
few minutes.
Proceed to the next section to load the MultiVOIP software.
