Connection options
Communications between the Meridian Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit in
your office and the host PBX takes place using 10BaseT Ethernet interface to an
Internet Access Device (IAD) on a corporate wide area network (WAN). This
section provides a description of this connection.
10BaseT Ethernet interface
The Meridian Digital Telephone IP Adapter unit uses Nortel Networks
proprietary Voice over IP (VoIP) technology over the IP network to the host
PBX. Voice data is forwarded as UDP/IP packets and the signalling data as TCP/
IP packets. You can connect the Ethernet interface to an Internet Access Device
such as a BRI router, an xDSL modem, or cable modem. For more information,
refer to the “Internet Access Device description” on page 10.
