Polycom HDX systems running 2.5 or later:

• Connecting the Phone to the Network on page 4
Polycom strongly recommends that you connect the SoundPoint IP 7000 to the
LAN using the included network cable and to the Polycom HDX system using an
Polycom HDX Microphone Cable. A LAN connection enables access to a
provisioning server as well as a time server.
A provisioning server facilitates software upgrades, configuration management, and
diagnostic logging, which is helpful if troubleshooting is required.
Access to a time server enables display of the current date and time on the phone's
display.
For more information, refer to Setting Up a Provisioning Server on page 13.
