PBX Networking
OpenCom 100 provides all the features necessary for PBX networking. You need PBX
networking in the following cases:
• To operate the OpenCom 100 as a subsidiary system on another PBX. This will also
allow you to use the OpenCom 100 as a DECT server, for example.
• To network the OpenCom 100 with an OpenCom 1000. In this way you can use the
OpenCom 100 as a PBX for a branch office, for instance.
• To network several OpenCom 100s into a PBX system.
• To use flexible configuration possibilities of trunk lines for a OpenCom 100.
All settings that affect the configuration of PBX networking can be found in the Con-
figurator menu Telephony: Trunks and in the Telephony: Settings dialogue under
QSIG linking. Refer also refer to the corresponding help topics in the OpenCom 100
online help.
You can use ISDN point-to-point connections (Q.SIG or DSS1 protocol) or IP connec-
tions (Q.SIG-IP or SIP tie line protocol) for TK system networking.
Note
If you do not need the features of PBX networking, the simplified configuration is suf-
ficient in most cases. For this purpose, assign the preconfigured bundles (bundles)
Multi-terminal access or System access to the ports. The preconfigured route called
External trunk now makes it possible to seize an external line immediately or by first
dialling the prefix “0”. You can rename the preconfigured bundle and the preconfig-
ured route if required, but you cannot delete them.
Connections
Networking two or more TK systems means interconnecting them. The OpenCom 100
allows you to use the following connections:
• ISDN trunk lines
• ISDN point-to-point connections (Q.SIG) on external S
0
ports or on the S
2M
port
• IP network connections (Q.SIG-IP or SIP tie line)
