Managing IP handsets
Overview
The terminal has 2 LAN (PoE) connectors for connection of IP handsets or other IP equipment.
You may connect your IP handsets directly to the LAN interfaces or use a PoE switch to
connect more handsets. The SAILOR FleetBroadband terminal supports connection of up to 4
handsets.
Each handset must have a local number in the range 0501 to 0504 as well as a unique
password. By default, handset numbers are automatically assigned when Thrane IP Handsets
are connected. However, you may want to change the password for the handset. For further
information, see the next section Connecting and configuring IP handsets.
Note that if you do not want your Thrane IP Handsets to automatically be assigned a
local number and password, you can clear the setting Settings > Start up options > Auto
BGAN SIP in the Thrane IP Handset menu. This is recommended if you are going to use Voice
Distress or Multi-voice with assigned numbers. See Voice Distress on page 117 and Additional
numbers for Multi-voice on page 38.
The handset with the local number 0501 is the master handset. This means you can
start/stop data sessions from the terminal with this handset, if the function is allowed
in the User permissions page. See Setting up user permissions on page 109.
