Different Connection Types
There are two ways of connecting your
optiPoint 600 office to the communication platform:
•Via U
P0/E
: your optiPoint 600 office is connected to
the communication platform via a conventional tele-
phone cable.
• Via HFA (not in HiPath 500): the optiPoint 600 office
is connected to the corporate intranet by a LAN ca-
ble and this network is then connected to the com-
munication platform.
If your optiPoint 600 office is connected over HFA, your
service personnel can update the telephone software.
Different connection types mean that:
• The look and feel of the applications (Personal Direc-
tory, for example) is different. Both versions are de-
scribed in this document; the original look starting
on Æ page 120 and the alternative look starting on
Æ page 159.
• Certain functions operate differently when using an
external USB keyboard, Æ page 207.
Contact your service personnel for information
on your optiPoint 600 office connection.
These differences are also indicated in the rele-
vant chapters of this document as U
P0/E
or HFA.
