1. Connection overview
Basically, the GAC2500 is put into operation by the Seabix technician on site. However, it is important that you are familiar with the various connections on the phone in order to be able to use the phone together with Seabix remote support in the event of a problem or in the event of a warranty replacement.
Network connections
Please pay particular attention to the two network connections on the device. The symbol with the 2 end points is used to loop a network signal; we do not recommend using this port. The blue connection with the 3 screens is the connection with which the telephone is connected to the network. Use this connector.
2. Where does the phone get power from?
The GAC2500 is usually delivered without a power supply unit. Ideally, it draws its power from a PoE (Power over Ethernet) capable network switch. All Seabix switches support this function. The power supply from the network switch simultaneously enables the establishment of a power bridging concept with a UPS (uninterruptible power supply). Ask Seabix Sales if you are interested in this opportunity.
3. Basic view & basic functions
The conference phone can be operated via touch screen. To open the menu of the GAC2500 in the basic state, press the bottom edge of the idle screen and then drag upwards with your pressed finger.
