Chapter 2 - Quick Installation English 2. Quick Installation 2. 1 Connectors There are five connectors on AX-112, and you can find them on the two side panels. These two side panels can be distinguished by the arrow icon, the upward arrow indicates the WAN side, while the other downward arrow indicates the LAN side. 2.1.1 WAN side connectors PWR PWR WAN PSTN (FXO) WAN DC power jack Use the universal power adapter included in the package.
Chapter 2 - Quick Installation English 2.1.2 LAN side connectors LAN LAN PHONE (FXS) LAN Normally, you can only have one Ethernet cable at your desk. If you also have to use your PC or notebook while the VoIP device is running, then an extra LAN port is necessary for this purpose on AX-112. The LAN port has bridge capability to WAN port and allows the connected device to be able to access the network easily without other settings.
Chapter 2 - Quick Installation English 2. 2 Hardware connection • • • • • Use a standard Category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable with RJ45 jack to connect the WAN port of AX-112 to the LAN port of your ADSL modem or router. Use another Ethernet cable to connect your PC or notebook to the LAN port of AX-112 if necessary. Use an ordinary phone cable with RJ11 jack to connect the phone-set to AX-112’s phone port.
Chapter 3 - Configuration English 3. Configuration In an Internet browser, enter the WAN IP address that you got either via the DHCP server or the IVR). You will be taken to the AX-112’s web configuration page, which consists of five menu items for future settings. 3. 1 Status In this page, you will see all the system status including WAN port status, IP/MAC address, system uptime and firmware version. 3.
Chapter 3 - Configuration English 3.2.2 MAC spoofing This field allows the user to set the Ethernet hardware/MAC address to be used by the WAN interface. This is typically done to mimic (‘spoof’ or ‘clone’) the MAC address of one of the devices connected to the private LAN interface. To do this, follow these steps: 1. ������������������������������������������������������������������������� Enter the 12 digits hardware address to assign to the WAN interface; and 2.
Chapter 3 - Configuration English 3.3.3 NAT traversal setting Select the NAT traversal type. You may check the uPnP button if your NAT/Firewall supports uPnP SIP ALG, or assign the STUN server IP if you are using STUN service. You may also assign the RTP port if there is port enabling on your router settings. 3.3.4 ToS/DiffServ settings This sub-page is used to configure the Type-of-Service/Diffserv byte values.
Chapter 3 - Configuration English Packetization period Select the packetization period to be used for each selected CODEC. Each codec has a different basic packetize period (usually it’s 30ms for G.723, 10ms for G.729). You can select longer time period to increase the transmission efficiency. But, longer packetization time will cause longer delay time. 3.4.2 DTMF & Gain & Dialling DTMF This field allows configuration of the DTMF signaling options for SIP.
Chapter 3 - Configuration English Phone default connect to You can select the connection state of the phone set to VoIP FXS codec circuit or to the PSTN port when the line is idle. It is set to ‘FXS’ by factory default for normal usage. For one special case, when the caller ID signal from PSTN line comes before the first ring, then you may select the phone set to be connected to PSTN as default and ensure all the caller ID signal pass to the phone set.
Chapter 3 - Configuration Simple dial plan English Allows dialing of 7 digit numbers (e.g. 5551234) or an operator on 0. Dial plan is (0T|xxxxxxx) .

Chapter 3 - Configuration Speed dial & phone book English AX-112 supports eight speed-dial and eight phone book entries for easy call operation. You may enter the SIP extension number in the speed-dial fields. By dialing the speed-dial prefix code (default is ‘*68n’) defined in the “Service Code” with the speed dial index number (1~8), AX-112 will send out the call invitation through the registered SIP server. The phone book has almost the same function as the speed-dial.
