Implementing a Voice and Data Network
Using a CXi/CXi II ICP
A voice and data network uses the CXi/CXi II controller’s network
interfaces to provide services for IP phones and PCs plus a
firewall-protected connection to the Internet.
The 10/100/1G LAN port in the illustration is connected to a pair of Layer
2 switches. These two 24-port switches, daisy-chained together, provide
an additional 48 ports. A single 48-port switch could also be used. Note
that the maximum number of IP phones supported on the CXi is 100 and
150 on the CXi II.
PCs are shown connected to the network in two ways: directly to the Layer
2 switch and indirectly through a dual-port IP Phone.
CAUTION: To ensure optimum network performance, DO NOT
connect servers to the 2nd port on IP phones.
