Gateway Installation
To install the Gateway:
1. Install a Gateway first. Plug the AC plug into an electrical outlet not controlled by a
wall switch and the DC plug into the DC jack, as shown in Figure 14. Wait up to one
minute until the screen lights up.
2. Plug a gray Cat.-5 LAN cable for the PSTN Gateway or SIP Gateway or yellow Cat.-6
LAN cable for the T1 Gateway into the Ethernet port marked LAN. Use the supplied
cables or a comparable substitute. Plug the other end of the cable into your
office LAN. The T1 Gateway is Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) capable, so it has a Cat.-6 LAN
cable. The Desksets and other devices require only Cat.-5 cables.

The Gateway takes about a minute to power up.
After another Synapse device is installed, and after the Gateway has found the
network and the other Synapse device, Synchronized appears on the third line of
the display as shown in Figure 15 (PSTN Gateway shown). This is the Idle screen.
