optiPoint 500 Adapters 
 
The different optiPoint 500 adapters (not optiPoint 500 entry and optiPoint 500 economy) allow flexible expansion of the telephone workstation by providing additional device connections (such as personal computers, fax equipment, telephones, headsets).
The adapters, which are connected on the bottom of the telephone, are "plug&play". When a new telephone adapter configuration is plugged in, it generates a reset; a setup message notifies the system of the new configuration.
The user usually installs the adapter. The installation instructions are on the "Electronic Operating Instructions" CD.
Caution  
Always disconnect the line cord before connecting adapters to the telephone or removing them from the telephone.

10.5.3.1  

optiPoint analog adapter 
The optiPoint analog adapter allows an analog device (such as, telephone (DTMF only), group 3 fax, modem, cordless telephone) to be connected to an optiPoint 500 telephone.
The analog device connected can send and receive calls on the interface to the system regardless of the optiPoint telephone's connection status, as long as a B channel is available.
The adapter must always have a local power supply for operating the connected analog device.
 Fig. 10-45   optiPoint analog adapter
 

T/R interface properties  
 •   Supply current: 30 mA
 •   Busy signal when both B channels are busy
 •   Ring sequence: 2.2
 •   Supports only DTMF with Flash
 •   No ground signaling allowed
 •   Does not support: VoiceMail server with T/R interface, message waiting lamp, dictating equipment, speaker, announcement device (such as start/stop).

10.5.3.2  

optiPoint ISDN adapter 
The optiPoint ISDN adapter provides the basic ISDN access for S0 devices (max. 2), such as, an S0 PC card, group 4 fax equipment or video communication devices (such as, videoset or videokit).
S0 telephones must have their own power supply for connection.
 Fig. 10-46   optiPoint ISDN adapter
 

S0 interface properties  
 •   Supports point-to-point and passive bus connections
 •   Wired for short passive bus configurations
 •   Cable lengths
   -   Maximum 100 m (328 feet) with a cable impedance of 75 ohms
   -   Maximum 200 m (656 feet) with a cable impedance of 150 ohms (complies with CCITT recommendation I.430).
 •   The NT terminating resistors are integrated into the ISDN adapter.

10.5.3.3  

optiPoint phone adapter 
The optiPoint phone adapter is used for connecting a second optiPoint 500 telephone (client telephone) with its own power supply.
The system treats the client telephone as an independent telephone with a separate phone number and its own B channel. The client telephone can send and receive calls regardless of the connection status of the host telephone.
The maximum range between the host and client telephones is approximately 100 m (328 feet) (for J-Y (ST) 2x2x0.6,  0.6 mm).

optiPoint acoustic adapter 
The optiPoint acoustic adapter is used for connecting
 •   a headset (121 TR 9-5) (see Section 10.8.2 "Headsets")
 •   an active loudspeaker box and a desk microphone via the Y cable
 •   busy display/door opener and secondary bell/light paging, etc. (each with its own power supply) via floating contacts (not supported when using the adapter on optiPoint 410 and optiPoint 420).
 Fig. 10-49   optiPoint acoustic adapter
 

Notes on the optiPoint acoustic adapter  
 •   Section 10.5.4 "optiPoint 500 key modules and adapters power supply" contains details on a possible additional external power supply.
 •   The internal components of the optiPoint terminal are deactivated in speakerphone mode if an external microphone and an external loudspeaker are used (sense lead).
 •   optiPoint 500 basic does not support the connection of an external microphone to the optiPoint acoustic adapter.
 •   The speakerphone mode selection is independent of whether the internal or an external speakerphone is used. External speakerphones have precedence over internal speakerphones with the exception of manual intercom and signaling procedures.
 •   The internal microphone, the transmitter inset and any microphone connected to the optiPoint acoustic adapter are muted in the "Mute" audio state.
 •   Ring, alarm and key tones are transferred to the internal loudspeaker and not to an external loudspeaker connected to the optiPoint acoustic adapter.
 •   The volume keys on the optiPoint terminal are used to adjust the volume level of the internal loudspeaker and any connected external loudspeaker. The volume of the external loudspeaker can also be adjusted using the external amplifier.

"Busy" contact  
Signals active telephone states:  
 •   handset lifted
 •   Loudspeaker activated or headset active
These states can be displayed, for example, on external signaling equipment (LED, relay, etc.) The signaling equipment must have its own power supply.  
The contact can be loaded with up to 5 W at 24 Vac or 60 Vdc.

"Call" contact  
Signals the call receipt state.  
This can be used, for example, to control a secondary bell.  
The contact can be loaded with up to 5 W at 24 Vac or 60 Vdc.

optiPoint recorder adapter 
The optiPoint recorder adapter allows an external recorder or a second headset to be connected.
Warning: The called party must be informed that the call is being recorded.

Possible optiPoint Adapter Configurations 

Adapter categories  
Each UP0/E port in the system provides two B channels. This means that you can connect two telephones, each with a separate phone number, to one UP0/E port.
Category 1 optiPoint 500 adapters
The following adapters each require a B channel and, therefore, can only be used once on a host terminal (host terminal requires the second B channel of the
UP0/E port).
 •   optiPoint analog adapter
 •   optiPoint ISDN adapter
 •   optiPoint phone adapter
If one of these adapters is used in the optiPoint 500 advance, only a category 2 adapter can be operated in the second slot.
Category 2 optiPoint 500 adapters
The following adapters can be used on the host and client telephones. This is also true if a category 1 optiPoint 500 adapter is already connected.
 •   optiPoint acoustic adapter
 •   optiPoint recorder adapter

Configuration restrictions  
The voltage feed test can be used to check whether a local power supply is also necessary for an adapter configuration. To avoid any doubts, the test should always be implemented when installing large configurations.  

Number of usable adapters and key modules  
HiPath 3000/5000 shows the maximum number of adapters and key modules that can be connected to Section 10.5.5 "Maximum Configuration for UP0/E Workpoint Clients, Add-On Devices and Adapters". The limits also include the client telephones connected over optiPoint phone adapters and the analog telephones connected over optiPoint analog adapters.
