Introduction
3
The 4600 Series IP Telephones use Internet Protocol (IP) technology with Ethernet line interfaces.
The IP telephones supplement the existing DEFINITY
® /MultiVantage TM IP Solutions platform. This
feature provides the user with the capability to natively administer and maintain the new 4600
Series IP Telephones.
The 4600 Series IP Telephones provide support for DHCP and TFTP over IPv4/UDP which
enhance the administration and servicing of the phones. These phones use DHCP to obtain
dynamic IP addresses and TFTP to download new versions of software for the phones.
The 4600 Series IP Telephones provide the ability to have one connection on the desktop for both
the telephone set and the PC using the telephone’s built-in hub.
