Chapter 2: Installing the Voice Mail
Digital Expansion Cards
VANGARD Mail with software version 10.06 or higher. Also requires
VANGARD Mail Cabinet P/N 17770A.
Each digital expansion card (P/N 17774ADIG) provides up to four ports (There are no digital 2-
port cards). A digital port card contains two connectors. Each card on the connector provides two
Voice Mail ports. A VANGARD Mail system supports up to eight ports. The digital VANGARD
Mail is available in either a 4-port or 8-port configurations. If you have a 4-port digital VANGARD
Mail system, you can expand it with 4 additional ports.
Note: The VANGARD Mail Cabinet (P/N 17770A) supports either the digital port card or analog
port cards (P/N 17772A and 17774A). However, you cannot install a digital and an analog
port card in the same system.
Listed below is the required interface equipment for the i-Series phone systems.
Interface equipment for the i-Series phone system:
-
Each analog VM port must be connected to an analog station port on the ASTU Card.
-
For each pair of digital VM ports, you will connect to one digital port. (You will connect-
the Voice Mail to an odd-numbered digital station port. The phone system automatically
reserves the next consecutive even port. When you program the phone system for Voice
Mail, use the odd-numbered port and the next even port.)
-
For every 2 analog VM ports you need,
one RJ14-to-RJ11 adapter and a 2-pair modular line cord
OR
an RJ14 jack, a 2-pair modular cord, and 2-pair station wire.
-
For every 2 digital VM ports, you need:
one 625 modular jack assembly, 2-pair modular line cord and 2-pair station cord.
