Your New ATA

Your analog telephone adapter (ATA) allows you to connect an analog device, such as an analog phone or

fax machine, to your network. The connected device can then function like the IP phones in your network.

Your new analog telephone adapter (ATA) has two interfaces:

• Two RJ11 ports for analog devices

• A RJ45 port for Ethernet

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the ATA provide status.

Install your ATA with the components that are included in the box.

You'll perform these tasks:

• Install your ATA with the components in the box.

Devices Associated with Your ATA

Use your ATA to connect these types of devices to your network:

• Analog phones

• Analog phones have no softkeys.

• The information that analog phones display depends on the model you have.

• You use the phone’s flash button for hold, resume, transfer, and conference.

Your ATA

• Analog telephony voice devices

• The ATA supports analog telephony voice devices, such as overhead paging adapters and answering

machines, that emulate a regular phone.

• Overhead paging systems

• Overhead paging systems provide alarms and public-address announcements in buildings.

• Fax machines

• Use a fax machine directly with an ATA. Don’t connect an extension to a fax machine, and don’t

use the fax machine with a splitter.

• To reduce fax failures, use overseas mode, if available; if not, set the fax machine transmission

speed to low.

• Data devices, such as facsimile machines and modems, may not function optimally. For the best

fax and modem performance, continue to use a dedicated PSTN line.

Cisco ATA 191 and ATA 192 Hardware

The ATA 191 and ATA 192 are compact, easy to install devices.

The unit provides these connectors:

• 5V DC power connector.

• Two RJ-11 FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) ports—Your ATA has two RJ-11 ports that work with any

standard analog phone device. Each port supports either voice calls or fax sessions, and both ports can

be used simultaneously.

• One WAN network port—An RJ-45 10/100BASE-T data port to connect an Ethernet-capable device to

the network.

The ATA 192 includes an extra LAN Ethernet port—An RJ-45 10/100BASE-T data port to connect to

a device on your network, such as a computer, using an Ethernet cable.

The ATA network port performs autonegotiation for duplex and speed. It supports speeds of 10/100 Mbps

and full-duplex.

Install Your New ATA

Your ATA comes with everything to power it up, connect it to the network, and set it up on your desk.

Before you begin

Before you begin the installation, make sure you have the following equipment:

• Ethernet cable to connect to your network.

• Analog phone or fax machine to connect to your ATA.

• Phone cable to connect your phone.

• Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to provide backup power.

Procedure

Step 1 Connect the network cable to your network and to the NETWORK port on the ATA.

Step 2 Connect the phone cable to the PHONE 1 port on the ATA and to your analog device (phone or fax machine).

Your ATA

Install Your New ATA

If connecting a fax machine, connect it directly to the ATA. Do not connect an extension to a fax machine,

and do not use a splitter.

Step 3 (Optional) If you have a second analog device, connect the phone cable to the PHONE 2 port on the ATA

and to your second analog device.

Step 4 Connect the ATA power cable to the DC 5V POWER port on the ATA, and plug the power cable into your

power source.

Phone Adapter Configuration Utility

You can configure or customize some phone features with the Phone Adapter Configuration Utility webpage.

Your administrator gives you the page URL, your user ID, and password.

In the Configuration Utility page, you can view some network and administration settings, as well as some

basic information about your ATA, such as firmware version, serial number, and memory use.

Most people use the Phone Adapter Configuration Utility page to set up a few basic features such as Speed

dial or Call forward. To set up these features, refer to the following table.

The following table describes the phone features that you configure from the Phone Adapter Configuration

Utility webpage.

Table 3: Configuration Utility Features

DescriptionFeature

You specify the number that will receive calls when

call forward is enabled on the phone. Use the

Configuration Utility page to set up more complicated

call forward functions, for example, when your line
