Do you own a small business? Do you have any remote workers? Then you might be interested in the XBLUE X-50. Supporting both VoIP lines and traditional lines, the X-50 is perfect for companies with up to 49 users. One of the main benefits of this equipment is that it is easy to self-install, which means you can save big bucks from the get-go. But, how exactly does self-installation can save you money?
Keep in mind that the installation and programming can usually double the total cost of the phone system itself. As a small business owner, you certainly do not want to throw money away. If you already own the XBLUE X-50 or you are planning to get one for your business, the telephony experts at TelcoDepot.com have come up with a step-by-step guide to help you install it quickly, and they have shared it with us:

Step 1: Connect the LAN Port and Your Telephone
First of all, connect the LAN port of your X-50 system to the 8 port data switch provided. Also, if you already have an existing data switch, you can use it if you’d like to. To connect your telephone, plug the X-50 telephone into your existing data jack and your computer into your telephone. Both your phone and your computer now work off the same data cabling and jack.
Step 2: Access the Features
The X-50 is an all-inclusive system that’s fully equipped with all of the features your business would ever need which also means no additional hidden expenses to add optional features. Popular features like voicemail, conferencing, automatic receptionist, caller ID and forwarding calls automatically to your cell phone are all standard features on the X-50. And your X-50 telephone’s 6 line backlit LCD display makes all the features very accessible and easy to use.
Step 3: Install Off-Site X-50 Telephones
One of the most renowned advantages of the XBLUE X-50 system is its fully integrated off-site telephone operation for a remote worker or home office. There are no extra costs. In order to install an X-50 telephone off-site, you just need an Internet connection at each remote location.
Step 4: Plug the Modular Console
Just make sure to plug the modular console into the side of your XBLUE X-50 telephone. Luckily, now you can rely on 24 extra buttons for one-touch calling, telephone line appearances and “busy” telephone indication lights to be able to see at a glance who is on the phone.
Step 5: Install Your Telephone Lines
Next, to also keep things simpler for all of your long distance and local telephone calls, the XBLUE X-50 offers a number of great options. You can use traditional telephone lines or VoIP lines. No matter your choice, the installation of your telephone lines is extremely simple. If you use traditional telephone lines, plug your telephone into the port of the system marked “line.” If you select XBLUE’s digitally integrated telephone lines, it’s even easier to install it as you can use your Internet connection to set up all of your telephone lines.
Step 6: Plug In the Power Cord
The last step for the quick installation guide is to simply plug in the X-50 server power cord. The X-50 phones are automatically ready to go and you’re done with the physical installation.
