I am installing two base stations and six phones overall. Four on the first base, two on the second. I have everything programmed ( BCM 450 ), wired out to the base stations. I assigned the unique ports for the phones and registered them all. I cannot get any of them to work. The display will say " cannot find base station " or something like that. What am I missing? I plan on going back with a T7316 and checking to make certain I have dial tone on all the pairs.

Some other tips
-One thing people do wrong is wire out that RJ45 on the back as if it was a data jack when its not.
Do not not start in the middle and work your way out.
First 2 pins on the left is pair 1, next 2 pins is pair 2 and so on - LEFT11223344RIGHT
-Also when adding more than 2 phones to a base , never use the single RJ11 jack.
-Only send the SS code from Handset 1 to base, the other 3 on base just enter password only.
I cannot recall is applies to both e and non e series.
The actual manual is 64 pages roughly and does not come with the unit.....should be on Avaya site.

I'm going to say your wiring is wrong, check it and connect like curly stated above.

I think you guys are on to something. I wired the first base station as follows, crossw-wired to station cable, white/blue blue/white, dial tone 1, white/orange orange/white, dial tone 2, white/green green/white, dial toine 3 and white/brown brown/white dial tone 4. The station cable end was a Cat5 jack which was already wired by the customer's cable vendor. I am a bit confused on how it should be wired.

You might want to call a Nortel tech in on this to figure it out, it' shouldn't be to hard to figure out.

Sorry but you seemed to imply you couldn't figure out the wiring so just offering advice.

Depending how the other end of customer cable (phone/server room) is wired depends what you need to do.
Using patch cables and baseboard jacks to convert can help.
i.e. in server room patch it to a baseboard jack then from the jack wire it to the KSU as needed.
