Explanation
Connecting analog intercoms to Teams Phone requires a two-part solution because analog devices cannot natively communicate with Teams. The ATAs (which convert analog signals to SIP) must register with a Teams-certified SBC (C), and that SBC must be linked to Teams via Direct Routing (E) - together these form the complete bridge: intercom → ATA → SBC → Teams Phone. Neither step alone is sufficient; the SBC needs Direct Routing enabled to pass calls into Teams, and the ATAs need an SBC to register against.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A (Trusted application endpoint): Used for Skype for Business/third-party app integration, not analog device connectivity.
- B (Resource account per intercom): Resource accounts assign identities to call queues/auto attendants - they don't establish the physical/SIP connectivity path for an analog device.
- D (Configuration profile for IP phones): Configuration profiles manage Teams-certified IP desk phones, not ATAs or analog hardware.
Memory tip: Think of the chain - Analog → ATA → SBC → Teams. C covers the ATA-to-SBC link (registration), and E covers the SBC-to-Teams link (Direct Routing). Both links must exist for the chain to work, so the answer always needs both.
