Page 5: What You Need To Know
What You Need to Know Slot and Port Numbers Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 have built in ports and slots to accommodate modules and interface cards that include the Enhanced High-Speed WAN Interface Card (EHWIC) and the Packet Voice and Data Module (PVDM3). - Page 6 Installing the Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways Mounting Screws Mounting Screws Two types of mounting screws are provided in separate packages to attach the mounting brackets to the chassis. Take care to use the correct screw type and washers for the required mounting option (rack mounting or wall mounting).
- Page 7 If the Cisco VG310 or Cisco VG320 is installed in an enclosed rack with a ventilation fan at the top, make sure that heated air drawn upward from other equipment does not pass through the Cisco VG310 or Cisco VG320 chassis.
- Page 8 Installing the Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways Mounting the Chassis on a Wall Figure 3: Attaching the Chassis to the 19-Inch Rack Mounting the Chassis on a Wall Before you begin Warning This unit is intended to be mounted on a wall. Read the wall-mounting instructions carefully before beginning installation.
- Page 9 Installing the Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways Mounting the Chassis on a Wall Figure 4: Attaching the Brackets for Wall Mounting Step 2 Attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the chassis. Step 3 Orient the chassis to ensure that the back panel with connectors faces sideways.
- Page 10 This facilitates proper airflow through and around the chassis. 2. Place the unit on a smooth, flat surface. Installing the Ground Connection To ground the Cisco VG310 or Cisco VG320 chassis, follow this procedure: Before you begin Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor.
- Page 11 Installing the Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways Connecting Cables Procedure Step 1 Locate a suitable ground location. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between various ground locations: • Between the ground of a junction box (outlet) and the ground of a power tap •...
- Page 12 Installing the Cisco VG310 and Cisco VG320 Voice Gateways LAN and Power Cables Warning To prevent accidental discharge in the event of a power line cross, route on-premise wiring away from power cables and off-premise wiring, or use a grounded shield to separate the on-premise wiring from the power cables and off-premise wiring.

Page 13: Connecting Power
Caution The Cisco chassis provides inputs for both AC and DC power. Design your installation to use only one type of power. Do not use AC and DC power at the same time. If you do, the unit stops operating, and you must reboot it with only a single power source. - Page 14 Install a power conditioner if necessary. The Cisco VG310 or Cisco VG320 voice gateway with AC power supply autoselects either 100–127 volt or 200–240 volt operation. AC versions include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical power cord. A label near the power cord indicates the correct voltage, frequency, current draw, and power dissipation.
- Page 15 • When you make the settings for the DC source voltage, you must consider the voltage drops between the DC power supply and the DC input connector on Cisco VG310 or Cisco VG320. To ensure optimal performance, the input voltage at the DC input connector should not be less than 11.5 V.
