Site location

As with most electronic equipment, the environmental considerations for this site need to observe good common
sense. Provide a dry, clean, and accessible area.
Locate space in the telephone equipment room, which will provide easy connection to the termination blocks and
110 VAC power. The location should be no further than 1,000 feet from the farthest station.
Ambient room temperature must be 40
Notes: Do not place the equipment or run station cabling near high voltage electrical equipment or electrical lines
susceptible to high voltage surges from air conditioner compressors, etc.
Do not mount the equipment in a place that receives direct sunlight.

Mounting the cabinet(s)

If wall-mounted, the system and supporting components should be mounted to a half-inch (or thicker)
plywood backboard. To wall-mount a Base Cabinet or Expansion Cabinet, use the five tabs located at the rear of
the cabinet. The center tab has an enlarged hole and slot, to allow you to fix the screw on the wall before
hanging the cabinet onto the screw. Once you've done so, fasten the other screws into the four remaining holes
to finish securing the cabinet onto the wall.
To rack-mount a Base Cabinet or Expansion Cabinet, use the forward-facing screw holes on the sides of the
cabinet. Only two screws are needed per side (in fact, on most server racks, you can't use all four screws on
each side).
Allow room for installation of the Expansion Cabinet either now or in the future; the Expansion Cabinet must be
installed directly below the Base Cabinet. Allow about two inches of clearance between the units, for cabling.
Attach the power transformer to the wall or rack, allowing sufficient length in both cords to reach the power
connector on the front side of the cabinet and to reach a UPS or a dedicated 110 VAC outlet.
