1.0 Installing The Common Equipment Cabinet
1.1 Considering The Mounting Parameters
•
Choose a suitable location.
A suitable location is within four feet of a proper electrical outlet. (The main cabinet and two expansion
cabinets requires two dedicated 117VAC 15 AMP circuits, with a third-wire ground, supplied to standard
NEMA 5-15R electrical outlets. Each outlet must be supplied from the opposite phase of the AC power line.
A suitable location provides a distance between the common equipment and the TELCO/PBX jacks of 25
feet or less as per FCC requirements. (Good engineering practices recommend a nominal distance of 7 feet.)
A suitable location allows enough room between the top and bottom of the main cabinet and the ceiling or
floor of the equipment room for placement of one expansion cabinet above and one expansion
cabinet below the main cabinet.
A suitable location is secure and dry and has adequate ventilation. The temperature range of a suitable
location is within 32–122 degrees F (0-50 degrees C), and the relative humidity is less than 90 percent
non-condensing .
