Requirements
Verify that you meet the prerequisites detailed in the following sections
before you install the NBX 100.
Verify that the site meets the following electrical requirements.
In North America, each NBX chassis requires a standard 110 VAC
I
electrical connection.
The NBX 100 should have its own breaker-protected circuit, which
I
uses the standard three-wire grounded configuration.
Verify that there are enough outlets and circuit capacity in the chosen
I
location to power the NBX 100 chassis and any auxiliary equipment
you install, such as a paging amplifier and an MOH device. The label
on the side of the chassis lists the electrical requirements of the
system.
Each Business Telephone needs a 110 VAC power outlet.
I
CAUTION: 3Com strongly recommends that you use UL listed surge
protection devices for the telephones and the local telephone lines and
an uninterruptible power supply for the chassis.
For electrical requirements outside of North America, consult Setting Up
the NBX 100 Communications System Outside North America. This guide
is on the NBX 100 Resource Pack CD.
You can install the NBX 100 chassis in any clean, dry, well-ventilated
location. Take these environmental guidelines into consideration:
The area must be safe from water damage. A wet basement, a utility
I
closet, or an area near a window are not proper locations.
CAUTION: Do not use the NBX 100 Communications System outdoors.
