This module also allows you to download new firmware. BCM50 First Time Installation and Configuration Guide Special notes Can connect to one of four types of lines: TI, North American PRI, ETSI ISDN (E1), and European PRI (E1).
Wallmount bracket A bracket designed for mounting a BCM50 unit (main unit or expansion unit) to a wall. An optional wiring field card (WFC), which provides RJ-45 connectors for all main unit trunk and station interfaces, is available with the wallmount bracket.
BCM50 First Time Installation and Configuration Guide (N0027149) To install a BCM50 unit The BCM50 can be installed on a rack, on a wall, or on a desktop. Refer to the BCM50 Installation and Maintenance Guide (N027152) for more details on the installation options.
Other screws can damage the unit. Review these messages when stacking BCM50 units on top of one another: Caution: Do not attempt to install a BCM50 unit on top of a wallmounted unit. Wallmounted units must be installed directly on the wall using a wallmount bracket for each unit.

• “To connect the power supply without a UPS” • “To connect the power supply using a UPS” – refer to the BCM50 Installation and Maintenance Guide (N027152). To connect the power supply without a UPS Rotate the retention clip so the power outlet is open.
Connecting the telephony connector Note: You can use the wiring field card (WFC) or rackmount patch panel to simplify the connections of the telephony connector to the BCM50. Refer to the BCM50 Installation and Maintenance Guide (N027152) for more information.

LAN, connect an Ethernet cable between the IP device and one of the additional LAN ports on the BCM50 system (Router card LAN ports, Expansion port, or expansion unit LAN port). Repeat step 3 for each IP device you want to connect to the LAN using the BCM50 switch. Determining DHCP server configuration and IP address Each main unit has a DHCP server.
Refer to more information on disabling the DHCP server. If an external DHCP is present, then the BCM50 system uses the IP configuration supplied by the external DHCP server. In this case, the DHCP server on the main unit supplies only IP Phones with IP configuration information.
DHCP server, this DHCP server responds to the request. By default, the router LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1, and the IP address assigned to the BCM50 system is the first IP address in the DHCP pool. If the DHCP pool started at 192.168.1.190, then the BCM50 is 192.168.1.190 even though the router is 192.168.1.1.
Warning: Do not plug the WAN cable into the system unless the power supply is connected to the main unit and an AC power source with a third-wire ground. Connect one end of a standard telephone cable to the ADSL telephone line provided by your ISP.
This section provides information on configuring the basic BCM50 parameters. You can configure more advanced parameters using Element Manager or Telset Administration after the BCM50 system is operational. For simplicity, the task of configuring the basic BCM50 parameters is divided into two parts: • “Configuring the initial parameters”...
