Quick start Intercom Server GE 300 The Intercom Server GE 300/GE 300WR has been designed to meet the internal communication de- mands of small and middle sized companies and organisations. Different functions of modern internal communication such as Intercom, information and control can be integrated into a single system. By means of subscriber cards with different feature levels and additional interfaces the Intercom Server can be adapted to the individual needs with ease.

(see page 23). Example: If an Intercom Server GE 300 is operated with an 60 W power supply unit, it is possible to supply max. 36 subscribers via the Intercom Server using an Intercom Server with an expansion hous- ing.
GE 300 2. Additional components 2. Additional components General In addition to the Intercom Server, for start up of the system the following components are required: Subscriber cards: Subscriber cards handle the speech communication as well as subscriber specific functions. For connection of IP-based, digital and analogue subscribers, various cards are available in four feature levels (B, C, D and P).

ATTENTION: Installation GE 300, GE 300WR and GEZ 300 For DC power supply of the combination of a GE 300 and GEZ 300, one of the components must be supplied via an additional galvanically isolated DC/DC power supply. This does not apply to the com- bination of a GE 300WR and GEZ 300, as the GE 300WR comes with a built-in galvanically isolated DC/DC power supply.
