Installation overview
The Remote IPE service over a fiber-optic link can be added to an existing
system originally installed and operating without Remote IPE, or it can be
an integral part of a newly installed system.
To install a new system or expand an existing one, refer to Communication
Server 1000M and Meridian 1 Large System Installation and
Commissioning (NN43011-310) () . It provides the information on how to
install, verify, and maintain Large Systems.
Adding one or more Remote IPE sites to a system is treated as a
straightforward system expansion; that is, the system should be fully

This simplifies installation and fault isolation during installation.
To complete the installation of a Remote IPE site, do the following:
