installation instructions
Description
The (optional) Cellular Gateway is sold as a kit (part
number MX16CELL) and provides an internet connection
for the MX16US panel, allowing 2-way VoIP calls when a
wired Local IT network is not available.
The MX16CELL kit includes a Cellular Gateway (LTE router)
an antenna, antenna cable, a PoE Injector (PoE), and an
ABS enclosure with hardware.
The Cellular Gateway is to be installed in the ABS enclo-
sure; the ABS enclosure must be installed indoors in
the same building as the MX16US. The Cellular Gateway
antenna can be mounted to the enclosure as described in
this manual; alternately, the antenna can be mounted to
a suitable nearby surface, however the antenna must be
indoors and in a location that receives a reliable cellular
network signal.
The PoE Injector is to be installed inside the MX16US
panel, adjacent to the Gateway Dialer on a mounting plate.
The Cellular Gateway is intended to be installed and oper-
ated in the VoCALL 16US system without the need for
programming or additional device management configura-
tion.
The Cellular Gateway requires a data plan activated
through a compatible cellular service provider. The end
customer is responsible for establishing and maintaining
an account and expenses associated with the cellular
service provider. A data plan allowance of 5 GB/month is
recommended. Typical data usage between the Dialer and
the VoIP service provider is approximately 100 MB/day.
