Back-Board Installation

A wooden back-board is recommended for all installations and must be
installed when the location has masonry or plasterboard walls. A 1/2 inch
plywood material is sufficient for most installations. The back-board
should be mounted at a convenient height, about 3 feet above the floor
and bolted in a number of places to distribute the weight of the system.
Space should be available on the right side of the back-board for the MDF
cabling and for optional equipment such as a music source. It is
recommended the location of each major item be roughly sketched on
the back-board as an installation layout.
The location must have access to a dedicated 110 Volt AC (±10%), 60
Hz, single-phase circuit with a circuit breaker or fuse rated at 15 amps.
A 3-wire (parallel blade grounded outlet should be within
approximately 6 feet of the lower left rear of the BKSU mounting.
The location must have access to a good earth ground, such as a
metallic cold water pipe with no non-metallic joints. The ground
source should be located as close as possible to the system.
The system should be located in an area which is well ventilated with
a recommended temperature range of 68°-78° F and a relative
humidity range of 5-60% (non condensing).
The system should be located within 25 feet of the telephone
company' s termination point. Also, the location should be within the
prescribed station loop lengths for all keysets and terminals. If
existing cabling is to be used, the location of existing cabling and
conduits should be considered.
Protection from flooding, flammable materials, excessive dust and
vibration.
Proximity of radio transmitting equipment, arc-welding devices,
copying machines and other electrical equipment that are capable of
generating electrical interferences. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference in which case the user,
at their own expense, is required to take whatever measures may be
required to correct the interference.
