Base Stations - Avaya DECT R4 Installation Manual

1.2 Base Stations

DECT R4 supports three base station variants; the BS330, the Compact Base Station and the BS340. They differ in aerial
connection and in the number of simultaneous calls supported. During installation, one of the base stations is configured
as the master base station for the DECT R4 system. Any other base stations are configured as slave base stations.
Each base station includes a detachable bracket for use in wall mounting of the base station. Each base station requires a
LAN access point and is supplied with a 1.2 metre (4 foot) LAN cable.
Each base station can be powered using IEEE 802.3af power over ethernet (PoE 7W Class 2). Alternatively the base
station also requires a main power supply outlet socket within 8 metres (26 feet) cable distance and power supply unit.
· BS330
The BS330 has 2 integral internal aerials which cannot be adjusted. The aerials produce a slightly directional
pattern of radio coverage. The base station supports up to 8 simultaneous calls.
· Compact Base Station
The Compact Base Station is physically the same as the BS330 but only supports 4 simultaneous calls. Up to 5
Compact Base Station units can be included in a system. If used as the master base station, the whole system
is limited to 5 base stations. Compact Base Station are only supported if all the other base stations are running
firmware version 3.3.11 or later.
· BS340
The BS340 has 2 external aerials. These aerials produce an even pattern of radio coverage. The base station
supports up to 8 simultaneous calls. The aerials can be disconnected and replaced by a various other
aerials if different radio coverage patterns and range is required. This type of base station in not supported in
11

The base stations include a detachable bracket for use for wall mounting or column mounting of the base station. This also
allows the base stations to be removed for maintenance.
