Mounting The System Equipment
Mounting Considerations
Attach the common equipment cabinet vertically to
any sturdy, flat, surface or vertically rack mounted if
desired.
Locate the cabinet within four (4) feet of a proper
electrical outlet. The system requires a dedicated
117VAC 15 AMP circuit, with a third-wire ground,
supplied to a standard electrical outlet (NEMA
515R).
The distance between the common equipment and
the TELCO/PBX jacks must be 25 feet or less as
per FCC requirements. A nominal distance of 7 feet
is recommended.
The mounting location must be secure and dry and
have adequate ventilation. The temperature range
of the location must be within 32-122 degrees F
(O-50 degrees C), and the relative humidity must be
less than 90 percent non-condensing.
If the mounting surface is damp or if it is concrete or
masonry material, you must attach a backboard to
the mounting surface to be used for common
equipment mounting. Suitable mounting
backboards are available commercially or can
construct one out of i/2-inch plywood cut to size.
Tools and hardware required:
Fasteners - wood screws (l/4 x l-inch round
head), toggle bolts, or wall anchors
Screwdriver-to match fasteners
Electric drill - if prepared holes are required
Connecting tool - for fastening wires to a type-66
connector block.
Crimping tool - for 623-type modular plugs.
