Chapter 2 – Installing and Cabling the

MultiVOIP

Introduction

The MVP210 MultiVOIP models are tabletop units that can be handled easily by one person. However, the
MVP410 and MVP810 MultiVOIPs are somewhat heavier units. When these units are to be installed into a rack,
two able-bodied persons should participate. Please read the safety notices before beginning installation.

Safety Warnings

Lithium Battery Caution

A lithium battery on the voice/fax channel board provides backup power for the timekeeping capability. The
battery has an estimated life expectancy of ten years. When the battery starts to weaken, the date and time may
be incorrect. If the battery fails, the board must be sent back to Multi-Tech Systems for replacement.
Warning: There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

Safety Warnings Telecom

1. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
2. Never install a telephone jack in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
3. This product is to be used with UL and UL listed computers.
4. Never touch un-insulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the

network interface.

5. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
