Installation and Operation

Link WTS – Link 150 M3 MCU

When cabling an external Base Station or a Base Station with wiring that
exits the building, protect all Base Station wiring with the Quick Clip Fuse
(Illinois Tool Works, Linx Division, SCP-2X2) before bridging with other
Base Station power leads.

Run all cable before attaching the RJ-45 connectors to the Base Stations. Label both
the demarcation block end and the Base Station end of each wire with the Base
Station number using a wire tie marker or other form of marker.



Remove bridge taps, multiples, or “Y” connections to the Base Station
wires; these will cause data transmission errors.
The area above some suspended ceilings is used as an environmental air
plenum. The NEC requires that wire installed in plenums be rated for
plenum installation.

5.3 Terminate Cable at Base Station Locations

After running the wire to the Base Station location, terminate the wire using an RJ-
45 modular crimp-on plug. Connect the data pair to pins 1 and 2, and the power pair
to pins 7 and 8.
If the connection uses more than two pair, refer to the table on the following page.



To avoid damage to the connectors or crimps, be sure to run the wire to
the Base Station before connecting the RJ-45 connectors.
