Before you begin the installation process, be sure to:
• Choose a suitable setup location
Make sure the location is dry, ventilated, dust free, static free, and free from corrosive
chemicals
• Verify system power requirements
The appropriate standard power cord is supplied with the system. The power supply will
accept any input voltage from 85 to 264 volts without the need to select a voltage range.
• Verify cabling requirements
The cabling shipped with your system should include:
•
BRI/PRI/LAN patch cables, 5 meters each.
• RS232 cable, 1.8 meters. This is for the console port. This cable is a 9-pin female to 9-pin
female null modem cable. Jack screws are included.
Note: The BRI/PRI/LAN cables are straight-through CAT5 patch cables. The quantity
shipped varies, based on device requirements. These cables are not distinguished
from each other in the carton.
We provide a cable for the 10Base-T port since it is typically used for the LAN connection.
However, if you plan to use the AUI port instead, you must provide your own cabling and
MAU for this connection. If you need additional cabling (other than what was shipped),
contact your distributor.
• Verify administration console requirements
In order to install system software, you must have a PC or workstation available. (One is
not provided with the system.) This PC or workstation will connect up to the system via
the RS232 port. You will also need a communications package that supports terminal
emulation software (in order to transfer software to the system).
For details on software installation, refer to the Software Installation chapter.
