4. INSTALLATION
4.1 OVERVIEW
As with any sophisticated communications device, installation of iPECS-LIK50 require the care and
forethought of a competent technician. Recommended installation proceeds in 6 major steps:
Site Preparation
Equipment verification
Cabinet/Desk/Wall Mount Holder installation, as required
Module installation and wiring
LIP Phone and other terminal installation
System Programming and Verification
By utilizing the instructions that follow, the installation is quick and efficient. Directions for system
programming and verification are given in the iPECS Admin & Program Manual.
4.2 SITE PREPARATION
4.2.1 General site consideration
The first step is to locate an acceptable site for the Module mounting hardware (Desk Mount
Holder, Wall Mount Holder or 1U Rack Mounting Bracket). When locating the mounting site, the
following points must be considered:
The iPECS-LIK50 can be Desk, 19” Rack or Wall mounted.
The location must have access to an appropriate 100~240 VAC @ 50-60 Hz power source
with a circuit breaker or fuse rated at 1 A and must be surge protected. An appropriate
grounded outlet should be within approximately 2 meters (6 feet) of the equipment location.
When employing the Desk Mount Holder, an outlet will be required for each Module; a
multi-outlet extension cord can be used.
The location must have access to a good protective earth ground, such as a metallic cold
water pipe with no non-metallic joints. The ground source should be located as close as
possible to the equipment.
The system should be located in a well-ventilated area with a temperature of around 20
0
C
(68
0
F) and a relative humidity of 0-80% (non-condensing).
The equipment should be located within 8 meters (25 feet) of the telephone company's
termination point. If the system is to share the LAN with data devices or be connected to an
external VoIP network, the system must be within 100 meters (330 feet) of the WAN
connection. Also, the location should be within the prescribed station loop lengths for all
phones and terminals refer to section 3.4.3. If existing cabling is employed, the location of
existing cabling and conduits should be considered.
The location should have adequate accessibility, space and lighting for future servicing and
should consider the need for future expansion.
