Mounting the Base Station
The base station is suitable for mounting indoors on a wall.
The base stations are designed to only be mounted on the wall at least 2,40 m (8ft) off the ground but
no higher than 6 m (20ft). The connectors can be pointed either up or down. The base stations
should not be flush mounted to the ceiling as it would affect signal propagation. If ceiling mounting is
a requirement, the base stations could be drop mounted from the ceiling in the same orientation (i.e.,
vertical) and height (no higher than 6 m (20ft) from ground as described for wall mounting. If mount-
ing base stations higher than 6 m (20ft) off the ground, coverage directly underneath the base station
will be impacted.
Wall Mounted (Vertical) Installation RF Coverage
For best RF coverage, the base station must be mounted vertically on walls. The antennas must
always be kept perpendicular to the floor.
Caution:
l The base station must not be installed at any angle other than vertical.
l Do not mount the base station on soft surfaced walls such as those covered with
canvas, metal or sponge-like materials.
How to Wall Mount the Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station
The base station must be mounted vertically on the wall for best coverage.
1. Use a twisted pair cable, cat. 5e or higher between the base station and the network switch.
2. Mount the base station onto the wall using the screws accompanying the base station.
Note:
When you place the base station on the screws, ensure that the screws do not
touch the printed circuit board.
