SpectraLink Corporation Installation and Operation
Link WTS – Link 150 M3 MCU
5.5 Install Demarc Blocks
The demarcation blocks used to connect the telephone system and Base Stations to
the MCU should be installed on a typical telephone facility backboard. A 1/2” or
3/4” thick board mounted on the wall near the MCU is typical. Although this
manual uses 66 blocks as examples, any standard cross-connect blocks are
acceptable.
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.
If the cabling between the MCU and the telephone system leaves the
building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and local codes
for instructions on providing lightning and other over-current protection.
5.6 Assign and Program Ports
The wire contractor should inform the system administrator which port numbers
have been designated for the handsets and the remote diagnostics modem line.
The system administrator must assign extension numbers to the handsets and plan
the functions (trunk access, toll restrictions, system features, ringing options, etc.) to
be programmed for the handsets. This programming will be done after the handsets
are registered, but will be faster if it is planned in advance by verifying the parameters
and features on the current telephone system and wired phones.
For details, refer to the for the type of PBX in use at your location.
