Installation 27
Extremely low temperature
Mechanical vibration or shock, such as on top of the washing machine or
workbench.
ATA Placement Considerations
You can install the optional ATA near the Gateway, or near one of the third-party devices
that are being used with it. For example, it might be easier to connect the ATA to the fax
machine in the room with the fax machine instead of running a telephone line connection
from the fax to an ATA located in a telephone equipment cabinet.
Power Considerations
Ensure that there is an electrical outlet not controlled by a wall switch within 6 feet
(1.83 m) of each device location.
SB67020 Desksets and SB67031 Desksets are also compatible with Power over Ethernet
(PoE). To use PoE, your network needs a switch that provides PoE. Using PoE simplifies
your installation by eliminating the need to route separate power cords. It also allows
you to protect your system from power outages by connecting an Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS) to your PoE switch, Gateways, and ATA. For power requirement
specifications, see page 144.
Other Preparations
Before installing the Gateway and Desksets, the following preparations may need to be
taken:
All PSTN lines must be gathered into one access point situated no more than 9
feet (2.74 m) from the Gateway location. If rewiring is required, contact your
telephone service provider and request the help of a qualified technician.
You may need one or more network switches set up to ensure there are sufficient
ports available for other devices in the network (such as a DSL modem).
If you plan to use the emergency bypass feature on the PSTN Gateway, you will
need an analog phone.
An Ethernet Port must be available within 9 feet (2.74 m) of each Deskset
location. Each Deskset is capable of sharing an Ethernet port with a PC. If one
Ethernet port already exists at a workstation, another port is not necessary
unless you need a GigE Ethernet frame rate. Use a separate Ethernet connection
for the Deskset and the computer.
