Site Preparation

Expansion shelves cannot be located more than 17 cable feet from the Primary Shelf.

All digital interface modules must be within 250 feet of the telephone system.

See your telephone system specifications for distance limitations for analog modules.

Location of the Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300) adjacent to the shelves on a multi-shelf system.

The Primary Shelf containing the System Controller (CSC- or CSO306 or 320) must be mounted to allow connection to the JPI300 with a five-foot cable.

Expansion Shelves (CSC300 or CSO300) must be mounted to allow connection of the shelf to the JPI300 using 12 feet or less of cabling.

Space for the -48V power supply connections. Power supply conduit requires clearance of 1.5” on the rear or side of the shelves.

Maximum loop length specifications of the telephone system

Maximum wire distance from the MCU to a Base Station (6,000 feet)

Cabling for the Interface Modules and Controller cards. All cables (except power) are connected to the front face of the cards. Space is provided to route wiring to the back of the shelf.

Prepare rack or wall

The SpectraLink 6300 MCU can be mounted in a rack or on the wall. Rack or wall support must be adequate to support the number of shelves to be installed. Each fully loaded SpectraLink 6300 MCU shelf weighs approximately 35 pounds.

Rack mounting

Before installing shelves in a rack, be sure the rack is mechanically fastened to the floor or wall such that it properly supports the number of shelves to be mounted. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to prepare the rack.

Be sure to leave 1.5” clearance at the rear of the racks for power conduit.
