Preparing for Installation

Mail System Hardware

The mail system includes the following hardware components:

■Mail system cabinet

■Wall mount and cable manager bracket

NOTE:

The cabinet and bracket together are referred to as the system unit.

■7-foot (2.13m) modular D4BU telephone cords (two-pair, standard phone connection)— 2 for a two-port system, 4 for a four-port system, or 6 for a six-port system.

■Power cord—6-foot (1.83m), 3-prong, male/female ends

■Modem cable

■Four No. 8 3/4-inch pan-head sheet metal screws for mounting the system unit on plywood.

NOTE:

If you are mounting the system unit on a surface other than plywood, you will need 4 No. 8 screws of the appropriate type for the wall and the weight of the system unit. For example, if mounting to wall studs through drywall, use No. 8 1-3/4-inch (or longer) pan-head sheet metal screws.

■Remote Maintenance Device and one modular telephone cord (shipped in a separate box).

Communications System Hardware

The following communications system equipment is required to install the mail system:

■PARTNER II Release 3 or later or PARTNER Plus Release 3.1 or later processor module

■206 modules, Release 2 or later

NOTE:

You can connect up to five voice mail ports on a 206 module.

The top, or first, port on a 206 module is the power-failure port and should NOT be used to connect either a voice mail port or the Remote Maintenance Device.
