Choosing a location

Choose a site for the CallPilot server by considering following factors:

•The DS30 cables that connect the NTRH40CA MPB96 board on the CallPilot server to the MGate card on the switch can be up to 600 meters (1968 feet) long. This allows you to install the CallPilot server in a different building from the switch.

•The DS30X cable that connects the NTRH40AA MPB96 board on the CallPilot server to the MGATE card on the switch is 20 meters (60 feet) long. The total distance from switch to CallPilot must be taken into consideration. Include rack transitions, cable bends, and any routing necessary in your calculations before you install.

•A monitor, keyboard, and mouse are required to connect to the CallPilot server for local console access. These peripherals should be located in the same rack as the CallPilot server, or at least within visual distance of the server’s status LEDs.

•The area must have proper cooling and airflow. Consider installing a shelf with perforated holes for the peripheral devices, above or below the CallPilot server.

Preparing the site

Perform the following procedure to prepare the site for the CallPilot server.

Step Action

1Ensure that the site is clean and clear of any debris.

2Place a table or secure surface near the install location of the CallPilot server for unpacking and inspection.

The surface or table should be large enough to accommodate a .9 m X .9 m (3’ X 3’) box weighing approximately 10.4 kg (23 lbs) for the 600r CallPilot server, or 20 kg (44 lbs) for the 1005r CallPilot server.

3Place an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) mat on the unpacking surface.
