SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Facility Preparation

Operator’s Console and software when the card is installed. Interface Modules of different interface types can be mixed within a shelf.

Interface Modules are “hot swappable”; they can be removed and replaced without affecting service on the rest of the system.

Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300)

The Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300) connects Expansion Shelf Controllers on expansion shelves to the system controller, creating a completed communication channel between network elements. The Intershelf Junction Panel physically connects the network, converting RJ-21 connections from the System Controller to the RJ-45 connection on the Shelf Controller.

Base Stations

Radio Base Stations,or cells, provide the communication channel between the MCU and the handsets. The Base Station and handset use digital spread spectrum radio transmission in the 902-928 MHz frequency band.

Each Base Station supports multiple users and covers a transmission area in excess of 50,000 square feet. The signal propagation is dependent on transmission obstructions within the building. A call is passed from one Base Station to another as the user walks throughout the coverage area. The SpectraLink 6000 System is designed to provide seamless coverage, enabling real-time hand-off of active calls.
