QGFSP Installation

Power supp ly

The power supply is selected by the service
provider and the installer based on the
availability of power at your location. The
power supply provides +12 volts to the
junction box and RAU.
QUALCOMM sells a power supply for use with the QGFSP. If
you do not have a reliable source of AC power, your service
provider may have elected to provide power by another means
such as a solar panel system or a gas generator. QUALCOMM
does not sell these alternative power systems. Please contact
your service provider for details regarding them.
Note
Your installer will have equipped your installation
with a power supply.
The installation is described in detail in the
QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-2800/2900 Fixed
Satellite Phone Installation Guide (80-98052-1).
What you need to do
If your service provider did not supply a telephone, you will
need to purchase a commercially available two-wire telephone
set. You can either purchase a qualified and tested telephone
from QUALCOMM or you can choose one of your own.

Select a telephone

If you are selecting your own telephone, look for one that uses
standard DTMF tones (industry standard tones), not pulses,
for dialing.
You must select a telephone that uses Tip and Ring. Your
service provider may be able to direct you to a supplier.
For optimal results, a telephone should have good voice quality.
Sound quality is determined by the telephone itself, as well as
by signal reception. Your service provider representative can
ensure proper placement of components to o btain the best
signal reception.
Note
You may need to try several telephones before you
find one that offers good voice quality when used with
the QGFSP.
