Install Outdoor Base Stations
Outdoor Base Stations (RCO400) are equipped with a protective
enclosure, designed to be mounted to a wall or pole. After the
enclosure is mounted, the Base Station is inserted in the enclosure and
connected.
The customer’s wire contractor is responsible for wiring and
mounting the outdoor Base Station enclosure. The contractor is
responsible for supplying screws, brackets, and other appropriate
hardware.
If the wiring between the MCS300 and the telephone system leaves
the building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and
local codes for instructions on providing lightning and other over-
current protection.
Wire outdoor Base Stations
If the wiring for a Base Station exits a building—whether to reach an
outdoor Base Station location or to reach a Base Station in another
building—it should be equipped with primary protection according
to the NEC and/or local codes.
Wiring that exits the building must also be protected at both ends
by a Quick Clip Fuse from Reliable Electric, part number RSCP-2.
Insert the Quick Clip fuses in place of bridging clips on a 66 block
for the non-internal Base Station circuits.
Mount and connect outdoor Base Stations
1. Mount the outdoor Base Station enclosure to a wall or pole. The
enclosure should be attached at the highest point available that
will provide central coverage for the outdoor area.
2. Insert the Base Station wire through the compression fitting and
tighten the fitting.
3. Wire the Base Station connector the same way as the RJ-45
connectors for the indoor Base Stations.
4. Place the Base Station inside the enclosure with the part number
label facing the back of the enclosure.
