ISDN Services
The ISDN Network Service is used to define the properties of the ISDN switch and the ISDN lines running
from the ISDN switch to the ISDN card installed in the Collaboration Server, which also can be initially
configured through Fast Configuration Wizard.
Before configuring the ISDN Network Service, obtain the following information from your ISDN Service
Provider:
• Switch Type
• Line Coding and Framing
• Numbering Plan
• Numbering Type
• Dial-in number range
Note:
Connection to public ISDN network
If the RealPresence Collaboration Server is connected to the public ISDN Network, an external
CSU or similar equipment is needed.
Preparing the Installation Site
This section describes the requirements your site must meet for the safe installation and operation of the
system.
Safety Requirements

• Look carefully for potential hazards in your work area: moist floors, ungrounded power cables,
frayed power cords, missing safety grounds and so forth.
• Locate the main circuit breaker within the room.
• Locate the emergency power OFF switch within the room.
• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit.
• Use only the power cord supplied with the system.
• Each power cord should only be connected to a power outlet that has a protective ground contact.
• Ensure that the power cord is easily accessible from the back of the system at all times.
• Place the equipment in a well-ventilated area where the vents are free from obstruction.
• Do not place heavy objects directly on top of the RealPresence Collaboration Server unit.
• Do not use liquids around your equipment.
Rack Mount Safety Precautions
The following precautions should be followed with regards to rack mount safety:
• Keep the area around the RealPresence Collaboration Server clean and free of clutter.
• Decide on a suitable location for the equipment rack that will hold the RealPresence Collaboration
Server unit. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where
heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a
