Loop Distance and Cable Resistance Table 3-3 on
page 3-6. The table assumes the use of twisted pair 24
AWG wire.
1.4 Power Requirements
The KSU cabinet must be within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of
the isolated, dedicated, 105 - 125VAC, 57 - 63Hz, 15A,
single-phase commercial power receptacle. No other
equipment may be connected to the dedicated cir-
cuit.
A surge protector should be used to protect the
KSU from power surges and voltage spikes.
1.5 Environmental Conditions
As a general rule, if environmental conditions are
suitable for office personnel, they also are suitable for
Protegé equipment. The KSU may be safely operated
in temperatures ranging from 32° to 104° Fahrenheit
(0° to 40° Celsius), in relative humidity ranging from
5% to 95% (non-condensing), and at altitudes up to
10,000 feet. Ensure that these conditions will not be
exceeded under any circumstances (such as air con-
ditioning failure and tropical depressions). A prop-
erly controlled environment will extend equipment
life and help ensure reliable system operation.
1.6 Installation Safety Guidelines
(From UL 1459, a product safety specification for
telephone equipment.)
1) Never install telephone wiring during a light-
ning storm.
2) Never install telephone jacks in wet locations
unless the jack is designed for use in wet loca-
tions.
3) Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or
terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
4) Use caution when installing or modifying tele-
phone lines.
1.7 Tools and Supplies
A basic list of tools and supplies required to install
the Protegé® 616 system is provided in the Tools and
Supplies Table. The list is intended for standard
telephony wiring practice. Sites requiring
EIA/TIA568A unshielded, twisted pair wiring stan-
dards require additional components.

KSU, the station equipment and CO lines are
