Base Station Installation
This section assumes that your network infrastructure is established and that
your IP PBX phone service has been ordered and configured for your location.
For more information about IP PBX configuration, see the
VSP600A/VSP601A
Administrator and Provisioning Manual
.
You can power the base station using a compatible VTech power adapter or using
Power over Ethernet (PoE) from your network. (The base station requires PoE
Class 2.) If you are not using PoE, install the base station near a power outlet not
controlled by a wall switch. The base station can be placed on a flat surface or
mounted on a wall in a vertical or horizontal orientation.
Avoid placing the base station too close to:
• Communication devices such as television sets, DVD players, or other
cordless telephones
•
Excessive heat sources
•
Noise sources such as a window with traffic outside, motors, microwave
ovens, refrigerators, or fluorescent lighting
•
Excessive dust sources such as a workshop or garage
•
Excessive moisture
•
Extremely low temperature
• Mechanical vibration or shock such as on top of a washing machine or work
bench
