Installing the Avaya S8700 Media Server with an Avaya G650 Media Gateway

Off-premises or out-of-building stations
Out-of-building campus stations are telephones not physically located in the same building as the
equipment room but located on the same property. Only analog telephones connected to TN746B,
TN769, or TN2183 Analog Line circuit packs can be installed out-of-building.
Off-premises connections
Figure 84, Connections for 1 to 8 out-of-building analog telephones,
on page 215 shows the connections
for 1 to 8 off-premises analog telephones.
Figure 85, Connections to 24 out-of-building telephones,
on page 216 shows the connections for up to 24
off-premises analog telephones. Concentrations of analog line pairs are used at both buildings to
minimize the off-premises wiring required. At the MDF, jumpers must be connected between one
row/connecting block in the white field and up to three rows/connecting blocks in the purple field. At the
station location, a WP-90929, List 1 Concentrator Cable is used. There are eight station appearances on
each of the three fingers of the concentrator cable.
The maximum distance from the media gateway to the out-of-building telephone is 6,000 feet (1,829
meters) using 24 AWG (#5) (0.5 square millimeters) wire.
The maximum range of out-of-building analog telephones (500-, 2500-, or 7100-types) connected to an
analog line circuit pack should be such that the maximum loop resistance does not exceed 1,300 ohms.
