Installation Guide
Version C, July 2004
Part Number 15469.0100
SignalPath Software Version 1100
This
Installation Guide
presents a quick, standard installation of the SP201-SA.
Note:
The needs of your network may require an installation that varies from the standard installation.
For a customized installation, see the
SP201-SA Customization and Maintenance Guide
. For hardware
information, see the
SP201-SA Hardware Reference Guide
.
The SP201-SA is available in two versions:
• The two-port SP201-SA, supporting one trunk circuit of up to 30 channel circuits
• The four-port SP201-SA, supporting up to two trunk circuits of up to 30 channel circuits each (for a total
of up to 60 channel circuits)
Note:
A standard trunk circuit (from one external device, through the SP201-SA, to another external
device) comprises trunk connections to two ports. The SignalPath™ configuration software defines each
side of the trunk circuit (that is, each connection to a port) as a trunk.
This document uses the term
trunk
to indicate a connection to one port; it uses the term
trunk circuit
to
indicate the complete end-to-end connection (over two ports). Using these definitions, a trunk circuit
comprises two trunks.
Before you start this installation, be sure you have filled out the worksheet for adding this device to your
network. See the
SP201-SA Site Planning Worksheet
