The Link Wireless Telephone System
•
Master Control Unit (MCU)
– serves as the connecting point, or gateway, between
the Base Stations and the existing telephone system. One or more of these boxes
(approximately 12 x 3 x 7 inches) are typically installed in the telephone equipment
room and provide connectivity from the telephone system to the Link WTS. Each
MCU is hard-wired to one or more Base Stations, which in turn provides the wireless
link to each of the Wireless Telephones. The MCU establishes the connection from
the telephone line to the appropriate Base Station in order to reach a Wireless
Telephone.
