INSTALLATION GUIDE
IP-DECT Base Station and IP-DECT Gateway Installation of the Base Station
Installation of the Base Station
This section describes how to install the IPBSs, BS3x0 and DB1. All three base stations can be fixed to a wall,
a ceiling, a pole or a beam, by means of the mounting bracket included. When fixing the base station to a
wall or ceiling the included plugs and screws must be used. When fixing it to a pole or beam a strap or a
flexible metal band must be used, this is not included.
It is recommended to mount the Base Station at least 30 cm away from a metal surface and at
least 2,5 m from WiFi access points.
.1 Base Station Cabling
Recommended base station cable is a standard CAT5 unshielded ethernet cable with minimum 26 AWG
copper conductors, this cable is also used for powering the base station. It is assumed that installation
personnel know how to crimp RJ45 connectors to a cable.
Since the distance between the base station and the wall is limited, a RJ45 modular jack without
cable retention must be used.
Ensure that during the installation of an base station, each base station is given an extra length (5-
10 metres) of cable because it is possible that it will have to be moved for one reason or another.
.2 Install the Base Station
The base station can be mounted vertically or horizontally. Mount the base station at places and positions
as determined in the base station plan, see the applicable System Planning documentation for IP-DECT.
The base station must be placed in a way that it is not facing large metal objects such as large heating
pipes
.2.1 Fix the Mounting Bracket to a Wall
For all wall/ceiling material except plywood and solid wood, use the supplied anchors.
Fix the mounting bracket (see Figure 8. Fixing the mounting bracket to a wall., page 17) to the wall as
follows:
1. Hold the mounting bracket with its flat side against the wall with the text ‘TOP’ upwards and mark the
two holes. The minimum distance between the upper hole and the ceiling or any object above the base
station must be at least 65 mm for IPBS1/BS3x0 and 100 mm for IPBS2/IPBS3/DB1, see Figure 8. Fixing
the mounting bracket to a wall., page 17. If the distance is less than 65/100 mm, the base station cannot
be slid onto the bracket.
2. When using wall plugs: Drill the two holes using a Ø 6 mm drill and insert the included wall plugs.
3. Position the mounting bracket with its flat side to the wall and fasten it with the two included Ø 3.5 mm
screws.

It is critical that the mounting bracket is securely and firmly attached to the wall or ceiling, this is
especially important if it is mounted more than 2 m above the floor:
• Make sure that there is a significant increase of the required torque when the screws are fully
engaged.
• Test that the mounting bracket is securely attached by firmly pulling the back-plate from the
wall/ceiling.
.2.2 Fix the Mounting Bracket to a Ceiling
Fixing to a ceiling is done in the same way as the a wall, see 3.2.1 Fix the Mounting Bracket to a Wall, page
16. When the base station has to be positioned above a suspended ceiling, make sure that the front of the
base station points downwards.
.2. Fix the Mounting Bracket to a Pole or Beam
The mounting bracket can be fixed to a pole (diameter > 45 mm) or a beam (wider than 50 mm) by means of
a strap or flexible metal band less than 30 mm wide. The strap or flexible metal band is not included in the
box.
