18 Installing the Avaya G650 Media Gateway
High-level overview of the installation process
You complete the installation process in stages. You can complete some stages in parallel.
Other stages require certain tasks first. The order in which you complete the stages depends on
the suggested order, local practice, and the personnel available. The high-level stages are:
●Installing the G650 media gateways.
●Cabling the media gateways.
●Connecting to the customer network which includes media servers, C-LAN, VAL, and so
forth.
●Installing and wiring telephones and trunks.
●Completing the installation administration which includes clear alarms, enable alarm
reporting, backup translation, and so forth.
●Testing the complete configuration.
These high-level stages are described below.
Installing the media gateways
You can complete this stage in parallel with installing and configuring the server complex. You
must install and turn on the media gateways before you complete many of the other stages.
Cabling the media gateways
In this stage, you attach the cables of the media gateways to the main distribution frame and the
patch panels. This stage usually comes after you install the media gateways and before you
install traditional telephones.
Connecting the media gateways
In this stage, you connect the media gateways to the server complex through Ethernet cables.
You also program the IP Server Interface (IPSI) circuit packs during this stage. Before you can
complete this stage, the G650 Media Gateway must be installed and the server complex must
be operational.

Connecting to the customer’s network
You can perform this stage anytime. But to allow testing along the way, connect to the customer
network after you cable the media gateways and connect the gateways to the media server
complex.
Installing and wiring telephones
In this stage, you wire, place, and test the telephones. In most cases, the configuration must be
operational and responsive before you can perform this stage. An exception exists for IP
telephones that are connected to the network, which you can place before you complete the
installation. When you install wiring for traditional telephones and analog or digital consoles,
ensure that you install the telephones when you can also test the telephones.
Note:
Note: The information for this stage is provided in the document, Installing and
Connecting Main Distribution Frames and Telephones, (03-300686).
Completing the installation
In this stage, you finish the installation. To finish the installation, you clear alarms, enable alarm
reporting, back up the servers, connect the modems and register the configuration. This stage
comes at the end of the actual installation.
Testing the complete installation
In this stage, you verify the complete configuration operation. Always perform this stage last.
