3 INSTALLATION OF THE BASE STATION
This section describes how to install the IPBSs, BS3x0 and BS3x2. 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 band
must be used, this is not included.
NOTE: It is recommended to mount the Base station at least 30 cm away from a metal
surface.
3.1 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.
NOTE: Since the distance between the base station and the wall is limited, a RJ45
modular jack without cable retention must be used.
NOTE: 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.
3.2 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.
3.2.1 FIX THE MOUNTING BRACKET TO A WALL
Fix the mounting bracket (see figure 7 on page 16) 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
IPBS430 and BS330, 100 mm for IPBS4x2 and BS3x2 and 156 mm for IPBS440
and BS340, see figure 7 on page 16. 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 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 3.5 mm screws.

3.2.2 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. When the base station has to be positioned above a suspended
ceiling, make sure that the front of the base station points downwards.
3.2.3 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 band less than 30 mm wide. The strap or
flexible band is not included in the box.
1 Fix the mounting bracket to a pole or beam using the band, see figure 8 on page
17.

3.2.4 USE THE CABLE DUCTS FOR IPBS4X0
When the base station IPBS4x0 is mounted to the wall, cable ducts can be used to
route the wiring through.
1 Fix the cable duct to the wall in one of the positions shown in figure 9 on page

3.2.5 CONNECT EXTERNAL ANTENNAS (ONLY IPBS4X2 AND BS3X2)
1 Position the included antenna bracket above the mounting bracket with a
minimum distance of 74 mm (250 mm maximum) and mark the two holes for the
antenna bracket, see figure 10 on page 19 (1).
2 When using wall plugs: Drill the two holes using a 6 mm drill and insert the
included wall plugs.
3 Position the antenna bracket to the wall and fasten it with the two included
3.5 mm screws.
4 Mount the two included coaxial cables on the antenna bracket figure 10 on page
19 (2). Fasten the coaxial cables with the lock nuts which are found on the
coaxial cable antenna connectors.
5 Mount the antennas on the antenna connectors (2).
