KIRK Base Station 12
1.9 GHz
User Guide

1 Introduction
The base station is only intended for use with a
wireless server. The base station must be connected
to a LAN or Ethernet Network. The base station is
designed with two internal antennas and supports
antenna diversity. The base station is also able to
carry out a handover between the RF channels
under the same base station, and handles 11 speech
channels simultaneously. The base station is able to
frame synchronize with other base stations under
the same wireless server.
Transmission lenght is up to 100 meters/329 feet,
according to IEEE 802.3u, on a twisted pair (in one
building), e.g. cat.5e, between the base station and
wireless server. The base station is also power sup-
plied from this connection (maximum power supply
consumption 3.0 W according to PoE 802.3af). The

radius of coverage is up to 600 meters/1960 feet
with a handset in free sight.
2 Installation
First you have to determine where to install the base
station to have the right coverage. The average cov-
erage within buildings is 75 meters/246 feet, under
normal conditions 50 meters/164 feet. The cover-
age depends on the construction of the building,
architecture and choice of buildings materials. You
may have to use the Deployment Kit to optimize
your installation.
The base station is to be mounted vertically on the
wall.

To mount the base station on the wall:
1Mount the base station onto the wall using the
anchors and screws accompanying the product.
Note: When you place the base station on the
screws, ensure that the screws do not touch the
printed circuit board.
2Connect the RJ45 plug to the ethernet connec-
tor at the bottom of the base station.

3 Configuration
Configure the base station for your VoIP
Network.
1Connect the base station to a PoE power source
either using a standard PoE adapter or using a
PoE-enabled port on a switch.
2The base station is pre-configured with the IP
address: 192.168.0.1. Connect a PC to the base
station either using a standard patch cable, or a
cross-over patch cable, or through a network
with identical net mask, e.g. the IP address:
192.168.0.2 and Sub-net mask: 255.255.255.0.

3The system is now ready to be reached with a
standard web browser. Log in using:
Default user name: admin
Default password: ip6000
4Change the IP address to fit your VoIP Net-
work.
5Change user name and password.
Connect base station to a Wireless Server
6000
1Configure the base station to connect to the
Wireless Server 6000 on your VoIP Network.
This is done in Configuration menu (web
based Administration Page).

should ensure that it is permissible to be connected
to the facilities of the local telecommunications
company. The equipment must also be installed
using an acceptable method of connection. The cus-
tomer should be aware that compliance with the

above conditions may not prevent degradation of
service in some situations.

nated by a representative designated by the sup-
plier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to
this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may
give the telecommunications company cause to
request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that
the electrical ground connections of the power util-
ity, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe
system, if present, are connected together. This pre-
caution may be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make
such connections themselves, but should contact
the appropriate electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.

Note: If your telephone equipment causes harm to
the telephone network, the telephone company may
ask you to disconnect the system from the line until
the prob lem has been corrected or they may dis-
continue your service temporarily. If possible, they
will notify you in advance, But if advance notice is
not practical, you should be notified as soon as pos-
sible. You will be informed of your right to file a
complaint with the FCC.

mainta- in uninterrupted telephone service. If you
experience trouble with this telephone system, dis-
connect it from the network until the problem has

been corrected or until you are sure that the equip-
ment is not malfunctioning.
