PREFACE This manual is applicable for the AP300, DECT Transceiver. Please note that some product models or features described in this manual may not be available in all world regions.” No legal rights can be obtained from information in this manual.
AP300 GENERAL 1.1. GENERAL This installation Manual is valid for installing a DECT transceiver (AP300) to a wall in horizontal or vertical position. The AP300 is designed for indoor use. When installing an AP300 outdoors, please use the dedicated Outdoor Cabinet: Note that there are two types of DECT Tranceivers:: AP300 (with internal antennas).
TEMPERATURE RANGES The temperature range of the AP300 is: - 0° to 45° C. The outside temperature range for the AP300 (all types) mounted in the Outdoor Cabinet is as follows: Minimum outside temperature: -20° C Maximum outside temperature: 45° C 1.5.
If the G.729 Daughter Board is not installed, the AP300 supports only G.711u law or G.711a law. Installation of the Daughter Board is described in chapter 4. MOUNTING THE G.729 DAUGHTERBOARD. 1.7. VISUAL CHECK The equipment must be carefully unpacked and examined for any visible sign of damage.
Check the AP300 on any damages. Continue with one of the following Chapters: − When you mount the AP300 vertically, the antenna position will normally be OK, and when you do not need to install the G.729 Daughter Board, continue with Chapter 5 MOUNTING THE AP300 AGAINST A WALL.
ADJUSTING THE ANTENNA POSITION Note: You only need to change the antenna position when you mount the AP300 horizontally! In all other cases you don’t need to change the antenna position. Figure 3. AP300 mounted horizontally Procedure for Adjusting the Antenna position.
Page 14
After the antennas are put in the vertical position, close the AP300 cabinet again. In other words, put the AP300 cover back into position and secure the screws at the rear side of the cabinet. See Figure 6. Antennas locked into Cover.
Page 15
Make sure that the antennas are properly locked into the locks in the AP300 cover. Figure 7. Detail of antenna in lock. Move the antenna cover carefully over the antennas in the vertical position and make sure that the antennas do not bend. When the antenna cover is in its position, push it further into its position in the AP300 cabinet to fix it.
Note: Mind the light conductor for the LEDs. It can drop off! LED Light conductor Figure 9. Light conductor for LEDs Now you should have the AP300 PWB and the G.729 Daughter Board as separate items. Remove the protection foil from the sticky part on the G.729 Daughter Board. Sticky foam Figure 10.

Usually the Cabinets will be fixed to existing walls in the positions determined by the Site Survey. 1.3. TEMPERATURE RANGES The outside temperature range for the AP300 (all types) mounted in the Outdoor Cabinet is as follows: Minimum outside temperature: -20° C Maximum outside temperature: 45° C...
Cabinet, and the Outdoor Cabinet is mounted against a wall and the cable is led directly indoors, it is permitted. The power for the AP300(E) must be supplied via the Ethernet cable, PoE (IEEE 802.3af). There is no room for a Mains Power adaptor inside the Outdoor Cabinet.
INSTALLING AP300 WITH INTERNAL ANTENNAS Procedure for installing the Outdoor Box with AP300 with internal antennas: Open the Cabinet. To open the cabinet, use a screw driver that fits into the four plastic screws at the front side of the cabinet. Unfasten the screws.
