1. About This Document
The Outdoor Base Station is designed to withstand environmental hazards such as rain
and excessive heat and cold. The outdoor enclosure is mounted into position and the Base
Station is then installed within it. The entire unit is then referred to as an Outdoor Base
Station.
This document covers the installation of the Outdoor Base Station in a variety of
situations. It supplements the installation documentation for the Link Wireless Telephone
System (Link WTS) using either the Link 3000 MCU (see Link WTS – Link 3000:
Installation) or the Link 150 MCU (see Link WTS – Link 150: Installation). Refer to
these documents for SpectraLink notes and disclaimers, UL information, FCC
