Installation Overview
Installation has three phases. In most cases, a separate person is
responsible for each phase.
1. Site preparation and wire installation: Usually done by a wire
technician or contractor, with the assistance of a customer
representative such as a project manager. Please refer to the
SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Facility Preparation manual for more
information.
2. Installing the SpectraLink system: Done by Polycom or one of our
certified distributors.
3. Programming the customer’s telephone system to work with the
SpectraLink system: Usually done by the customer’s system
administrator or technician. Please refer to the LinkPlus Interface
Guide for instructions on programming the telephone system at
the local site.

SpectraLink 6000 System
Description
This section generally explains the installation and site requirements
of the SpectraLink 6000 System. The SpectraLink 6000 System is a
wireless communication system that allows hand-held SpectraLink
6000 Wireless Telephones to communicate using the existing
telephone system.
The SpectraLink 6000 System’s advanced micro-cellular architecture
utilizes Base Stations, or cells, located throughout the facility to
accommodate on-premise roaming. As a handset user moves within
the coverage area, the call is seamlessly passed between cells. The
SpectraLink 6300 MCU supports up to 3,200 users and millions of
square feet of coverage, resulting in a scalable enterprise-wide
wireless voice solution.
For simplicity, this manual refers to the existing wired phone
system, whether an on-premises PBX or Telco-provided Centrex
system, as the “telephone system.”
The SpectraLink 6000 System uses a micro-cellular design consisting
of three primary components: the Master Control Unit (MCU), Base
Stations, and Wireless Telephones (handsets). The following diagram
shows an overview of the system.

SpectraLink 6000 System
Components
The Master Control Unit
The Master Control Unit is the processing center for calls to and from
the SpectraLink 6000 System. It consists of at least one primary shelf
(MCS300) and may have up to 19 expansion shelves. Residing
adjacent to the telephone switching equipment, the MCU operates as
a standalone, external system while maintaining full PBX
functionality for handset users.
The MCU connects to the telephone system in two ways. The MCU
can either interface with analog ports of the host telephone system or,
in many cases, connect directly to the telephone system (PBX or
key/hybrid system) via a digital interface. A digital interface provides
the advantage that all switch features, such as call party name display
and multiple line appearances, are preserved for the end user.
The MCU provides connectivity from the telephone switch to the
wireless system components. Telephony ports for each handset are
commissioned from the telephone switch. Base Stations, which
provide the wireless link to the handsets, are wired directly to the
MCU.
The SpectraLink 6000 System topology
Components in the SpectraLink 6000 System are designed in a star
topology. At the center is the SpectraLink 6300 MCU. The primary
shelf contains the system controller, which manages the call
processing for the wireless network. Additional expansion shelf
controllers manage intra-shelf calling and work with the system
controller to pass calls within the wireless network and to the
telephony switch. All shelves provide universal slots for up to ten
Interface Modules. Interface Modules connect Base Stations and

handsets to the system. Up to 20 shelves can be connected together to
maximize the system capacity.
The following diagram illustrates a sample star topology for the
SpectraLink 6000 System.

SpectraLink 6000 Wireless Telephone Components
Shelf
Shelves are designed for 19” rack or wall mounting. Each shelf has 12
universal card slots. The first two slots are reserved for controller
cards, the remaining ten slots are for Interface Modules. Wiring to
each card is on the front panel. Power is -48V DC through the back or
side panel.
System Controller (CSC or CSO301, 306, and 320)
Each system requires one system controller card, which occupies two
slots (slots 1 and 2) in the main shelf. The system controller supports
call routing within the entire system and to external ports. Each
model number of System Controller (301, 306, and 320) supports a
different number of expansion shelves. The CSO model System
Controller supports Open Application Interface (OAI) enabled
expansion shelves.
Two RS-232 serial ports are provided on the system controller. Serial
ports can be used for multiple purposes, including local
administration, remote administration and diagnostics (via modem),
OAI applications and call detail recording. One standard 10-base T
Ethernet port is also provided (for future use).
Expansion Shelf (CSC300, CSO300)
An Expansion Shelf Controller (CSC300) resides in slot 2 of each
expansion shelf. The Expansion Shelf Controller manages intra-shelf
traffic and communicates with the system controller. The CSO300
Expansion Shelf Controller supports an OAI enabled expansion shelf.
Part Numbers with a CSO prefix have the same functionality and
capacity as the corresponding CSC Part Numbers and also support
the Open Application Interface(OAI)
Interface Modules (CPA, CPU, CPM, CPP, CPF316)
Telephone line and Base Station connections are made to the Interface
Module. Each card provides 16 line (handset) interfaces and 6 Base
Station interfaces. Interface Modules are installed in slots 3 through 12
on a shelf. Interface Modules include: Analog (CPA316), Universal
(CPU316), Mitel interface (CPM316), four-wire digital (CPF316), and
Panasonic (CPP316). The Interface Module type is defined via the

SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Facility Preparation
Operator’s Console and software when the card is installed. Interface
Modules of different interface types can be mixed within a shelf.
Interface Modules are “hot swappable”; they can be removed and
replaced without affecting service on the rest of the system.
Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300)
The Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300) connects Expansion Shelf
Controllers on expansion shelves to the system controller, creating a
completed communication channel between network elements. The
Intershelf Junction Panel physically connects the network, converting
RJ-21 connections from the System Controller to the RJ-45 connection
on the Shelf Controller.
Base Stations
Radio Base Stations,or cells, provide the communication channel
between the MCU and the handsets. The Base Station and handset use
digital spread spectrum radio transmission in the 902-928 MHz
frequency band.
Each Base Station supports multiple users and covers a transmission
area in excess of 50,000 square feet. The signal propagation is
dependent on transmission obstructions within the building. A call is
passed from one Base Station to another as the user walks throughout
the coverage area. The SpectraLink 6000 System is designed to
provide seamless coverage, enabling real-time hand-off of active calls.

SpectraLink 6000 Wireless Telephone Components
ccSpectraLink 6000 System
The ccSpectraLink 6000 System (WTS) is designed to meet the high
simultaneous call capacity and advanced level of telephone feature
integration of the call center environment. The ccSpectraLink 6000
System uses a special High Density Base Station which can be
installed with minimal spacing (as little as 20 feet between Base
Stations.)
SpectraLink 6000 Wireless Telephones
The SpectraLink 6000 Wireless Telephone is a durable wireless
telephone that operates with all the functionality of a wired desk
phone. Weighing only six ounces and ergonomically designed, the
handset is comfortable and easy to use. The monolithic design of the
handset, with no moving parts, will withstand a physically
demanding work environment. The handset’s alphanumeric display
supports messaging from either the telephone switching equipment
or an external data application. The handset provides up to four
hours of talk time and 80 hours of standby between battery recharges.
When the SpectraLink 6000 System is connected to the telephone
system using analog ports, the handset will provide many of the
calling features of a desk phone, including transfer, conference
calling, and hold. When the system is digitally interfaced to the phone
system, the handset will also support the advanced features of the
host telephone system such as calling party name display and
multiple line appearances.

SpectraLink 6020 Wireless Telephone
Each handset requires a line appearance (port) from the telephone
system. Typically the handset extension number corresponds with the
user’s internal telephone extension number. On most switching
systems the user’s desk phone and the handset port can be bridged so
that incoming calls ring both phones simultaneously.
Operator’s Console
The system uses a proprietary software program for administration
and maintenance. The software is loaded to the Operator’s Console,
an IBM-compatible personal computer, located close to the
SpectraLink 6300 MCU. The PC is used to register each handset and
Base Station, enter user information, monitor system operations, and
initiate remote diagnostics.
SpectraLink OAI Gateway
The SpectraLink OAI Gateway and application server are optional
components which enable third-party applications (such as nurse call
systems) to communicate with SpectraLink Wireless Telephones.

Prepare Power for Shelves
The SpectraLink 6300 MCU requires a -48V DC power source. The -
48V connection is comprised of three wires: -48, +48 (neutral), and
ground.
Polycom recommends that a licensed electrician install the -48V
power source. It must be installed according to current National
Electrical Code (NEC) or National Fire Protection Code standards, in
accordance with all local and municipal electrical code
recommendations.
Use of 14 AWG wire is recommended.
on power connections.
When connecting the -48 V DC system to power, note the following
precautions:
A 30 amp circuit breaker must be present on the non-grounded DC
circuit conductor, and the installer must ensure that means are
provided for connection of the equipment to the DC source by
permanent wiring methods, and no disconnecting device is located
in the grounded DC circuit conductor between the point of
connection to the supply and the point of connection to the
grounding electrode and equipment grounding conductors.
Run Cables to Base Station Locations
The Base Station locations should be designated on the building floor
plans provided to the field service engineer. Base Stations can be
mounted easily on raised or acoustical ceiling tiles, or on the wall.
Avoid locating Base Stations in high or hard-to-reach places, as this
will hinder maintenance, testing, or repositioning.

Run all cable before attaching the RJ-45 connectors to the Base
Stations. Label both the demarcation block end and the Base Station
end of each wire with the Base Station number using a wire tie marker
or other form of marker.
Remove bridge taps, multiples, or “Y” connections to the Base
Station wires; these will cause data transmission errors. When
using IDFs be sure that the total wire length from the MCU to each
Base Station does not exceed 6,000 cable feet.
The area above some suspended ceilings is used as an
environmental air plenum. The NEC requires that wire that is
installed in plenums be rated for plenum installation.
Terminate Cables at Base Station Locations
Terminate cable at the Base Station using an RJ-45 modular crimp-on
plug.
To avoid damage to the connectors or crimps, be sure to run the
wire to the Base Station before connecting the RJ-45 connectors.
After running the wire to the Base Station location, terminate the wire
using an RJ-45 modular crimp-on plug. Connect the data pair to pins
1 and 2 and the power pair to pins 7 and 8. These connections are not
polarity sensitive.

The CPU316 and CPM316 Interface Modules are intended only for
connection to the isolated-side of an on-premise PBX. These
interfaces are intended to connect to digital PBX ports that provide
signals of 5Vp-p (max) AC component and some PBXs providing a
48Vdc offset.
Base Station wiring is the same for all Interface Modules.
Based on the number and type of interfaces in the system, determine
the number of 25-pair cables required to connect line ports and Base
Stations to the demarcation blocks. The diagrams which follow
provide an overview of the connections.

SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Facility Preparation
Install Demarc Blocks
The demarcation blocks used to connect the telephone system and
Base Stations to the MCU should be installed on a typical telephone
facility backboard. A 1/2” or 3/4” thick board mounted on the wall
near the MCU is typical. Although this manual uses 66 blocks as
examples, any standard cross-connect blocks are acceptable.
If the wiring between the MCS300 and the telephone system leaves
the building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and
local codes for instructions on providing lightning and other over-
current protection.
Program Telephone System
Plan location of lines and Base Stations on
Interface Modules
Each Interface Module can support 16 handsets and six Base Stations.
Consider the usage and traffic patterns at this site in determining the
placement of lines and Base Stations on each Interface Module. To
obtain maximum calling capacity, locate handsets and Base Stations
which will be used by those telephones on the same shelf.
Interface Modules of different interface types may be mixed within
a shelf. However, within a given Interface Module, all ports must
interface to the same type of telephone system.
Assign and program ports
The wire contractor should inform the system administrator which
port numbers have been designated for the handsets and the remote
diagnostics modem line.
The system administrator must assign extension numbers to the
handsets and plan the functions (trunk access, toll restrictions, system
features, ringing options etc.) to be programmed for the handsets.
This programming will be done after the handsets are registered, but

will be faster if it is planned in advance by verifying the parameters
and features on the current telephone system and-wired phones.
For details, refer to the LinkPlus Interface Guide for the type of
telephone system for the system controller in use.
Connect Cables from Base Stations and Phone
Lines to Demarc Blocks
Two-pair twisted cable from Base Stations installed throughout the
facility converge at the demarc block or backboard. Each Interface
Module can support six Base Stations and 16 handsets. The Base
Station and handset cables are punched down onto the Interface
Module cross-connect blocks as shown in the demarc block diagrams
below.
Photocopy the Base Station Location Worksheet and Extension
Assignments Worksheet as needed. Use the forms to track the Base
Stations and handset port assignments connected to each Interface
Module. As the field service engineer punches down each Base
Station or handset connection, fill in the information on the form to
identify the position of the Base Station or handset (the building and
floor number, for example) and a detailed description of the location
(perhaps a room number). A copy of this form should be posted near
the cross-connect block.
Up to six Base Stations can be connected on a single Interface
Module. Each Base Station uses two pair; one for data and one for
power, so 12 pairs will be used to wire six Base Stations.
When wiring an external Base Station or a Base Station with wiring
that exits the building, protect all Base Station wiring with the Quick
Clip Fuse (Reliable Electric RSCP-2) before bridging with other
Base Station power leads.
If the wiring between the MCS300 and the telephone system leaves
the building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and
local codes for instructions on providing lightning and other over-
current protection.

Install Shelves
Rack mount
To install shelves in the rack, slide the shelves into the rack and secure
them to the rack using 8 screws, 1/4” minimum length.
Wall mount
At this point in the installation process, there should be a backboard
securely fastened to the wall and mounting screws partially inserted
into the backboard. See Chapter 4, section Prepare Location for
Shelves for more information.
To attach the shelves to the wall:
1. Remove all cards from the shelf. Do not mount the shelf with
cards installed.
Cards contain components that may be damaged by electrostatic
discharge. Before handling any of the cards, attach the grounding
strap (included in the Administration Kit) to your wrist, and attach
the other end of the strap to ground. Handle cards only by their
edges. Do not touch connector contact areas. Do not lift cards by
any of the components. Do not lay cards down on their component
sides. When laying a card down, place it component side up, on top
of the anti-static bag in which it was shipped.
2. Position the MCS300 so that the six mounting screws are aligned
with the six keyhole openings in the back of the shelf.
3. Slide the shelf down onto the screws to lock the shelf into place.
Check that all six screws are properly locked.

Install Intershelf Junction Panel
The Intershelf Junction Panel (JPI300) is to be installed only in
restricted access areas (dedicated equipment rooms, equipment
closets, or the like), in accordance with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and
110-18 of the NEC, ANSI/N FPA 70.
The expansion shelf controllers of shelves 2 through 20 are connected
to the system controller by an intershelf junction panel. The panel
converts the RJ-21 connections on the system controller to the RJ-45
connections on the expansion shelf controller.
Install the panel in the rack or on the wall adjacent to the Primary
Shelf, which contains the system controller (CSC306 or CSC320).
Wall mounting requires 1.75” #8 panhead wood screws. The panel
must be mounted with standoffs at least 1.5” long and 1/4” inside
diameter.
Connect Power to Shelves
Polycom recommends that a licensed electrician install the -48V DC
power supply and connect power to the shelves.
When connecting the -48 V DC system to power, note the following
precautions:
A 30 amp circuit breaker must be present on the non-grounded DC
circuit conductor, and the installer must ensure that means are
provided for connection of the equipment to the DC source by
permanent wiring methods, and no disconnecting device is located
in the grounded DC circuit conductor between the point of
connection to the supply and the point of connection to the
grounding electrode and equipment grounding conductors.
The DC input to the power supply is polarity sensitive. Incorrect
hookup will prevent normal operation of the system and may cause
damage. Double check polarities before making any connections.
Verify that the DC power switch on each shelf is OFF.

Install Base Stations
Be sure the Base Station is positioned clear of anything that might
damage it. The Base Station should be well above head height, away
from doors and other objects that might strike it, and away from areas
open to the elements or possible water leaks.
Check the location for other radio antenna devices and place the Base
Stations to avoid interference. Leave enough slack wire to account for
possible future Base Station moves.
Mount Base Stations on Dropped Tile Ceilings
A ceiling clip and plastic bolt are supplied to install Base Stations on
the drop ceiling rails (T-bars) used to support acoustical tile. The
plastic bolt screws into the top of the Base Station, then snaps into the
ceiling clip which has been attached to the rails that hold the
acoustical tile. The fastener is designed for use on 15/16" wide rails.
1. Attach the metal fastener to the rail (T-bar) supporting the
dropped ceiling by rotating it into position until it snaps into the
locked position.
2. Screw the plastic bolt to the 1/4” x 20 captive nut into the top of
the Base Station.
3. Slide the bolt into the exposed prongs of the metal clip until it
snaps into position.

SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Facility Preparation
4. When properly attached the Base Station should sit almost flush
against the ceiling and be tightly attached to the clip and T-bar
grid work.
5. Once the Base Station is anchored to the fastener, lift the acoustical
tile and plug the RJ-45 8-pin modular plug into the connector on
the top of the Base Station.
— The LED will blink red and green as the system software
downloads to the Base Station and the Base Station is tested.
— When the LED blinks amber, the system is ready for operation.
— When the LED blinks green, a handset has established a radio
link with that Base Station.
— If the LED turns solid red or other red/green sequence, refer
to SpectraLink 6300 MCU Maintenance and Diagnostics.
Mount Base Stations on Finished Ceilings
If this site does not have a dropped tile ceiling, the Base Station can be
mounted to a finished ceiling or wall with a 4 to 5” long 1/4” -20 TPI
plastic or nylon screw or bolt (such as a lag screw).
The customer’s wire contractor is responsible for this installation.
1. Drill two holes approximately 1” apart. Make the holes large
enough to accommodate the RJ-45 connector and a bolt to secure
the Base Station.
2. Insert a wide washer above the ceiling, then screw the bolt into
the beam or ceiling.
3. Insert three nuts on the bolt, then screw the Base Station into the
bolt, being careful not to insert the bolt more than 1/3”, five full
turns, into the Base Station.
If the ceiling is open with I-beams or pipe construction, mount the
Base Station with I-beam clamps or pipe clamps.

Install Outdoor Base Stations
Outdoor Base Stations (RCO400) are equipped with a protective
enclosure, designed to be mounted to a wall or pole. After the
enclosure is mounted, the Base Station is inserted in the enclosure and
connected.
The customer’s wire contractor is responsible for wiring and
mounting the outdoor Base Station enclosure. The contractor is
responsible for supplying screws, brackets, and other appropriate
hardware.
If the wiring between the MCS300 and the telephone system leaves
the building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and
local codes for instructions on providing lightning and other over-
current protection.
Wire outdoor Base Stations
If the wiring for a Base Station exits a building—whether to reach an
outdoor Base Station location or to reach a Base Station in another
building—it should be equipped with primary protection according
to the NEC and/or local codes.
Wiring that exits the building must also be protected at both ends
by a Quick Clip Fuse from Reliable Electric, part number RSCP-2.
Insert the Quick Clip fuses in place of bridging clips on a 66 block
for the non-internal Base Station circuits.

System Initialization
Before the system can be tested or operated, the administration and
maintenance PC must be installed and connected to the MCU, the
system must be configured, and the handsets and Base Stations must
be registered. Refer to the SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Operator’s Console
document to perform the following steps, then return to the next
section to continue the installation procedures.
1. The PC must be connected to the system controller’s RS-232 serial
port. An optional modem should also be connected to a dedicated
phone line to provide remote access.
2. Load the administration software (Chk3000) and run the software.
3. Configure all system parameters.
4. Register all handsets.
5. Register all Base Stations.
6. Program macros on systems with analog interface.
7. Program handset features on the PBX.
If the system is connected to the telephone system via analog
lines, refer to the SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Operator’s Console
documentation.
If the SpectraLink 6300 MCU is connected to a digital key
telephone system or PBX, refer to the section of the LinkPlus

Test System
The system should now be tested to ensure that it is functioning
correctly. Power cycle the system. Verify that all Base Stations
download and go to a running status. This takes about 30 seconds
after connecting the Base Station cable to the Base Station’s RJ-45
socket. During this period the Base Station’s LED will flash in several
sequences. At the end of this period the LED will be flashing yellow.
Test each Base Station:
While standing near the Base Station, use a registered handset and go
off-hook. Verify a clear dial tone. The Base Station’s LED should flash
green.
Verify proper registration and operation of each handset by
performing the following test:
1. Press the START key on each handset. The extension number
should clear and you should hear dial tone. On some digital
systems, depending on how the telephone system is programmed,
you may have to select a line to get dial tone.
2. Place a call to each handset to verify ring, answer, clear transmit,
and clear receive audio.
3. Verify all programmed features on each handset.
4. Press the END key. The line indicator should turn off.
Voice-test each Base Station
Walk around the installation site with a handset while making voice
calls to a deskset. Verify that both ends of the conversation are of
good quality on each Base Station.

Run Listen Verify Diagnostic
The Listen Verify diagnostic is used to determine if Base Stations are
performing correctly. See SpectraLink 6300 MCU: Operator’s Console for
details. When the test is run, each each Base Station stops transmitting
for a short time and listens for other Base Stations. The system checks
signal strength levels between Base Stations to ensure that no Base
Station is installed too close to another. If Base Stations are too close,
one Base Station will be disabled (“locked out”) and an alarm will be
activated, unless the Base Station in question has been designated as
an “isolated” Base Station.
Base Stations with diagnostic listen values of less than -40 dbm are
close to being locked out. If the Base Station is only a few dbm away
from locking out, it should be repositioned to get a lower signal
strength to avoid the lockout.
The Listen Verify test can be run manually or the system can
automatically run it at the same time each day. See SpectraLink 6300
MCU: Operator’s Console for detailed information on how to manually
or automatically run the Listen Verify diagnostic, and how to
interpret results.

Site Certification
The Polycom field service engineer should not leave the site before
contacting Polycom to perform remote install verification.
The field service engineer should contact a Polycom engineer on the
technical support line at 800-775-5330. The hours of operation are 6
a.m. to 6 p.m. Mountain time, Monday through Friday.
Before leaving the installation site, the field service engineer must
complete the following items:
† From the Operator’s Console, copy the PCS.CFG file to diskette.
From the Operator’s Console, press F1 (Supervisor State Display)
then select Dump Config to PCS.CFG. See SpectraLink 6300 MCU:

Site Preparation Checklist
If upon arrival the Polycom field service engineer determines that the
pre-installation work has not been completed correctly, the engineer
has two options: 1) the engineer can leave the site and reschedule the
installation when the action items have been completed or corrected,
or 2) the engineer can assist in preparing the site, and thus spend
additional time installing the system. Because of the additional cost
incurred by Polycom in executing either option, the customer will be
billed for the additional time at the standard hourly rate plus
expenses.
Please be sure the following items are completed.
† MCU location prepared. Typically the MCU is installed in the
telephone equipment room. This location must have sufficient
rack or backboard space and power available.
† Two-pair wires are run to each of the Base Station locations as
designated on the building floor plans. Use Level 3 cable for
lengths up to 3,500 feet; Level 4 for lengths up to 6,000 feet.
† The Base Station cables are terminated with RJ-45 crimp-on plugs
at the designated locations.
† One (or two) cross-connect block(s) are installed for every
Interface Module and connected with a 25-pair Telco cable
terminated with an RJ-21 male connector at the MCU location.
