100 Installing and Upgrading the Avaya G700 Media Gateway and Avaya S8300 Media Server
Verifying Environmental conditions
Verify that temperatures and clearances are within the recommended technical parameters.
Consult the table of Technical Specifications in Appendix A: Technical information
.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION: Verify that temperature and clearance ranges are within tolerable limits. The
thermal sensors may shut down equipment if it is subjected to conditions beyond
the recommended limits. Equipment can be damaged if these restrictions are not
respected.
Power Verification
Check that an adequate number of power outlets are available.Verify that the G700 Media
Gateways and the other equipment in the rack do not present a possible overcurrent or
overload to the customer's branch circuit and/or power distribution strip. Power requirements
are listed in Appendix A: Technical information
.
!
WARNING:
WARNING: Do not overload the power circuit.
Grounding Verification
Ensure that the installation site has access to approved grounds and that either a trained
technician or a licensed electrician will be verifying all grounds and installing the Supplementary
Ground Conductor (consult Attaching Ground Conductors
).
!
WARNING:
WARNING: Installation in a Restricted Access Location and secure access are required in
Finland and Norway.
The G700 Media Gateway relies on two ground connections (mains plug with an earth contact
and a permanent Supplementary Ground Conductor). Because of unreliable earthing concerns
in Finland and Norway, the G700 Media Gateway must be installed in a Restricted Access
Location (RAL). An RAL is defined as an access that can be gained only by trained service
personnel or customers who have been instructed about the reasons for the restricted access
and any safety precautions that must be taken. In these cases, access to the G700 Media
Gateway is gained by the use of a tool (such as a lock and key) or other means of security.
If you have any questions about the safety conditions, contact your Project Manager. When you
have verified that the site is ready for a safe installation, proceed with the installation.
