Rack Mounting the 3200 Series Standalone or the 3200 Series 1+1 System
The 3200 series equipment is mounted on a customer provided equipment rack using the mounting
hardware packaged in the box.
Prerequisites
To rack mount the equipment, you will need:
- One 19” customer-provided equipment rack. The rack must be solidly anchored to the floor with appropriate support at the top of the racks.
- Climate controlled room: 0 to +50 Celsius, 0 to 95% non-condensing humidity.
Vertical Placement of the Equipment
The 3200 series standalone, 3200 series +1, and 1+1 Patch Panel are each housed in a 1U chassis, as tabulated below. It is important that you provide for enough room on the equipment rack to allow for the installation of the equipment.
Consider the available space on your equipment rack and the height of the 3200 series gateway equipment. Due to the rear-exhaust heat vents and the efficient heat dissipation design, there is no need to leave any physical vertical space above or below the 3200 series gateway equipment on the equipment rack.
| Model | Vertical Height |
|---|---|
| 3200 series standalone | 1U (1.75 inches or 44.45 mm) |
| 3200 series +1 | 1U (1.75 inches or 44.45 mm) |
| Patch Panel (one or two) | 1U (1.75 inches or 44.45 mm) |
Installing the 3200 Series Standalone and the 3200 Series 1+1 on an Equipment Rack
Both the 3200 series standalone and the 3200 series 1+1 system are mounted on the 19" equipment rack using the angle brackets and screws provided in the box.
- Using four metal screws, attach one angle bracket to the front, left-hand side of the 3200 series unit, when viewed from the front. Do the same for the angle bracket on the right-hand side.
- Start mounting equipment at the top-most position of the rack, keeping in mind the space required
on the equipment rack.
Choosing your Connection Procedure

Installing the 3200 Series Standalone
If you are here, you have a 3200 series unit that you will set up as a standalone system. This section covers the following procedures:
- Connecting to the 3200 Series Gateway Management Interface
- Standalone: Connecting to a VoIP Network
- Standalone: Connecting to the PSTN
- Standalone: Grounding the Equipment Chassis
- Standalone: Powering Up
- Standalone: Start Up
Connecting to the 3200 Series Gateway Management Interface
The 3200 series gateway provides redundant management interfaces enabling administrators to perform management tasks on the 3200 series unit.
Prerequisites
To communicate with the management interface, the following is needed:
• One CAT5 Ethernet cable with RJ45 male-male terminations.
Interconnections
The 3200 series gateway provides redundant management interfaces each using one gigabit Ethernet network link.
To communicate with the management interface:
- Connect the supplied CAT5 Ethernet cable to the port labeled “MGMT0” at the rear of the 3200 series gateway.
Standalone: Connecting to a VoIP Network
The 3200 series gateway features redundant GigE ports for connection to different VoIP networks. This provides an access point to manage VoIP traffic. Should one of the IP physical interfaces fail, the 3200 series gateway will continue to manage VoIP traffic using the alternate physical interface.
The IP address of the VoIP ports can be modified using the web portal.
 |
Certain configurations of the 3200 series gateway will exceed 100 Mbps, therefore 1000 Mbps is recommended. |
Prerequisites
To connect the 3200 series gateway to the VoIP network, you will need:
- Gigabit layer 2 Ethernet switch. A second one is required to support redundancy of the VoIP interface.
- One or two CAT5 Ethernet cables with RJ45 male-male terminations.
- If your system has access to a second VoIP network, you can connect it to a second VoIP interface of the 3200 series gateway with an RJ45 (male-male) CAT5 Ethernet cable.
Connections
The 3200 series gateway is connected to the VoIP network by one or optionally two Ethernet GigE network links.
To connect the 3200 series unit to the VoIP network:
- Connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable to VoIP0 at the rear of the 3200 series gateway. Connect the other end of the same CAT5 cable to the gigabit Ethernet switch.
- If your system employs a second gigabit Ethernet switch for redundancy, connect a second CAT5 Ethernet cable to VoIP1 at the rear of the 3200 series gateway. Connect the other end of the same CAT5 cable to the second gigabit Ethernet switch.
Standalone: Connecting to the PSTN
This section only applies to the TMG3200 and TSG3200 systems.
Prerequisites
To connect to the PSTN network, you must comply with one of the following:
• Your 3200-TE features SCSI connectors that in turn connect to an SCSI patch panel to terminate in
RJ48C connectors for connection to T1/E1 lines. You will require one patch panel for each 32-line
grouping of T1/E1 line interfaces.
• Your 3200-DS3 features BNC connectors for connection to DS3 lines. You will require two coaxial
cables for each DS3 interface.
• Your 3200-STM1 features electrical or optical STM-1 connectors. You will require two fiber optic
cables for each STM-1 interface.
