SLC16N (not for U.S.) 
 
NOTE  
Danger of damage to property due to surge voltage. The required lightning protection measures must be taken for this board, see Section 2.1.2 "Lightning Protection".  

Introduction  
The SLC16N board is used in HiPath Cordless Office and connects base stations to
 •   HiPath 3550 (max. one SLC16N per system).
Chapter 11 "HiPath Cordless Office" contains basic information on the options available for the use of HiPath Cordless Office.
For initial installation of HiPath Cordless Office, the HiPath cordless system number (DECT ID) must be ordered together with the SLC16N board.  
Replacement boards are always delivered without a HiPath cordless system number.  
Installing the first SLC16N and entering the HiPath cordless system number releases 16 mobile telephones for use (PIN numbers are assigned). These mobile units can then be logged on to the system. Other mobile telephones must be released before they can be used (see Section 10.13.4 "Logging Mobile Telephones on to the System").  
The base stations BS3/1 (S30807-H5482-X), BS3/3 (S30807-H5485-X), and BS3/S (X30807-X5482-X100) are being phased out and may no longer be ordered. You must use the successor product BS4 (S30807-U5491-X) instead of the types named.  
You can still operate the base stations listed in HiPath 3000. Base stations BS3/1, BS3/3, and BS4 can also be used in mixed mode.  
Base stations must be clocked with a high degree of accuracy for HiPath Cordless Office. For this, the subboard CMA or CMS must be plugged into the CBCC board (HiPath 3550) (see Table 11-1).

Switches and LEDs  
 Figure 3-52   SLC16N (S30810-Q2193-X100) (not for U.S.)
 
When you activate the lockout switch (press the switch), all idle mobile telephones are locked. Active mobile telephones are not locked until their release keys are pressed.  
Before unplugging the SLC16N board, always activate the lockout switch and wait until the green LED stops flashing. This precaution ensures that none of the mobile telephones are active.

System configuration using SLC16N  
For information on the maximum possible system configuration of HiPath Cordless Office with SLC16N boards, see Table 11-1.

Supplying power to base stations  
Power is supplied to the base stations primarily via the internal PSU in the system in question.
 •   HiPath 3550
Subject to certain prerequisites, the system-internal PSU UPSC-D provides sufficient power for the operation of sixteen BS3/1s (one UP0/E each) or eight BS3/3 (two UP0/E each). These prerequisites depend on the
   -   Line length and line type between SLC16N and base station.
The following specifications are based on line lengths of up to 1000 m and a line type 2x0.6 mm per UP0/E.
   -   Number and type of corded telephones connected to the system.
Table 3-62 through Table 3-63 show which telephone configurations work without additional power supply.

Options for supplying power to the base stations  
For information on connecting the base stations, refer to the HiPath Cordless Office service manual.  
Each base station must be connected to the SLC16N via the main distribution frame (MDFU or MDFU-E).
Always route the UP0/E interfaces on the SLC16N via a splitting strip to arrest surges caused to lightning. To do so, insert the polarized surge protectors (supplied) in the plugging locations on the splitting strip from above.
The following options are available for supplying power to the base stations:
 •   Power supply via one UP0/E interface (Page 3-147)
 •   Power supply via two UP0/E interfaces (Page 3-148)
 •   Power supply via three UP0/E interfaces (Page 3-149), for BS3/3 only
If the power supplied by the UPSC-D (HiPath 3550) is insufficient, additional power can be supplied by installing the external power supply (Powerbox PB3000 with LUNA2 (Page 3-149).
Signal propagation times differ due to the varying distances between the base stations, the system, and the connection cables used (refer to the HiPath Cordless Office service manual). The SLC16N board automatically balances these propagation times.

Base Station Power Supply via One UP0/E Interface  
Connect the base station to a free interface on SLC16N as shown in Figure 3-53. Be careful not to exceed the maximum connection cable lengths (1000 m for 2 x 0.6 mm).
 Figure 3-53   Base Station Power Supply via One UP0/E Interface (not for U.S.)
 

Base station power supply via two UP0/E interfaces  
Connect the base station to two free interfaces on SLC16N as shown in Figure 3-54. Be careful not to exceed the maximum connection cable lengths (1000 m for 2 x 0.6 mm).
Using two UP0/E interfaces increases the traffic capacity in BS3/3 base stations.
 Figure 3-54   Base Station Power Supply via Two UP0/E Interfaces (not for U.S.)
 

Base Station Power Supply via Three UP0/E Interfaces  
Connect the base station to three free interfaces on SLC16N as shown in Figure 3-55. Be careful not to exceed the maximum connection cable lengths (1000 m for 2 x 0.6 mm).
The use of three UP0/E interfaces increases the traffic capacity in the base station.
 Figure 3-55   Base Station Power Supply via Three P0/E Interfaces (not for U.S.)
 

Additional UPSC-D power supply via an external power supply unit  
If the power supplied by the UPSC-D (HiPath 3550) is insufficient, additional power can be supplied by installing the external power supply (Powerbox PB3000). To do this, connect the DC port on the PB3000 to the special DC input on the UPSC-D.
As described on the preceding pages, the base stations must be connected to free UP0/E interfaces. BS3/1 needs one, BS3/2 needs two, and BS3/3 needs three free UP0/E interfaces.
Powerbox PB3000 is also used if an external power supply unit is required for HiPath 3500 or HiPath 3300 (19-inch housing).
Section 11.4 "Power-Related Capacity Limits" shows which telephone configurations manage without an additional power supply and which configurations require an additional one.
