SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway Administration Guide
Installing Multiple SpectraLink 8000
Telephony Gateways
If installing more than one SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway, the
ESD bonding strap(s) must be installed between adjacent Gateways.
Mount Gateway
1. See directions for installing a single Gateway in previous section.
Measure carefully to allow no more than 1/2” between Gateways.
Drill holes and place screws.
2. Position each SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway with
Connector A to the right (horizontal) or bottom (vertical). Slide the
SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway over the screws until the
unit drops into place in the keyhole opening.
3. Tighten screws fully.
4. Ground the unit per Grounding instructions above.
Install bonding straps
1. Remove the screws from the bottom (vertical mount) or left
(horizontal mount) of adjacent units.
2. Place the ESD strap over the pilot holes that span two units and
hold it against the plywood backboard or rack.
3. Place the star washer on top of the ESD strap.
4. Insert the #8 x 3/4” screw and tighten to leave a 1/8” to 1/4” gap
from the wall.
5. Repeat for all ESD straps.
When installing a TGA116, the grounding terminal in the rear panel
of each unit must be electrically connected to earth ground. See
Grounding instructions above.
