General Installation Procedure
To install the IntelliVue Telemetry System 1.4 GHz Core Access Point:
1. Mount the ITS 1.4 GHz Core Access Point and Remote Antennas within the clinic
where they can communicate with 1.4 GHz patient-worn transceivers and
wireless bedside monitors. Note these guidelines when installing the ITS Core
Access Point and Remote Antennas:
• You may mount each ITS Core Access Point as follows:
- to a wall (fixed mount) as described on page 2-6
- to a wall (CA earthquake rated) as described on page 2-7
- above a ceiling as described on page 2-9
- below a ceiling (fixed mount) as described on page 2-12
- below a ceiling (quick release) as described on page 2-16
• You may mount each ITS Remote Antenna as follows:
- to a wall (fixed mount) as described on page 2-21
- to a wall (ca earthquake rated) as described on page 2-22
- above a ceiling as described on page 2-23
- above a ceiling (tether mount) as described on page 2-26
- below a ceiling (fixed mount) as described on page 2-28
- below a ceiling (quick release) as described on page 2-32
• Use category 5 (or better) Unshielded Twisted Pair cable to connect each ITS
Core Access Point to the ITS infrastructure.
• The total length of UTP cable from the ITS access point-to the ITS
Synchronization Unit-to the ITS Power over Ethernet Unit-to ICN Network
Switch cannot exceed 328 ft. (100 m).
• Use only the supplied, unmodified 74 ft. (22.6m) Coax and UTP cable
bundle when connecting Remote Antennas to the Core AP.
2. Attach each supplied local antenna to the Core AP chassis by inserting the
antenna into the socket connector. Orient the antenna (either straight for wall
mounting or rotate downward for ceiling tile mounting) and then screw on its
collar until the antenna is secure to the chassis.
3. Attach each supplied antenna to the Remote Antenna chassis by inserting the
antenna into the socket connector. Orient the antenna (either straight for wall
mounting or rotate downward for ceiling tile mounting) and then screw on its
collar until the antenna is secure to the chassis.
4. If you have installed Remote Antennas, connect each ITS Core Access Point to
its installed Remote Antenna(s) using the supplied, unmodified 74 ft. (22.6m)
Coax and UTP cable bundle(s).
Caution Do not kink the RA Coax-and-UTP-cable-bundle during installation. You must
m
aintain a minimum 2.5-inch (64-mm) bend radius for the RA Coax-and-UTP-cable-
bundle throughout the installation.
