Install Outdoor Base Stations 
Outdoor Base Stations (RCO400) are equipped with a protective 
enclosure, designed to be mounted to a wall or pole. After the 
enclosure is mounted, the Base Station is inserted in the enclosure and 
connected. 
The customer’s wire contractor is responsible for wiring and 
mounting the outdoor Base Station enclosure. The contractor is 
responsible for supplying screws, brackets, and other appropriate 
hardware.  
 
If the wiring between the MCS300 and the telephone system leaves 
the building, consult the telephone system manual, the NEC, and 
local codes for instructions on providing lightning and other over-
current protection. 
Wire outdoor Base Stations 
If the wiring for a Base Station exits a building—whether to reach an 
outdoor Base Station location or to reach a Base Station in another 
building—it should be equipped with primary protection according 
to the NEC and/or local codes.  
 
Wiring that exits the building must also be protected at both ends 
by a Quick Clip Fuse from Reliable Electric, part number RSCP-2. 
Insert the Quick Clip fuses in place of bridging clips on a 66 block 
for the non-internal Base Station circuits. 
Mount and connect outdoor Base Stations 
1.  Mount the outdoor Base Station enclosure to a wall or pole. The 
enclosure should be attached at the highest point available that 
will provide central coverage for the outdoor area. 
2.  Insert the Base Station wire through the compression fitting and 
tighten the fitting.  
3.  Wire the Base Station connector the same way as the RJ-45 
connectors for the indoor Base Stations. 
4.  Place the Base Station inside the enclosure with the part number 
label facing the back of the enclosure.
