4.2.1 Consider When Mounting
• Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration
should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature (40°C).
• Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
• Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition
is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply
wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.

5 Electrical
5.1 Power Connection
Warning: Failure to follow these steps may result in equipment damage, personal injury, and a voided
product warranty.
Insert the female end of the power cord into the receptacle on the rear of the unit. Connect the other end to
the power source. The product is rated 115/230 VAC, 1/0.7A, and 50/60Hz. The Allworx server will
automatically begin to power up once the power has been stable for a few seconds. This is part of the design
to automatically boot up after a power failure.
To help prevent electrical shock, the separate protective earthing terminal, located next to the power jack on
the rear panel, must be permanently connected to earth using 18 AWG wire or larger. (See Figure 2, item 14)

6 Server Configuration
The Allworx 48x provides an administrative interface to configure and administer the server. The administrative
interface is accessed using a web browser. Assuming the network settings are set to their factory defaults, the
steps to connect to this interface are:
2. Set up the PC’s network interface to obtain an IP address automatically (using DHCP).
3. Verify that the PC has an IP address on the 192.168.2.x network. You may need to release and renew the
PC’s IP address to get an address from the server.
5. When the “Welcome to Allworx” page appears, login using the default password: admin.
When the Home page appears, click on the Install Checklist link (on the left hand side) to bring up a new
window containing steps necessary to set up a new system. Each brief step description is followed by a link to
get to the appropriate administrative web page to execute the step. These steps are ordered to aid in a
successful configuration. Most of the web pages used to execute each step contain detailed feature
descriptions and help instructions that are required to carry out the step. Use the Allworx System
Administrator’s Guide** as a supplement for the information on the web pages when necessary.
If the server has been previously configured for another installation, you should restore it to its factory default
configuration. This can be done by:
1. Rebooting the server to Safe Mode by holding down the power button when the server is off, or selecting
Maintenance / Restart, and Enter Safe Mode after restart.
2. Format the disk and perform a Software Update (See Allworx System Administrator’s Guide** for
instructions).
