GE SmartCom Door Station Installation Instructions

Introduction
This is the GE SmartCom Door Station Installation Instructions
for model CC-SCDOR1.
SmartCom provides a modular, expandable system for the distri-
bution of music and intercom functions throughout the home.
Up to two door stations can be added per system. The door
station includes a weather-resistant speaker, a sensitive micro-
phone, and a door bell call button (Figure 1). When you press the
door bell call button, it initiates a door bell sound in the intercom
system. When the intercom room station answers, you can talk
back hands free at the door station.

Installation
Door stations can only be connected to the first (Master)
intercom hub. Refer to your intercom hub documentation for
details.
To connect the door station to the intercom hub, see Figure 2 and
do the following:
1. Connect one end of a CAT 5 cable to the back of the door
station using one of the following connections:
• RJ45 jack with both of the ends of the cable wired the
same, 568A standard (see
page 2).
• The 110-style punchdown block (follow the wiring
color code in Figure 2).
CAUTION: If you use the punchdown block, you
must wire the RJ45 end per 568A
standard.
2. Connect the other end of the CAT 5 cable to the front of the
intecom hub in the Door 1 or Door 2 RJ45 jack Be sure the
RJ45 on the intercom hub end is wired per 568A standard.
Note: We do not recommend using the RJ45 jack for harsh
environments, wet or extremely humid locations. Use the
punchdown block for the most reliable connection. Use the
correct 110 punchdown tool and follow 568A wiring
standard.
3. Set the speaker volume as desired by adjusting the volume
level pot on the back of the door station.
4. Mount the door station in a single-gang box using the
screws provided.
