Safety Precautions and Installation Guidelines
To ensure reliable and safe long-term operation, please note the following installation
guidelines:
 Do not use CATx- devices to link between buildings – please use fibre devices.
 Only use in dry, indoor environments.
 If the building has 3-phase AC power, try to ensure that equipment connected to the
Local and Remote Units is on the same phase.
 Try not to route a CATx- link cable alongside power cables.
 The Remote Unit, Local Unit and any power supplies can get warm. Do not locate them
in an enclosed space without any airflow.
 Do not place a power supply directly on top of a unit.
 Do not obscure a unit’s ventilation holes.
To safeguard against personal injury and avoid possible
damage to equipment or property, please observe the
following:
 Only use power supplies originally supplied with the
product or manufacturer-approved replacements. Do not
attempt to dismantle or repair any power supply. Do not
use a power supply if it appears to be defective or has a
damaged case.
 Connect all power supplies to grounded outlets. In each
case, ensure that the ground connection is maintained
from the outlet socket through to the power supply’s AC
power input.
 Do not attempt to modify or repair this product, or make
a connection from the CATx- link interface (RJ45) to any
other products, especially telecommunications or
network equipment.
