AL-CAT5PW Installation Instructions
1. Slots required in Cable Grommet to insert wires. (Cable Grommet
is removable)
2. Strip back CAT5 cables and using a punch down tool (not included) attach
the color coded twisted pair wires to the terminal blocks. Note that the cable's
twisted pair wires must enter the terminal blocks as shown. The pc board should
be removed and layed on a flat surface to ensure proper insertion of the
twisted pair wires with the punch down tool.
3. Attach ground wire to the included Ground Lug (12 AWG max.) and attach
it to terminal inside the protector. This ground lug can be mounted below
the pc board if attaching an additional shielding ground to the protector's
ground terminal (see diagram below).
Grounding Note: To ensure proper operation of protector, install an
earth ground to the ground lug in the protector. Please refer to the
National Electric Code (or your local codes) for additional information
or contact a licensed electrician for assistance.
4. If mounting this unit to a wall or other surface, break-away holes are
provided on the rear of the unit.
Note: This unit provides Bi-Directional Protection, input and output
