Caution Statements
Improper connection, mounting, or use of this product could result in component failure or
undesired interference. Read the following caution statements before setting up and operating
your C/Port.
Setup
• Do not connect to AC power until all other connections are made, including the power
adapter. Connecting or disconnecting components or equipment on the back panel when
the C/Port is receiving AC power can cause power surges and damage the device.
• Do not force a connector into its socket. If any undue resistance is encountered, ensure that
the connector is correctly oriented to the receptacle.
• Do not attach the C/Port to a telephone jack or other powered network connection. This
will permanently damage the C/Port. This damage is not covered under the ClearCube
Technology limited warranty.
• Do not connect or disconnect USB devices or other peripherals during either the C/Port or
the blade start-up sequence. Unpredictable results will occur.
Orientation and Venting
Allow sufficient space around the C/Port for ventilation. Do not place the device in any
enclosure that restricts airflow around the device. Do not place any objects on the device.
Product environmental specifications are listed on page Appendix B. "Specifications" on
page 41.
Power Sources
• To ensure regulatory compliance, use only the power supply included in the shipping
carton with the C/Port, or a ClearCube-approved equivalent.
• Surge protectors for electrical devices are recommended in areas of frequent lightning.
However, when lightning is occurring, your equipment should be properly shut down and
unplugged from AC power until the storm has passed.
