Installation
1. Connect the cables using the labels for a guide.
The labels, local and remote, are on the top surface of the P60. The P60 blocks a surge from both the local and the remote site, but
the LED indicators and the local host are protected only if the surge comes in from the remote port. We recommend that you keep the
P60 as close as possible to the local host. Otherwise you may risk damaging the P60 as well as the local host if a surge occurs between
the P60’s local port and the host.
If you are using the terminal block, note that the remote port and the terminal block are the same except that the DCD signal in not
available in the terminal block.
If you need to protect both local and remote hosts, you will need to install two P60s.
2. We recommend that you connect the GND at the terminal block to the earth ground to provide a ground path to prevent electrical
shock caused by lightning.
You should do this if you are using either the RJ45 connection or the terminal block. If possible, use the same ground that you use
on the device that you want to protect.
Caution
Earth Ground must be made in order to ensure product performance.
