Use only the power cord included with the equipment.
Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should be eas-
ily accessible.
The shield of the coaxial cable must be connected to earth (grounded)
at the entrance to the building in accordance with applicable national
electrical installation codes. In the U.S., this is required by NFPA 70
(National Electrical Code) Article 820. In the European Union and
cerain other countries, CATV installation equipotential bonding
requirements are specified in IEC 60728-11, Cable networks for televi-
sion signals, sound signals and interactive services, Part 11: Safety.
This equipment is intended to be installed in accordance with the
requirements of IEC 60728-11 for safe operation.
If the equipment is to be installed in an area serviced by an IT power
line network, as is found in many areas of Norway, special attention
should be given that the installation is in accordance with IEC 60728-
11, in particular Annex B and Figure B.4.
In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and areas
prone to lightning strikes, additional surge protection may be required
(i.e. PF11VNT3 from American Power Conversion) on the AC, RF,
Ethernet and Phone lines.
When the Telephony Modem is connected to a local computer through
an Ethernet cable, the computer must be properly grounded to the
building/residence AC ground network. All plug in cards within the
computer must be properly installed and grounded to the computer
frame per the manufacturer’s specifications.
