Technical Considerations
Before you mount the adapter to a fixed location, consider the
following:
• Determine optimal placement.
• Collect and document network information as required.
• Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet network source to
the powered device does not exceed 100 meters.
• Connect the unit to a grounding type AC outlet (100 ‐240
VAC), using the standard power cord or power supply
supplied.
• Allow for easy access to disconnect the unit from the AC
outlet, if necessary.
• Do not cover the unit or block the airflow with any other
objects. Keep the unit away from excessive heat, humidity,
vibration and dust.
• Installation must at all times conform to local regulations.
• There are no user serviceable parts inside the adapter. If
support is needed, refer to “
