Safety Information

Follow these safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your
system from potential damage:
• For national approvals (approval schemes other than CB), relevant national standards for
plug, socket-outlet, and direct plug-in units (for example, US) shall also be consulted
while testing and approving such products according to the national standards.
• Check the electrical current for any device plugged into the filtered AC socket. Do not
exceed home and product outlet ratings and electrical requirements.
• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and be easily accessible.
• Only power cords are allowed to be inserted into the filtered AC socket; no other
equipment with a direct plug-in is allowed. Power cords needs to be a maximum of 1 m
long and a minimum of 0.75 mm
• Do not plug devices into the Powerline PassThru Adapter filtered AC outlet that exceed
the product ratings. The output voltage of the filtered AC outlet is the same as the power
outlet that the Powerline PassThru Adapter is plugged into. To help avoid damaging your
system, be sure that the attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power
available in your location.
• If the input AC voltage is less than 100 Vac, the device plugged into the filtered AC socket
of the Powerline PassThru Adapter might not perform as well as expected.
• DO NOT PLUG MAJOR HOME APPLIANCES into the filtered AC socket or into an
attached power strip. The device is not intended to be used with home appliances such
as air conditioners, power tools, space heaters, fans, hair dryers, ovens, or refrigerators.
• Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including
volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead,
lower actual data throughput rate.
• Do not service any product except as explained in your system documentation.
• Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning
bolt can expose you to electrical shock. Only a trained service technician should service
components inside these compartments.
• Use the product only with approved equipment.
• Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
• To help avoid damaging your system, be sure that the voltage selection switch (if
provided) on the power supply is set to match the power available at your location:
- 110 volts (V), 60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far
Eastern countries such as South Korea and Taiwan
- 100V, 50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100V, 60 Hz in western Japan
- 230V, 50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East
• The peripheral power cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper
grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable.
