Important notice:
• Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the housing. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside the unit. Doing so will void your warranty.
• To minimize the possibility of equipment damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), all source and destination
equipment must be powered off during installation.
• Do not connect the device to a telecommunication outlet wired to unrelated equipment. Doing so may
damage the unit or any connected equipment. Ensure all connected twisted pair cabling is straight-through (point-
to-point).
• Allow proper ventilation to reduce the risk of thermal failure.
