    NOTE: Items of special importance will be marked by a pointing-hand icon, as this paragraph is. For conceptual discussions, PacketMax 120/320 is used interchangeably with SS or Subscriber Stations in many places of this user manual. Similarly, PacketMax 5000 and PM 3000 is used interchangeably with BS or Base Station in may places of this user manual.
  • Page 13 NEC sections 810 and 820. See the instructions in Chapter 4 of this manual. For the PacketMax 120 Series Indoor Unit, use an outlet that contains surge pro- tection and ground fault protection, or use a surge protection device. This will protect the Indoor Unit and equipment connected to it from damage resulting from AC current surges, lightning, etc.
