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
European Union and in certain other countries, CATV installation equipotential bonding
requirements are specified in IEC 60728-11, Cable networks for television 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 Gateway is connected to a local computer through Ethernet cables,

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.
Ensure proper ventilation. Position the Telephony Gateway so that air flows freely

around it and the ventilation holes on the unit are not blocked.
Do not mount the Telephony Gateway on surfaces that are sensitive to heat and/or

which may be damaged by the heat generated by the modem, its power supply, or other
accessories.
