guidance related to installing the product.
Note
This product is intended for installation and use only in environments where all RS-232 and PoE/PoE+
connections originate within the building.
Or in UL's preferred phrasing...
PoE-type networks connected to this equipment are for intra-building use only and should not be

Don't Void Your Warranty!
Caution
This product is for indoor use. Do not install it outdoors or in a humid environment without the appropriate
protective enclosure. Do not allow it to come into contact with any liquid.
Do not install or operate this product if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to liquids. If any of these
things happen, return it to Vaddio for safety and functional testing.
Cabling Notes
Use Cat-5e or better cable and standard RJ-45 connectors (568B termination). We recommend using high-
quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
Caution
When building cables for Vaddio products, do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors. If
they are crimped incorrectly, they can cause intermittent connections and degrade signal
quality. Incorrectly crimped pass-through connectors can also damage the connectors on
the product, which will void your warranty.

Use Cat-5e or better cable. We recommend using high-quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
We recommend shielded cabling if the cables will be coiled, run tightly with other cables, or placed close to
sources of electromagnetic interference such as power lines.
Caution
Check your cables. Connecting a cable to the wrong port or using the wrong pin-out can result in equipment
damage and will void the warranty.
Pro Tip
To prevent tragic mishaps, label both ends of every cable.
