Page 13: Installation
CHAPTER 3: Installation 3. Installation Take the following installation precautions: 1. The protector must be installed directly on the communication port of the equipment being protected with no additional connections between the protector and the communication port. Any additional connections or wire length between the protector and the communication port will reduce the effectiveness of the protector. - Page 14 IN-LINE SURGE PROTECTORS 5. Each piece of network equipment being protected must also have an appropriate AC- power surge-suppression device with common mode and normal mode protection. 6. The electrical distribution system of the facility must be properly wired at each and every outlet served by the same branch circuits that supply power to network equipment.
