Vanguard 6435 Quick Start Manual

Introduction

Installing a Ferrite
Bead on a 6435 and
6455
Example
Installation
This Hardware Advisory Notice (HAN) applies to the Vanguard 6435 and 6455. A
ferrite bead is included with every G.SHDSL daughtercard shipped. The ferrite bead
installation is required only on the Vanguard 6435 and 6455.
This notice explains how to install a ferrite bead, which filters out line disturbances,
on audio and power cables. Installation of a bead is required to ensure compliance
with the European Union (EU) EMC Directive 89/336/EEC and compliance with
FCC Part 15, Class A. Failure to install the ferrite component will result in
non-compliance with the EU EMC Directive and may cause interference with other
electrical equipment.
Note
The bead is required on the Vanguard 6435 and 6455.
Before installing a ferrite bead on an audio cable, be sure you have the audio cable
that shipped with your G.SHDSL Daughtercard.
Step
Snugly wrap the cable twice completely around the bead (see Figure 1).
1
2 Set the cable into the bead cutouts.
Ensure 1 to 1-1/2 inches (25 to 38mm) of the cable protrudes from the
3
bead (on the end you insert into the G.SHDSL Daughtercard's rear panel
connector).
Snap the bead closed. You can re-open and close it to re-set the cable.
4
Insert the cable into the appropriate connector on the rear of the
5
G.SHDSL Daughtercard (with the ferrite bead closest to the
Daughtercard's rear panel connector).
Figure 1 on the following page shows how to install the ferrite bead on the cable.
