European Compliance - Arris Touchstone TG1652S User Manual

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 U.S.,
this is required by NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code) Article 820. 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.
