Safety Warnings

Ethernet Ports Caution

The Ethernet ports are not designed to be connected to a Public Telecommunication Network or used outside the
building.

Handling Precautions

All devices must be handled with certain precautions to avoid damage due to the accumulation of static charge.
Although input protection circuitry has been incorporated into the devices to minimize the effect of this static
build up, proper precautions should be taken to avoid exposure to electrostatic discharge during handling and
mounting.
Caution: Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) between the transmitter's antenna and the
body of the user or nearby persons. The router is not designed for, nor intended to be, used in applications within
20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user.
