Safety Warnings
Ethernet Port Caution
The Ethernet port is not designed to be connected to a Public Telecommunication Network.
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 modem is not designed for, nor
intended to be, used in applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user.
