Connecting an Instant Internet unit to the network
Important safety information
To avoid contact with electrical current:
Never install electrical wiring during an electrical storm
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless that jack is specifically designed for wet locations
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines
Use a screwdriver and other tools with insulated handles
You and those around you should wear safety glasses or goggles
Do not place telephone wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet or junction box containing electrical wiring
Warning: Do not work on your telephone wiring if you wear a pacemaker. Telephone lines carry electrical current.
Installation of inside wire may bring you close to electrical wire, conduit, terminals and other electrical facilities.
Extreme caution must be used to avoid electrical shock from such facilities. You must avoid contact with all such
facilities.
Telephone wiring must be at least 6 feet from bare power wiring or lightning rods and associated wires, and at
least 6 inches from other wire (antenna wires, doorbell wires, wires from transformers to neon signs), steam or
hot water pipes, and heating ducts.
Before working with existing inside wiring, check all electrical outlets for a square telephone dial light
transformer and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Failure to unplug all telephone transformers can cause
electrical shock.
Do not place a jack where it would allow a person to use the telephone while in a bathtub, shower, swimming
pool, or similar hazardous location.
Protectors and grounding wire placed by the service provider must not be connected to, removed, or modified
by the customer.
Specific information related to different types of communication
connections
Connecting an Instant Internet unit containing an analog modem
It is not necessary to notify the telephone company before installing the modem. However, the telephone company
may request the telephone number(s) to which the unit is connected and the related FCC information including the
FCC Part 68 registration number and the ringer equivalence number.
Be sure that the telephone line you are connecting the modem to is a standard analog line and not a digital (PBX),
party, or coin telephone line. If the modem is malfunctioning, it may affect the telephone lines. In this case,
disconnect the modem until the source of the difficulty is traced.
Connecting an Instant Internet unit containing an ISDN modem with NT
When connecting this version of the product to the network, avoid contact with the Telecommunications lead wire.
Telephone wiring can carry dangerous voltage from electrical faults or lightning.
The product is equipped with a standard 8-pin RJ-49C jack for connection to the ISDN network.
If you need to add wiring to your facility, refer to the National ISDN Users Forum document NIUF 433-94 ISDN
Wiring and Powering Guidelines (Residence and Small Business).
