  • Page 12 The device is a power-required device, meaning it will not work till it is powered. If your networks should be active all the time, please consider using UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for your device. It will prevent you from network data loss or network downtime. In some areas, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect your Media Converter from being damaged by unregulated surge or current to the converter or the power adapter.
