8. Important Safety Information
To avoid contact with electrical current:
• Never install electrical wiring during an electrical storm.
• Never install an Ethernet connection in wet locations unless that connector
is specifically designed for wet locations.
• Use caution when installing or modifying Ethernet lines.
• Use a screwdriver and other tools with insulated handles.
• You and those around you should wear safety glasses or goggles.
• Do not place Ethernet wiring or connections in any conduit, outlet or
junction box containing electrical wiring.
• 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.
• Ethernet 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.
• Do not place an Ethernet connection where it would allow a person to use
an Ethernet device 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.
• Do not touch uninsulated Ethernet wiring if lightning is likely!
• External Wiring: Any external communications wiring you may install
needs to be constructed to all relevant electrical codes. In the United
States this is the National Electrical Code Article 800. Contact a licensed
electrician for details.
•
Do not touch or move the antenna(s) while the unit is transmitting or
receiving.
