Safety information

For use in dry, oil free indoor environments only.

Do not use to link between buildings.

Not suitable for use in hazardous or explosive environments or next to highly flammable materials.

Ensure that all twisted pair interconnect cables are installed in compliance with all applicable wiring regulations.

Do not connect the CATx link interface (RJ45 style connector) to any other equipment, particularly network or telecommunications equipment.

Where possible, avoid laying the twisted pair link cable(s) alongside power cables.

Warning – the power adapter contains live parts.

No user serviceable parts are contained within the power adapter - do not dismantle.

The primary means to cease operation of the modules is to remove the power adapter lead. Ensure that the power adapter is positioned near to the equipment and is easily accessible.

Do not use the power adapter if the power adapter case becomes damaged, cracked or broken or if you suspect that it is not operating properly.

Replace the power adapter with a manufacturer approved type only.

If you use a power extension cable with the modules, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cable do not exceed the cable’s ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total ampere rating of all the devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

Do not attempt to service the modules yourself.

The modules and power supplies can get warm in operation – do not situate them in an enclosed space without any ventilation.

The modules do not provide ground isolation and should not be used for any applications that require ground isolation or galvanic isolation.

Use only with grounded outlets at both the computer and monitor. When using a backup power supply (UPS), power the computer, the monitor and the module from the same supply.

For correct operation, the transmitter and receiver modules must have ground connections. At the computer end, this is achieved by ensuring that the computer that the module is connected to has a ground connection. At the audio/visual device end, this can be achieved by ensuring that the power supply is connected to a grounded power outlet. Alternatively, a ground connection will be made via the monitor, if the monitor is itself grounded.
