SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: Do not install the bridge near overhead power lines, electric light or power circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. Provide ten feet or more clearance between the bridge and such power lines or circuits. Do not install the bridge flush with the rooftop or wall. When installing the bridge, do not come into contact with such circuits, which can cause serious injury or death. Follow local and national codes for proper installation and grounding of antennas.

WARNING: To comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, antennas should be located at least two meters (six feet) or more from the bodies of

all persons.

WARNING: Do not install the bridge or connect and disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

WARNING: To avoid possible injury or damage to equipment, you must use either the provided power supply or IEEE 802.3af compliant power supply equipment that is safety certified according to UL, CSA, IEC, or other applicable national or international safety requirements for the country of use. All references to power supply in this document refer to equipment meeting these requirements.

WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the Power-over-Ethernet (POE) power supply is properly connected. Connection to any other device, such as a standard Ethernet card or another POE supply, may result in permanent damage to equipment, electric shock, or fire. Refer to the installation instructions for proper installation.

WARNING: The 3Com power supply (part number 61-0107-000) input relies on a 16A rated building fuse or circuit protector for short circuit protection of the line to neutral conductors.

CAUTION: A lightning arrestor will not prevent damage from direct lightning strikes. It is extremely important to ensure that the bridge is installed at least 1

meter (3 feet) below the top of the grounded pole or mast.

CAUTION: If you supply your own Ethernet cable for connecting power, be sure that it is outdoor rated category 5 straight-through (8-wire) cable that has not been altered in any way (3Com part number 3CWE487 recommended). Use of nonstandard cable could damage the bridge.

CAUTION: Minimize damage from direct lightning strikes by mounting the bridge at least 1 Meter (3 feet) below the top of the mast.
