Safety

Before installing the equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.

Operating Conditions for the United Kingdom

In addition to the warnings and safety guidelines listed in the section “Translated Safety Warnings” section on page 14 in this document, the following warnings and safety guidelines apply to routers used in the United Kingdom:

The router is designed to meet the requirements of interim CTR3 for Basic Rate Access.

Interconnection directly, or by way of other apparatus, of ports marked: “Safety Warning—See instructions for use

with ports marked or not so marked may produce hazardous conditions on the network, and that advice should be obtained from a competent engineer before such a connection is made.

The BRI connector must be hardwired permanently to the S-reference connection point by using a connect one-time-only, nonremovable plug (RJ-45 with the latch tab removed).

The ports marked “10BaseT,” “Console,” and “ISDN” have a safety warning applied to them as follows:

“These ports do not provide isolation sufficient to satisfy the requirement of EN41003; apparatus connected to these ports should either have been approved to EN41003 or have previously been evaluated against B5E301 British Telecommunications plc (Post Office) Technical Guides 2 or 26 and given permission to attach; any other usage will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus.”

Other usage will invalidate any approval given to this apparatus if as a result it ceases to comply with EN41003:1993.

This apparatus must be connected to a main socket outlet with a protective earth contact.
