Tsunami MP.11 Installation and Management

▪ The unit must not be covered and the air must be able to flow freely around the unit.

▪ The unit must be kept away from vibration, excessive heat, and humidity, and kept free from

dust.

▪ The installation must conform to local regulations at all times.

INSTALLATION

The MP.11 supports two power methodsan AC power outlet and Active Ethernet. The power supply

accepts an input AC voltage in the range of 100-240 VAC.

The installation procedure on page 9 provides instructions for attaching both the power and Ethernet

connectors.

WARNING! For your own safety, use only the power cord supplied with the unit. The

metal case of the MP-11 must be grounded through the ground connection

that is provided on the metal case. The antenna grounding, the surge

arrestor, and the MP.11 housing must be bonded together and grounded in

one location to avoid ground current loops.

In situations without an external antenna (for example, during a desk tryout), the antenna cable is

not required.
