WARNING
RISK OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE AND NON-COMPLIANCE WITH IP67
Unused M12 connectors must not be left unprotected. If an M12 connector is not correctly connected to the end of another connector or standard cable, fit a sealing plug in order to ensure that the product is IP67 standard compliant. To ensure the IP67 protection index, check that the cover is screwed onto the base splitter box and that all connectors are fitted with cables or sealing plugs.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
