Manual Giga Connect Box
Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should be easily
accessible.
The shield of the coaxial cable must be connected to earth (grounded) at the
entrance to the building in accordance with applicable national electrical
installation codes. In the U.S., this is required by NFPA 70 (National Electrical
Code) Article 820. In the European Union and in certain other countries, CATV
installation equipotential bonding requirements are specified in IEC 60728-11,
Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services, Part
11: Safety. This equipment is intended to be installed in accordance with the
requirements of IEC 60728-11 for safe operation.
If the equipment is to be installed in an area serviced by an IT power line network,
as is found in many areas of Norway, special attention should be given that the
installation is in accordance with IEC 60728-11, in particular Annex B and
Figure B.4.
In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and areas prone to
lightning strikes, additional surge protection may be required (i.e. PF11VNT3 from
American Power Conversion) on the AC, RF, Ethernet and Phone lines.
When the Giga Connect Box is connected to a local computer through Ethernet
cables, the computer must be properly grounded to the building/residence AC
ground network. All plug-in cards within the computer must be properly installed
and grounded to the computer frame per the manufacturer’s specifications.
Ensure proper ventilation. Position the Giga Connect Box so that air flows freely
around it and the ventilation holes on the unit are not blocked.
Do not mount the Giga Connect Box on surfaces that are sensitive to heat and/or
which may be damaged by the heat generated by the modem, its power supply, or
other accessories.
