ARSVD01480 Release 8 Draft 1.1 June 2012 Safety Requirements ARRIS Data Gateways comply with the applicable requirements for performance, construction, labeling, and information when used as outlined below: CAUTION Risk of shock Mains voltages inside this unit. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer service to qualified personnel only! • Do not use product near water (i.e. wet basement, bathtub, sink or near a swimming pool, etc.), to avoid risk of electrocu tion. • Do not use spray cleaners or aerosols on the gateway. • The product shall be cleaned using only a damp, lint-free, cloth. No sol- vents or cleaning agents shall be used. • Avoid using and/or connecting the equipment during an electri cal storm, to avoid risk of electrocution. • Do not locate the equipment within 6 feet (1.9 m) of a flame or ignition source (i.e. heat registers, space heaters, fireplaces, etc.). • Use only power supply and power cord included with the equip ment. • 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 in- stallation 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 instal lation equipotential bonding requirements are specified in IEC 60728-11, Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interac- tive services, Part 11: Safety. This equipment is in tended to be installed in accordance with the requirements of IEC 60728-11 for safe operation. Touchstone DG860P2 Data Gateway User’s Guide Safety Getting Started Installation Ethernet Configuration UsageTroubleshootingGlossary 3 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, spe cial attention should be given that the installation is in accor dance 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 Conver sion) on the AC, RF, and Ethernet lines. • When the Data Gateway is connected to a local computer through Ethernet cables, the computer must be proper ly 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 spec- ifications. • Ensure proper ventillation. Position the Data Gateway so that air flows freely around it and the ventillation holes on the unit are not blocked. • Do not mount the Data Gateway 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. Touchstone DG860P2 Data Gateway User’s Guide Safety Getting Started Installation Ethernet Configuration UsageTroubleshootingGlossary 4 FCC Part 15 This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the requirements for a Class B digital device under Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules. These requirements are intended to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in ac- cordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communi- cations. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the fol- lowing measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit diffe…
