Installation Assumptions
The following assumptions can be made when referring to the details of this installation:
y
That the fiber optic drop cable has been buried and will enter the unit from the
ground upwards.
y
That aerial drop installations are accommodated by looping the drop cable around
and underneath the unit.
y
That the drop cable incorporates a metallic shield for EMI protection.
y
That there is sufficient space available for mounting the uninterruptible power
supply, somewhere in the vicinity of the ONT.
Site Preparation
Before you mount an ONT to the side of the home or business, you must consider all
incoming and outgoing cables or wires and where they can most easily be routed.
WARNING!
It is critical that you maintain the proper airflow in and around
the ONT in its final mounted location. Only surface mount the enclosure. Do
not install siding or other building material around the outside of the
enclosure. Doing so could create excessive heat and ultimately product
failure.
Before making a final determination as to the enclosures location, you need to consider the
proper clearances needed for swinging covers, latches or locks.
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed 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 accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. 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 following measures:
y
Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
y
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
y
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
y
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
y
Care should be taken when handling fiber optic cable in order not to exceed
manufacturer’s stringent bend radius parameters. The use of vendor specified radius
clips is highly recommended.
