2-3 Site Requirements
The FCC requires telecommunication equipment to withstand electrical surge that
may result from lighting strikes. FMUX03 has been tested and found to comply with
the FCC requirement. Users should follow the precaution below to insure the safety
and minimize the risk of damage to the equipment:
Make sure that the power outlet is properly grounded. Please refer to article 250
of the National Electrical Code (NEC) Handbook.
Proper grounding should include a minimum of:
1) A grounded rod buried outside the building at least 8 feet (2.44 meters) deep.
2) It is preferred that the building uses metal water pipe and cooper connector at
the joint.
2) Any device connected to FMUX03 either directly or indirectly should use the
same set of power outlet.
