Installing the SR Modem in the Multi-Purpose Shelter

 

Consult the Multi-Purpose Shelter manual for mounting instructions. You will 
still need to use the manual supplied with the SR Modem itself for instructions 
on connecting twisted-pair cable to the terminal blocks.

 

Using Surge Protectors with the Short-Range Modem Pair

 

The SR modems contain 600 Watt surge protectors. If the cable run between 
modems is exposed to lightning-induced or other surges, you may want to add 
additional surge protectors at one or both ends of the cable. Two Surge Protec-
tors (Davis Product # 7767) housed in a Small Surge Protector Shelter 
(Davis Product #7768) are well-suited for this. If the cable is exposed, we sug-
gest the use of one pair of surge protectors where the cable enters the building 
containing the computer.
