General Safety Precautions
Do not expose the device to high temperature, dusts, or harmful gases. Do not install the device in an
inflammable or explosive environment. Keep the device away from EMI sources such as large radar stations,
radio stations, and substations. Do not subject the router to unstable voltage, vibration, and noises.
The installation site should remain dry. Keep the device at least 500 m (0.31 mile) away from the ocean and
do not face it towards the sea breeze.
The installation site should be free from water flooding, seepage, dripping, or condensation. The installation
site should be selected subject to the features of network planning and communication equipment, taking
into consideration the climate, hydrology, geology, earthquake, electrical power, and transportation.

2.3
Electric Safety
Observe local regulations and specifications during electric operations. Only personnel with relevant
qualifications can perform such operations.
Check whether there are potential risks in the work area. For example, check whether the power supply is
grounded, whether the grounding is reliable, and whether the ground is wet.
Learn about the position of the indoor emergency power switch before installation. Cut off the power switch
in case of accidents.
Make sure that the device is powered off when you cut off the power supply.
Do not place the device in a damp/wet location. Do not let any liquid enter the chassis.
Keep the device far away from grounding or lightning protection devices for power equipment.
Keep the device away from radio stations, radar stations, high-frequency high-current devices, and
microwave ovens.
Caution
●
Improper or incorrect electric operations may cause a fire, electric shock, and other accidents, and lead to
severe and fatal personal injury and device damage.
●
Direct or indirect contact with high voltage or mains power supply through wet objects may cause fatal
dangers.
