SPECIFICATIONS
COMMSGUARD
The Sollatek CommsGuard is
designed to give protection against
signal line (i.e. Data or Telephone
or Modem or Fax) borne spikes and
surges. These spikes are generally
caused by nearby lightning strikes
or by switching of motorised
equipment. The CommsGuard also
offers spike/surge suppression on
the mains.
By connecting to a CommsGuard you will ensure clean, safe
power for your valuable telecommunications equipment.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.
1. Ensure that you received an RJ11-RJ11 black telephone
cable with your CommsGuard.
2. Make sure that your load does not exceed the rating of the
CommsGuard (13A).
3. Plug the CommsGuard into the mains outlet.
●
The outlet
must be earthed. If not or you are unsure, then contact your
electrician or a Sollatek retailer.
