IMPORTANT CONNECTION NOTES
It is important to note that your surge suppressor has “Power Save” and
“Always On” outlets. “Power Save” outlets will have AC power cut to them
approximately 3 minutes after the GREEN “Power Save” technology detects that
total power consumption in the “Power Save” outlets has dropped 70%. “Power
Save” outlets are recommended for intermittent-use devices such as TVs,
receivers, monitors, printers, scanners, lamps, DVD players, gaming consoles,
amplifiers and speaker systems.
“Always On” outlets provide continuous power even after the “Power Save”
outlets are turned OFF. These outlets are recommended for critical devices such
as modems, routers, external drives, cordless phones, fax machines, DVRs
(TiVo
®
), cable and satellite boxes.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Phone Jacks (Optional
Installation): Connect a phone cable from the wall jack directly to the surge
suppressor’s RJ-style phone jack labeled “IN.” Connect a phone cable from the
surge suppressor’s RJ-style phone jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to
be protected. All models with phone line surge protection protect devices on a
single line only. The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected
in line from the wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire,
grounded AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Network Jacks* (Optional
Installation): Connect a data cord from the wall jack or cable/DSL modem
directly to the surge suppressor’s network jack labeled “IN.” Connect a data
cord from the surge suppressor’s network jack labeled “OUT” directly to the
device to be protected (typically a computer’s network interface card). The surge
suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet
source (typically a wall jack). The surge suppressor must be plugged into a
3-wire grounded AC outlet for network line surge protection to work.
* 10/100 BaseT/TX, Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Coaxial Jacks (Optional
Installation): Connect a coaxial cable from the wall jack directly to the surge
suppressor’s “F”-style coaxial jack labeled “IN.” Connect a coaxial cable from
the surge suppressor’s “F”-style coaxial jack labeled “OUT” directly to the
device to be protected. Select models include a second set of coaxial jacks
for simultaneous connection and protection of devices on two separate lines
(cable, antenna or satellite). The surge suppressor must always be the first item
connected in line from the coaxial wall jack. The surge suppressor must be
plugged into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to
work.
