Warning: This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120
VAC, 15 A U.S. (240 VAC, 10 A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).
Warning: The unit must be grounded at all times when in use.
Warning: Do not connect the ETH2, ETH1,LAN, and FXS connectors directly to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), to an off premise
application, an out of plant application, any exposed plant application, or to any equipment other than the intended application, connection may result in a
safety hazard, and/or defective operation and/or equipment damage. Exposed plant means where any portion of the circuit is subject to accidental contact
with electric lighting or power conductors operating at a voltage exceeding 300 V between conductors or is subject to lightning strikes.
Warning: The Mediatrix unit must be installed on a circuit equipped with a breaker so that you can easily power the unit off if required.
Warning: Hazardous network voltages might be present in WAN, LAN, Sync, and telephony port connectors regardless of whether power to the device is
OFF or ON. Use caution when working near these connectors to avoid electric shocks.
Warning: The socket outlet, if used, shall be located near the equipment and shall be easily accessible by the user. The AC adaptor inlet is considered as
a disconnection device. The device must be readily operational.
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cords.
Caution: The RJ-11 cable should comply with UL 1863 and CSA C22.2 No 233 standards.

Warning: Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
Warning: Do not get this product wet or pour liquids into it.
Warning: Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws and regulations.
Keep your Mediatrix unit clear and dust-free during and after installation.
Locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working. Then, if an electrical accident occurs, you can act quickly to turn
off the power.
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
Do not open or disassemble this product.
The unit should be located at 20 cm from your monitor, computer casing or other peripheral including speakers.
When the unit is brought from a cold to a warm environment, condensation, that might be harmful to the unit, may occur. If this is the case, wait
one hour before powering the unit.

Electrostatic Discharge Prevention
When working on a Mediatrix unit, always wear an ESD wrist strap, ensuring that it makes a good contact with your bare skin.
Attach the ESD wrist strap end to an earth ground i.e. the grounding screw on the back of the Mediatrix unit or on an unpainted bare metal spot of
a grounded equipment rack.
