Safety Information

Follow these safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect
your system from potential damage:
• For national approvals (approval schemes other than CB), relevant national standards
for plug, socket-outlet, and direct plug-in units (for example, US) shall also be
consulted while you are testing and approving such products according to the
national standards.
• Check the electrical current for any device plugged into the filtered AC socket. Do
not exceed home and product outlet ratings and electrical requirements.
• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and be easily accessible.
• Only power cords are allowed to be inserted into the filtered AC socket; no other
equipment with a direct plug-in is allowed. Power cords must be a maximum of 1 m
long and a minimum of 0.75 mm
• Do not plug devices into the PowerLINE PassThru Adapter filtered AC outlet that
exceed the product ratings. The output voltage of the filtered AC outlet is the same
as the power outlet that the PowerLINE PassThru Adapter is plugged into. To help
avoid damaging your system, be sure that the attached devices are electrically rated
to operate with the power available in your location.
• If the input AC voltage is less than 100 VAC, the device plugged into the filtered AC
socket of the PowerLINE PassThru Adapter might not perform as well as expected.
• DO NOT PLUG MAJOR HOME APPLIANCES into the filtered AC socket or into an
attached power strip. The device is not intended to be used with home appliances
such as air conditioners, power tools, space heaters, fans, hair dryers, ovens, or
refrigerators.
• Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors,
including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network
overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
• Do not service any product except as explained in your system documentation.
• Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a
lightning bolt can expose you to electrical shock. Only a trained service technician
should service components inside these compartments.
• Use the product only with approved equipment.
• Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
