Safety Requirements

ARRIS Telephony Modems comply with the applicable requirements for

performance, construction, labeling, and information when used as

outlined below:

• The Telephony Modem is designed to be connected directly to

a telephone.

• Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's existing tele-

phone wiring should only be performed by a professional in-

staller.

• Do not use product near water (i.e. wet basement, bathtub,

sink or near a swimming pool, etc.), to avoid risk of electrocu-

tion.

• Avoid using and/or connecting the equipment during an electri-

cal storm, to avoid risk of electrocution.

• Do not locate the equipment within 6 feet (1.9 m) of a flame or

ignition source, to avoid damage or injury from battery explo-

sion (i.e. heat registers, space heaters, fireplaces, etc.).

• Use only power supply and power cord included with the equip-

ment.

• Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should

be easily accessible.The RF drop cable’s shield must be ground-

ed at the building/residence either close to the point of en-

trance or at the point of attachment. It should be grounded as

close as practical to the building/residence AC ground to mini-

mize grounding connector length and thereby limit the poten-

tial voltage differences between the cable TV coaxial cable and

other grounding systems. Refer to the individual country’s Na-

tional Electric Code for further details.

• In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and

areas prone to lightning strikes, additional surge protection

may be required (i.e. PF11VNT3 from American Power Conver-

sion) on the AC, RF, Ethernet and Phone lines.

• When the embedded multimedia terminal adapter (EMTA) is

connected to a local computer through USB or Ethernet cables,

the computer must be properly grounded to the building/resi-

dence AC ground network. All plug-in cards within the comput-

er must be properly installed and grounded to the computer

frame per the manufacturer’s specifications.

CAUTION

Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's

existing telephone wiring should only be performed

by a professional installer. Physical connections to

the previous telephone provider must be removed

and the wiring must be checked; there must not be

any voltages. Cancellation of telephone service is not

adequate. Failure to do so may result in loss of

service and/or permanent damage to the EMTA.
