Safety and Installation Statement
Grounding
This is a Class II product that uses double insulation to provide electrical safety of the

To ensure correct operation, compliance with Class A and Class B electromagnetic emis-
sion standards, and optimal safety, connect the 4mm grounding stud (labeled “Earth” on
rear face of unit) to an electrical ground.
If the network covers an area served by more than one PDU, be sure their electrical
safety grounds are securely interconnected.
Network cabling may occasionally be subject to hazardous transient voltages (such as
lightning or disturbances in the electrical utilities power grid). Handle exposed metal
components of the installation with caution.
Servicing
There are no user-serviceable parts inside these products. Any maintenance or repair
