Note Calls attention to important information.
Safety when working with electricity
The shock hazard symbol and WARNING heading indicate a potential electric
shock hazard. Strictly follow the warning instructions to avoid injury caused by
electric shock.
The alert symbol and WARNING heading indicate a potential safety hazard.
Strictly follow the warning instructions to avoid personal injury.
The shock hazard symbol and CAUTION heading indicate a potential electric shock haz-
ard. Strictly follow the instructions to avoid property damage caused by electric shock.
The alert symbol and CAUTION heading indicate a potential hazard. Strictly follow the
instructions to avoid property damage.
The SmartNode device contains no user serviceable parts, and is not be opened
by the user. The equipment shall be returned to Patton Electronics for repairs or
repaired by qualified service personnel.
Mains Voltage: In systems without a power switch, line voltages are present in the
power supply when the power cord is connected. The mains outlet used to power
the SmartNode device shall be within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, be easily
accessible, and protected by a circuit breaker.
For AC powered units, ensure that the power cable used meets all applicable stan-
dards for the country in which it is to be installed, and that it is connected to a wall
outlet which has earth ground.
For units with an external power adapter, the adapter shall be a listed Limited
Power Source.
Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether
power to the SmartNode is ON or OFF. To avoid electric shock, use caution when
near WAN ports. When detaching the cables, detach the end away from the Smart-
Node first.

Warnhinweise:
Before handling the device, disconnect the telephone network cables to avoid
contact with telephone line voltages. When detaching the cables, detach the end
away from the SmartNode device first.
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.
Dieses Gerät ist NICHT für den Anschluss an das Telefonnetz (PSTN) bestimmt
und auch NICHT dafür zugelassen. Es ist nur für den Anschluss an Endgeräte
beim Kunden vorgesehen.
•Das Gerät entält keine austauschbaren Komponenten und ist vom Benutzer nicht zu
öffnen. Bei Systemen ohne Netzschalter und ohne externes Netzteil liegt Netzspan-
nung im Gerät an, wenn das Netzkabel angeschlossen ist.
•Bei Geräten mit externem Netzteil muss das Netzteil die Anforderungen an eine zuge-
lassene Stromquelle mit begrenzter Leistung erfüllen. Die Steckdose, die für die
Stromversorgung des Gerätes verwendet wird, sollte höchstens 3 Meter vom Gerät
entfernt und leicht zugänglich sein sowie durch einen den örtlichen regulatorischen
Anforderungen entsprechenden Schutzschalter abgesichert sein.
•Für mit Wechselstrom betriebene Geräte muss sichergestellt sein, dass das verwen-
dete Netzkabel alle gültigen Normen des Landes erfüllt, in dem es eingesetzt werden
soll.
•Für mit Wechselstrom betriebene Geräte, die 3-polige Netzstecker haben (L1, L2 u.
GND oder Phase, Neutralleiter u. Schutzleiter), muss die Steckdose geerdet sein.
•Für mit Gleichstrom betriebene Geräte muss sichergestellt sein, dass die Verbindung-
skabel für Spannung, Strom, erwartete Temperatur, Entflammbarkeit und mecha-
nische Wartbarkeit geeignet sind.
•WAN-, LAN- u. PSTN-Ports (Anschlüsse) können unter gefährlicher Spannung ste-
hen, unabhängig davon, ob das Gerät ein- oder ausgeschaltet ist. PSTN bezieht sich
auf Schnittstellen wie Telefon, FXS, FXO, DSL, xDSL, T1, E1, ISDN, Voice, usw. Diese
sind als „gefährliche Netzwerkspannungen“ bekannt. Um einen elektrischen Schlag zu
vermeiden, muss in der Nähe dieser Anschlüsse mit Vorsicht gearbeitet werden.
Werden Kabel von diesen Anschlüssen getrennt, zuerst das Kabel am anderen Ende
herausziehen.
•Während eines Gewitters darf nicht am Gerät gearbeitet werden und es dürfen keine
Kabel angeschlossen oder vom Netz getrennt werden.
