Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's AC Outlets: Plug your
equipment's power cords (including 2-wire devices) into the surge suppressor's AC
outlets. Select models feature integrated safety covers which cover the outlets when
not in use. Other models feature special widely-spaced outlets to accommodate
transformers without covering other outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords. DO NOT
OVERLOAD the surge suppressor's outlets. The surge suppressor can accommodate a
total equipment load of up to 15 amps (whether plugged into a single outlet or spread
out over multiple outlets). If the load on the surge suppressor exceeds 15 amps, the
circuit breaker* will trip and the outlets will stop providing power. If the circuit breaker
trips, reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to
reset. IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT WHEN IN "POWER-SAVING" MODE,
"POWER SAVE" OUTLETS WILL HAVE AC POWER CUT WHEN THE "MASTER" OUTLET
REACHES ITS "POWER-SAVING" THRESHOLD. PERIPHERALS AND COMPONENTS
THAT REQUIRE PERSONAL SETTINGS TO BE SAVED SHOULD NOT BE PLUGGED INTO
"POWER SAVE" OUTLETS. PLEASE CONSULT THE DIFFERENT OUTLET DESCRIPTIONS
IN THE FEATURES SECTION FOR RECOMMENDATIONS ON WHAT KIND OF
PERIPHERALS AND COMPONENTS TO PLUG INTO EACH OF THE DIFFERENT OUTLETS.
* Circuit breakers are integrated into the power switch on select models and offered as a separate feature on
other models.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Phone Jacks (Optional
Installation. Available on Select Models Only): Connect a phone cable from the
wall jack directly to the surge suppressor's RJ-style phone jack labeled "IN." Connect a
phone cable from the surge suppressor's RJ-style phone jack labeled "OUT" directly to
the device to be protected. All models with phone line surge protection protect devices
on a single line only. The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in
line from the wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire, grounded
AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Network Jacks* (Optional
Installation. Available on Select Models Only): Connect a data cord from the wall
jack or cable/DSL modem directly to the surge suppressor's network jack labeled "IN."
Connect a data cord from the surge suppressor's network jack labeled "OUT" directly
to the device to be protected (typically a computer's network interface card). The surge
suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet source
(typically a wall jack). The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire grounded
AC outlet for network line surge protection to work.
* 10/100 BaseT/TX, Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor's Coaxial Jacks (Optional
Installation. Available on Select Models Only): Connect a coaxial cable from the
wall jack directly to the surge suppressor's "F" style coaxial jack labeled "IN." Connect
a coaxial cable from the surge suppressor's "F" style coaxial jack labeled "OUT" directly
to the device to be protected. Select models include a second set of coaxial jacks
for simultaneous connection and protection of devices on two separate lines (cable,
antenna or satellite). The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected
in line from the coaxial wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire
grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work.
