Safety Warnings
1. Use this product only with UL- and CUL-listed computers.
2. To reduce the risk of fire, use only 26 AWG or larger telephone wiring.
3. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
4. Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
5. Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at
the network interface.
6. Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
7. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm; there is a risk of electrical
shock from lightning.
8. Do not use a telephone in the vicinity of a gas leak.
Caution: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. A lithium battery on the MultiAccess PC board
provides backup power for the time-keeping capability. The battery has an estimated life expectancy of ten years.
Contact Multi-Tech if you suspect a failed battery. If data and time are incorrect after having the unit powered off,
it may be due to a weak battery or incorrect setup.
Caution: The Ethernet ports are not designed to be connected to a Public Telecommunication Network.
Safety Recommendations for Rack Installations
• Ensure proper installation of the MultiAccess in a closed or multi-unit enclosure by following the
recommended installation as defined by the enclosure manufacturer. Do not place the MultiAccess
directly on top of other equipment or place other equipment directly on top of the MultiAccess.
• If installing the MultiAccess in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow within the rack so
that the maximum recommended ambient temperature is not exceeded.
• Ensure that the MultiAccess is properly connected to earth ground via a grounded power cord. If a power
strip is used, ensure that the power strip provides adequate grounding of the attached apparatus.
• Ensure that the mains supply circuit is capable of handling the load of the MultiAccess. Refer to the power
label on the equipment for load requirements.
• Maximum ambient temperature for the MultiAccess is 40 degrees Celsius (104° F).
• This equipment should only be installed by properly qualified service personnel.
• Only connect like circuits. In other words, connect SELV (Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to SELV
circuits and TN (Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.
