■ Electrostatic — Always use ESD grounding devices when handling
system components.
■ Humidity — Operating and storage humidity must remain within these
ranges:
■ Operating: 10% – 90% (noncondensing)
■ Temp erat u re — Operating and storage temperatures must remain
within these ranges:
■ Operating: 0° to 40°c
■ Storage: -40° to 75°c

Pre-Installation Considerations
When planning the installation, please keep these considerations in mind:
■ Ensure that the cables are the appropriate length for your installation.
■ Ensure that the power cable you are using is long enough to reach the
power source.
■ ADC provides cables to connect the Fiber modules. The ADC-provided
cable consists of an AMP MPX connector on one end, and a duplex SC
connector on the other. If the connection to your network does not utilize
SC connectors, you will need to provide the appropriate
SC-to-<connector type> adapter.
■ Ensure that you have calculated the attenuation requirements
appropriate to your cable plant when cabling DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS
modules.
