SAFETY WARNING
Potentially hazardous voltages exist on TELCO lines and associated equipment. Always observe
standard safety precautions during installation, operation, and maintenance of these products.
To avoid the possibility of electric shock, be sure to disconnect the power from the remote power
source before you perform any line connections or repairs. Always disconnect all the cables
connected to the system before disconnecting the grounding connection. After disconnecting the
power allow a few seconds for the internal capacitances to discharge before accessing the
boards.
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL WARNING
The installation procedures described in this manual must be performed by qualified personnel
aware of the hazards involved. The personnel involved in equipment installation must be trained
in the installation of telephone equipment and associated power systems; these personnel must
strictly observe all the safety precautions related to the installation of communication equipment.
Never install, remove, or adjust equipment and associated cables. Do not work on roofs, masts,
or towers during a lightning storm.
ATTENTION! STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
PROPER HANDLING AND GROUNDING WARNING
Components within the Trailblazer system are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To
avoid and prevent ESD damage and device failure maintain proper grounding during
configuration, repair or maintenance. This is achieved through the use of an antistatic wrist strap
securely connected to chassis ground. Do not use conductive tools for adjusting channel select
switch.
FCC, RF SAFETY HAZARD WARNING
Due to the energy radiated from the antenna, this product must never be mounted such that the
cabinet containing the antenna can be closer than 2 meters (6.7 feet) to any person. Refer to

UL INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for
wet locations.
Never touch telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been
disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Connection to the Telephone Network
The equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. You will find the label located on the
device. This label contains the FCC Registration Number and the Ringer Equivalence Number
(REN) for this equipment. You must, upon request, provide this information to your telephone
company. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the
telephone line and still have all of those devices ring with an incoming call signal. In most areas
the sum of the RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). Confirm
the number of devices possible on the telephone line (in REN) by contacting the local telephone
company who provides the service.
