Chapter 1
Safety requirements
The ARRIS Telephony Gateway complies with the applicable requirements for performance,
construcon, labeling, and informaon when used as outlined below:
CAUTION:
Potenal equipment damage.
Potenal loss of service.
Connecng the Telephony Gateway to exisng telephone wiring should only be
performed by a professional installer. Physical connecons to the previous telephone
provider must be removed and the wiring must be checked; there must not be any
voltages. Cancellaon of telephone service is not adequate. Failure to do so may
result in loss of service and/or permanent damage to the Telephony Gateway.
CAUTION:
This device is restricted to indoor use.
■The Telephony Gateway is designed to be connected directly to a telephone.
■Connecng the Telephony Gateway to the home’s exisng telephone wiring should only
be performed by a professional installer.
■Do not use product near water (i.e. wet basement, bathtub, sink or near a swimming
pool, etc.), to avoid risk of electrocuon.
■Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
■The product shall be cleaned using only a damp, lint-free, cloth. No solvents or cleaning
agents shall be used.
■Do not use spray cleaners or aerosols on the Telephony Gateway.
■Avoid using and/or connecng the equipment during an electrical storm, to avoid risk of
electrocuon.
■Do not locate the equipment within 6 feet (1.9 m) of a ame or ignion source (i.e. heat
registers, space heaters, replaces, etc.).
■Use only the external AC power adapter (if provided) and power cord included with the
equipment.
■Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should be easily accessible.
■The shield of the coaxial cable must be connected to earth (grounded) at the entrance to
the building in accordance with applicable naonal electrical installaon codes. In the
U.S., this is required by NFPA 70 (Naonal Electrical Code) Arcle 820. In the European
Union and in certain other countries, CATV installaon equipotenal bonding
requirements are specied in IEC 60728-11, Cable networks for television signals, sound
signals and interacve services, Part 11: Safety. This equipment is intended to be
installed in accordance with the requirements of IEC 60728-11 for safe operaon.
Touchstone TG6452 Telephony Gateway User Guide DRAFT Revision 2.3 5

■If the equipment is to be installed in an area serviced by an IT power line network, as is
found in many areas of Norway, special aenon should be given that the installaon is
in accordance with IEC 60728-11, in parcular Annex B and Figure B.4.
■In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situaons and areas prone to lightning
strikes, addional surge protecon may be required (i.e. PF11VNT3 from American
Power Conversion) on the AC, RF, Ethernet and Phone lines.
■When the Telephony Gateway is connected to a local computer through Ethernet cables,
the computer must be properly grounded to the building/residence AC ground network.
All plug-in cards within the computer must be properly installed and grounded to the
computer frame per the manufacturer’s specicaons.
■Ensure proper venlaon. Posion the Telephony Gateway so that air ows freely
around it and the venlaon holes on the unit are not blocked.
■Do not mount the Telephony Gateway on surfaces that are sensive to heat and/or
which may be damaged by the heat generated by the modem, its power supply, or other
accessories.
