Figure2-11 Installing a lightning protector for a network port
(Optional) Installing a surge protected power strip
IMPORTANT:
Before installing a surge protected power strip, read the instructions in the document that comes
with the strip.
If you use an AC power line routed from outdoors for the device, use a surge protected power strip
for the device to protect against damages caused by lightning strikes. No surge protected power strip
is provided with the device. Purchase one yourself if required.
To use a surge protected power strip, first connect the AC power line routed from outdoors to the strip
and then connect the power cord from the device to the strip.
You can attach the surge protected power strip to the rack, workbench, or wall of the equipment
room.

Connecting the console cable and setting terminal

To configure and manage the device from the console port, you must run a terminal emulator
program, TeraTermPro or PuTTY, on your configuration terminal. For more information about the
terminal emulator programs, see the user guides for these programs.
