Connecting cables
Connect the cables in the following order:
1.
If your SmartNode device is equipped with a surge protector go to section
“Installing a grounding wire on
the SmartNode device’s ground lug”
) to install the ground wire. Otherwise, go to step 2.
Note
SmartNode devices that include surge protection have
/SP
in their model
code. All SmartNode /SP models provide a secondary protection against
over-voltage and over-current conditions (surges) including lightning strikes
and power cross.
For phone lines that go across buildings (TNV-3), a SmartNode /SP device
(which includes K.21-compliant surge protection) is required.
For SmartNode models without surge protection, only TNV-2 circuits are
allowed to be connected inside buildings.
