ANSI ONT safety guidelines
Alcatel-Lucent 7368 ISAM ONT xxxi
Edition 02
G-240W-A Product Guide
Cabling
The following are the guidelines regarding cables used for the ONT equipment:
Use only cables approved by the relevant national electrical code.
Use cables suitable for outdoor use for outdoor installation of ONTs.
The ONTs have been evaluated for use with external POTS wiring without
primary protection that may not exceed 140 ft (43 m) in reach. However, the
power cable must not exceed 100 ft (31 m).
Protective earth
Earthing and bonding of the ONTs must comply with the requirements of NEC
article 250 or local electrical codes.
ESD safety guidelines
The ONT equipment is sensitive to ESD. Operations personnel must observe the
following ESD instructions when they handle the ONT equipment.
During installation and maintenance, service personnel must wear wrist straps to
prevent damage caused by ESD.
Alcatel-Lucent recommends that you prepare the site before you install the ONT
equipment. In addition, you must control relative humidity, use static dissipating
material for furniture or flooring, and restrict the use of air conditioning.
Environmental requirements
See the ONT technical specification documentation for temperature ranges for
ONTs.
During operation in the supported temperature range, condensation inside the ONT
caused by humidity is not an issue. To avoid condensation caused by rapid changes
in temperature and humidity, Alcatel-Lucent recommends:
The door of the ONT not be opened until temperature inside and outside the
enclosure has stabilized.
If the door of the ONT must be opened after a rapid change in temperature or
humidity, use a dry cloth to wipe down the metal interior to prevent the risk of
condensation.
When high humidity is present, installation of a cover or tent over the ONT helps
prevent condensation when the door is opened.
Caution — This equipment is ESD sensitive. Proper ESD protections
should be used when entering the TELCO Access portion of the ONT.
