OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.

Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 11-Outlet Computer Network Equipment Surge 
Protector. It protects your valuable computer network equipment from damage caused by 
sudden electrical spikes and surges. Your surge protector absorbs electrical spikes and 
power surges, and ensures steady performance of the connected devices by filtering 
electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.

Your surge protector complies with Part 68 
of FCC Rules. You must, upon request, 
provide the FCC registration number and the 
REN to your telephone company.

You must not connect your surge protector 
to:

• coin-operated systems

• party-line systems

• most electronic key telephone systems

We have designed your surge protector to 
conform to federal regulations, and you can 
connect it to most telephone lines. However, 
each surge protector that you connect to the 
telephone line draws power from the 
telephone line. We refer to this power draw 
as the device's ringer equivalence number, 
or REN.

If you use more than one phone or other 
device on the line, add up all of the RENs. If 
the total is more than five (three in rural 
areas), your telephones might not ring. If 
ringer operation is impaired, remove a 
device from the line.
