and are designed to operate transparently to your network. This
section describes connection procedures for both models.
3.1 PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
Both Models 571 and 581 protect 4 pins on the modular RJ-45 Cat-
5 interface, and work in environments with data rates up to 100 Mbps.
The following descriptions will give you a general guideline for installing
the units in your Cat-5 environment.
3.1.1 POINT-OF-USE APPLICATION (MODEL 571)
The Model 571 is designed for installation on LAN equipment in a
typical office environment (see Figure 1, below). For best results the
Model 571 should be connected as close as possible to the
communication port of the device to be protected . Also, the flat
braided grounding wire on the Model 571 should be attached to the
grounded metal frame of the device being protected.
