Recommended Standard Designations
The new designation of the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) supersedes the
Recommended Standard (RS) designations. References to the old designations may be
shown when depicting actual text (e.g., RS-232) displayed on the Front Panel menus, Web
Server pages, serial remote interface, Telnet Command Line Interface (CLI), or unit rear
panel. All other references in the manual refer to EIA designations.
CAUTION – You must carefully review the following information.
Safety and Compliance
Electrical Safety and Compliance
The unit complies with the EN 60950 Safety of Information Technology Equipment (Including
Electrical Business Machines) safety standard.
Grounding
CAUTION – If the unit is operated in a vehicle or movable installation, make sure
the unit is stable. Otherwise, EN 60950 safety is not guaranteed.
Sect. 3.3 CDM-425 Ground and Power connections
CAUTION – PROPER GROUNDING PROTECTION IS REQUIRED: The installation
instructions require that the integrity of the protective earth must be ensured
and that the equipment shall be connected to the protective earth connection at
all times.
The CDM-425 Advanced Satellite Modem is designed for connection to a power
system that has separate ground, line and neutral conductors. The equipment is
not designed for connection to a power system that has no direct connection to
ground. It is therefore imperative during installation, configuration, and
operation for you to ensure that the unit has been properly grounded using the
ground stud provided on the rear panel of the unit.
• In Finland: "Laite on liitettävä suojamaadoituskoskettimilla varustettuun
pistorasiaan."
• In Norway: “Apparatet må tilkoples jordet stikkontakt.”
• In Sweden: “Apparaten skall anslutas till jordat uttag.”

Electrical Installation
The unit is rated for a nominal operating range of 100-240 volts AC; for the appropriately
equipped DC option, nominal operating range is 43-60 volts DC. The unit has a maximum power
consumption of 300 watts.
The installation and connection to the line supply must be made in compliance to local or national
wiring codes and regulations.
The CDM-425 Advanced Satellite Modem is shipped with a line inlet cable suitable for use in the
country of operation. If it is necessary to replace this cable, ensure the replacement has an
equivalent specification.
Examples of acceptable ratings for the cable include HAR, BASEC and HOXXX-X.
Examples of acceptable connector ratings include VDE, NF-USE, UL, CSA, OVE, CEBEC,
NEMKO, DEMKO, BS1636A, BSI, SETI, IMQ, KEMA-KEUR and SEV.
Battery
WARNING! THE MODEM CONTAINS A LITHIUM BATTERY. DANGER OF EXPLOSION
EXISTS IF THE BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR
EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES IN
ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL REGULATIONS.
Fuses
CAUTION – FOR CONTINUED OPERATOR SAFETY, ALWAYS REPLACE THE FUSES WITH THE
CORRECT TYPE AND RATING.
The CDM-425 Advanced Satellite Modem is fitted with two fuses:
• For AC operation, the unit requires two common 4 Amp/250 volts 20mm x 5mm Slow-blow
fuses that are contained within a fuse holder that is press-fit into the body of the IEC power
inlet module (on the rear panel of the unit).
• For DC operation, the unit requires two different fuses that are contained within the individual
screw-in receptacles below the terminal block (on the rear panel of the unit).
These DC fuse requirements are as follows:
o Modem Operation – 3 Amp/250 volts 20mm x 5mm Slow-blow fuse.
o BUC Operation – 6.3 Amp/250 volts 20mm x 5mm Slow-blow fuse.

TO ENSURE THAT THE UNIT COMPLIES WITH THESE STANDARDS, OBEY
THESE INSTRUCTIONS:
• Use coaxial cable that is of good quality (e.g., RG58/U (50Ω) or RG59/U (75Ω)) for
connections to the IF Tx and Rx (transmit and receive) BNC female connectors.
• Use Type 'D' connectors that have back-shells with continuous metallic shielding.
Type ‘D’ cabling must have a continuous outer shield (either foil or braid, or both). The shield
must be bonded to the back-shell.
• Operate the unit with its cover on at all times.
