Proper handling, shipping, and storage precautions must be exercised.
During installation, read and observe all additional Cautions and Warnings shown in Device Setup Step A: Install SIM Card in RMC-7XX-G, Step B: Attach Chassis Ground, and Connecting Step B: Connect Battery Power (Optional).
Installation
CAUTION: For Westell’s Kentrox equipment to operate safely and correctly, there must be a
safety ground strap between the equipment ground bolts and the office ground. Installers should wear a grounding wrist strap throughout the installation process.
Environment
CAUTION: In the event that RMC-7XX-G has been subjected to adverse environmental
conditions, a service inspection of RMC-7XX-G should be made to ensure safe operation.
Restricted Access Locations
CAUTION: The RMC-7XX-G is for use in restricted access locations only.
FCC
The Federal Communications Commission has set limits for emitted radio interference, and RMC­7XX-G is constructed with this electromagnetic interference (EMI) limitation in mind. RMC-7XX-G is classified under FCC regulations as a Class A device, that is, a device for use in commercial environments and not in residential areas. This device has been tested and shown to comply with the following FCC rule: Part 15 Subpart J. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference to radio and TV reception, requiring the user to take whatever steps are necessary to correct the interference.

Information is available from the FCC describing possible corrective actions. To maintain low EMI levels, we suggest that you use only metal connectors and shielded cable grounded to the frame.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
Clock Battery
CAUTION: The Real Time Clock battery is intended to last for the life of the product, and should
not require replacement under normal operation. If for any reason the battery does require replacement, the unit should be returned for service at Westell. Contact Customer Assistance if this need arises.
Battery Charging
CAUTION: The RMC-7XX-G has a wide range input power input that can support + or – 20 to
60 VDC. When using the battery input, ensure that the battery configuration (usually 24 or 48 Volts) matches the input power and polarity provided the unit.
