Safety Warnings

Lithium Battery Caution

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. A lithium battery on the RouteFinder PC board provides

backup power for the time-keeping capability. The battery has an estimated life expectancy of ten years. When it

starts to weaken, the date and time may be incorrect. If the battery fails, send the board back to Multi-Tech for

battery replacement.

Ethernet Ports Caution

The Ethernet ports are not designed to be connected to a Public Telecommunication Network.

Software Recovery CD Warning

Do not use the Software Recovery CD for any purpose except for re-installing software onto the RouteFinder

hard drive.

Telecom Warnings for Modem Operation

•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

•This product must be disconnected from the telephone network interface when servicing.

•This product is to be used with UL and cUL listed computers.

•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected

at the network interface.

•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

•Avoid using a telephone during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electrical shock from

lightning.

•Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

•To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord.

•Never install telephone jacks in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Safety Recommendations for Rack Installations

•Ensure proper installation of the RouteFinder in a closed or multi-unit enclosure by following the

recommended installation as defined by the enclosure manufacturer.

•IMPORTANT: Do not place the RouteFinder directly on top of other equipment or place other equipment

directly on top of the RouteFinder.

•If installing the RouteFinder in a closed or multi-unit enclosure, ensure adequate airflow within the rack

so that the maximum recommended ambient temperature is not exceeded.

•Ensure that the RouteFinder is properly connected to earth ground via a grounded power cord. If a

power strip is used, ensure that the power strip provides adequate grounding of the attached apparatus.

•Ensure that the main supply circuit is capable of handling the load of the RouteFinder. Refer to the

power label on the equipment for load requirements.

•Maximum ambient temperature for the RouteFinder is 50 degrees Celsius (120°F).

•This equipment should only be installed by properly qualified service personnel.

•Only connect like circuits. In other words, connect SELV (Secondary Extra Low Voltage) circuits to

SELV circuits and TN (Telecommunications Network) circuits to TN circuits.

Shutdown Caution

Never unplug the RouteFinder power until after you have performed the Shutdown process. If the RouteFinder

is not properly shut down before unplugging the Power, the next startup may take a little longer, or in the worst

case, data could be lost.

Typical Applications

Remote User VPN.The client-to-

LAN VPN application replaces

traditional dial-in remote access by

allowing a remote user to connect

to the corporate LAN through a

secure tunnel over the Internet.

The advantage is that a remote

user can make a local call to an

Internet Service Provider, without

sacrificing the company’s security,

as opposed to a long distance call

to the corporate remote access

server.

Branch Office VPN. The LAN-to-

LAN VPN application sends

network traffic over the branch

office Internet connection instead

of relying on dedicated leased line

connections. This can save

thousands of dollars in line costs

and reduce overall hardware and

management expenses.

Firewall Security. As businesses

shift from dial-up or leased line

connections to always-on

broadband Internet connections,

the network becomes more

vulnerable to Internet hackers.

The RouteFinder provides a full-

featured firewall based on

Stateful Packet Inspection

technology and NAT protocol to

provide security from intruders

attempting to access the office

LAN.
