Note: When connecting the AC Power source, the cable has a third prong that is used for grounding the unit. It is not necessary to connect the Grounding lugs located on the rear of the unit to earth ground. Grounding the IMG 1010 through the AC plug is sufficient.

Other Considerations

Uninterruptible Power Supply Option

If your site has frequent power interruptions, consider using an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) for your IMG 1010. You can avoid downtime by running your system that receives its AC power from batteries during a power failure.

Surge Protection

It is advisable to install a surge protector between your call processing system and the power outlet. If a high voltage surge occurs on the power line, this device can protect your system by sending the overload to ground.
