Safety Instructions
Before connecting the FRITZ!Box 6490 Cable, observe the fol-
lowing security instructions in order to protect yourself and
the FRITZ!Box from harm.
Because the FRITZ!Box has no On/Off switch, it must be
possible to disconnect the FRITZ!Box from the power
supply at any time.
Insert the power supply unit of the FRITZ!Box into an
electrical outlet that is easy to reach.
Overloaded outlets, extension cords and power strips
can lead to fires or electric shocks.
Avoid using socket strips and extension cords if at all
possible.
Do not connect multiple extension cords or socket
strips to each other.
Damage to electric wiring or gas or water pipes during
drilling can present a significant danger.
Before mounting the FRITZ!Box on the wall, make
sure that there are
no
electrical lines, gas or water
pipes located where you need to drill the holes. If
necessary, check the site with a pipe detector or con-
sult with qualified experts.
Heat accumulation can lead to overheating of the
FRITZ!Box and subsequently damage the FRITZ!Box.
Provide for sufficient air circulation around the
FRITZ!Box.
Make sure that the ventilation slits on the FRITZ!Box
housing are always unobstructed.
The FRITZ!Box should not be placed on a carpet or on
upholstered furniture.

Special Security Instructions for Your Cable Network
Connection
Outdated electrical and/or incorrect broadband cable in-
stallations can present a fire hazard by allowing ex-
tremely high equalizing current to flow through your de-
vice.
Make sure that the electrical installation complies
with the latest technical standards.
Inform yourself about the performance of your electri-
cal system, especially the power rating of power lines
and outlets.

Make sure that the earthing contacts of your power
outlets are connected via a protective ground con-
ductor that is earthed along with the cable network
connection via the equipotential bonding bar, in ac-
cordance with the valid safety standards.
When in doubt, ask the service technician performing
installation or a competent electrician.
Handling the FRITZ!Box
You can place the FRITZ!Box on a horizontal surface or
mount it on a wall. For a drilling template to mount the
FRITZ!Box on a wall, see
page 166
.
Place or hang the FRITZ!Box in a dry location that is free
of dust and protected from direct sunlight.
For ideal operating conditions, mount the FRITZ!Box on a
wall with the cables connected on the bottom.
When connecting the FRITZ!Box to your computer using a
network cable, keep in mind that the cable can be no
longer than 100 m.
If you would like to establish wireless connections be-
tween the FRITZ!Box and the computer, position the
FRITZ!Box at a central location.
Make sure to keep sufficient distance from potential
sources of interference like microwave devices or elec-
tric devices with large metal housings.
