This switch is designed for indoor use only. If you want to connect it to a device
located outdoors, the outdoor device must be properly grounded and surge
protected, and you must install an Ethernet surge protector inline between the
switch and the outdoor device. Failure to do so can damage the switch.
Before connecting this switch to outdoor cables or devices, see
https://kb.netgear.com/000057103 for safety and warranty information.
