Grounding the Cabinet

Remove the cabinet right side panel to gain easy access to the ground lugs and system cabling. The cabinet

has two ground connections: ETH (Earth Ground) and PBXG (PBX Ground).

To remove the right side panel (Figure 1-8):

Remove the two screws that secure the right side panel to the cabinet.

Carefully slide the right side panel down until it swings clear of the cabinet.

The system provides two ground terminations. Each ground connects from the system to the ground termina-

tion using 12 AWG stranded copper wire.

Use the ETH (Earth Ground) for safety/system ground. You must connect ETH to a known earth ground.

Use the PBXG (PBX Ground) if you have trunks that require telco ground (such as ground start trunks).

This ground is not required for loop start trunks.
