Ground Bonding kit
About this device
The Ground Bonding kit reduces the electromagnetic emissions outside of the HP Advanced Series Racks and
Enterprise Series Racks. These emissions are produced during normal operation of the electronic components
within the rack. Typically, rack-mounted equipment must meet class A emissions levels, but you might want to
reduce these levels even further. Use this kit to tie all the conductive structural components together with
conductive cables, and then attach the kit to a ground bonding point on the AC power distribution device of
the rack or the building ground.
