To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure
proper operation, the router must be adequately grounded before power is connected.
To ground AC-powered and DC-powered routers, you must connect a grounding cable
to earth ground and then attach it to the chassis grounding points using the two screws
provided. Two threaded inserts (PEM nuts) are provided on the right of the lower rear of
the chassis for connecting the router to earth ground (see
Figure 46 on page
147).
