Installation Guide
QX-S6600 Series Ethernet Switches
 NOTE:
NEC recommends that you use the primary grounding point or auxiliary grounding point 1, because the

grounding cable and grounding screw provided with the switch are applicable only to these two grounding
points.
To use auxiliary grounding point 2 on QX-S6632QP, prepare a grounding cable yourself. The connection

method is the same as connecting to the other two grounding points.
