5.0 Grounding the Equipment Chassis

As a standard safety practice, the chassis of the SN10100A series gateway must be
properly grounded to protect against any contact with an electrical fault condition. It is
recommended that the chassis be connected to an earth ground. If the SN10100A
series gateway is mounted in an equipment rack, then the ground cable must be con-
nected from the ground lug of the SN10100A series gateway ground to the ground bar
of the equipment rack. If more than one SN10100A series gateway is installed in an
equipment rack, each SN10100A series gateway must be grounded directly to the
equipment rack ground bar.
