EMC/ESD information
Required connections
The system was developed in compliance with the ETSI Mesh Ground requirements. This
means EMC compliance and personnel safety can be achieved only if the system is
connected to a System-Reference Potential Plane (SRPP) at many places as described in
ETS 300 253 (see the figure below).
All peripheral equipment and its protective earth/ground must also be connected to the
SRPP by one or more fixed wires.

The EMC/ESD boundary is defined at subrack level. The principle is based on the
"Faraday Cage" theory. If there are covers, then the covers must be closed.
There is an ESP bonding point on the subrack (see
