H3C S7500 Series Ethernet Switches
If there is no grounding strip and no grounding body can be buried, the
AC-powered Ethernet switch can be grounded through the protection earth (PE)
wire of the AC power supply. In this case, make sure that the PE wire of the AC
power supply has been well grounded on the side of the power distribution room or
AC power transformer.
