7. Grounding Ethernet Switch
ATTENTION
- Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI).
- the ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding
surface prior to connecting devices.
- This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface, such as a metal panel.
- The shielding ground of the RJ45 ports are electrically connected
to the ground connection (screw).
