The Acme Packet 4500 must be properly grounded to ensure efficient system
performance. Grounding your Net-Net chassis is an extremely important part of the
installation and maintenance procedures. Physical harm or problems with system
functionality may occur on Acme Packet 4500s that are not properly grounded. If
your Acme Packet 4500 chassis is not properly grounded, it can exhibit unpredictable
problems such as:
Garbled output on the console display
•
Sudden crashes
•
Physical damage to the Net-Net chassis and its hardware components
•
Failure to ground the chassis properly can result in permanent
damage to the Acme Packet 4500 and its components. Bodily
harm may also result under some circumstances.
The Acme Packet 4500 does not support mixing AC and DC
power supplies in the same chassis. A mixed power
configuration is prohibited.
Your equipment rack location must have a local earth ground. This ground can be
either an unpainted spot on the grounded equipment rack frame, or a grounded bus
bar in the equipment room.
The ground terminals are located between the two power supplies on the rear of the
chassis. The Acme Packet 4500 ships with 2 kep nuts screwed onto the ground
terminals. You use an 11/32" nut driver to remove and install these kep nuts.
This section shows you how to install the grounding cable on your Acme Packet
4500.
