Grounding the SRX100 Services Gateway

To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure
proper operation, the SRX100 Services Gateway must be adequately grounded before
power is connected.
Figure 1 illustrates how a grounding cable connects to the services gateway.

You ground the device by connecting a grounding cable to earth ground and then
attaching it to the chassis grounding points using one M3 screw.
CAUTION: Before device installation begins, a licensed electrician must attach a cable
lug to the grounding and power cables that you use. A cable with an incorrectly
attached lug can damage the device (for example, by causing a short circuit).
