Figure2-15 Connecting the grounding cable to an S9825-64D switch
Connecting the grounding cable for the S9855-48CD8D/S9855-24B8D switch
IMPORTANT:
After the switch is mounted in the rack, the grounding points on the side panel will not be reachable.
Connect the grounding cable to a grounding point before installing the switch in the rack.
The S9855-48CD8D and S9855-24B8D switches each provide two grounding points: primary
grounding point (with a grounding sign) and auxiliary grounding point on the left side panel.
Select the grounding point based on the mounting bracket installation positions.
•
If you install the mounting brackets at the port side, connect the grounding cable to the
grounding point (auxiliary) at the port side.
•
If you install the mounting brackets at the power supply side, connect the grounding cable to the
grounding point (primary) at the power supply side.
The grounding cable connection procedure is similar for using the primary or auxiliary grounding
point. The primary grounding point is used as an example in the following figure:
1. Unpack the grounding cable and grounding screws.
2. Use the grounding screws to attach the two-hole grounding lug of the grounding cable to the
grounding holes at the grounding point. Then use a screwdriver to fasten the screws. See
Figure2-16.
