Figure 20 Connecting the grounding cable to a grounding strip
(1) Hex nut
(3) Grounding post
NOTE:
HP recommends that you use the primary grounding point or auxiliary grounding point 1, because the
•
grounding cable and grounding screw provided with the switch are applicable only to these two
grounding points.
To use auxiliary grounding point 2, you must prepare a grounding cable yourself. The connection
•
method is the same as connecting to the other two grounding points.
Grounding a 5800/5820X switch except the 5800AF-48G/5820AF-24XG
All 5800 and 5820X switches except the 5800AF-48G and the 5820AF-24XG have a grounding point
(with a grounding sign) on their rear panels.
To connect the grounding cable:
1. Remove the grounding screw from the rear panel of the switch chassis.
2. Attach the grounding screw to the ring terminal of the grounding cable.
3. Use a screwdriver to fasten the grounding screw into the grounding screw hole.
