Grounding the Media Converter

The CPSMC0100-210 single-slot chassis comes equipped with grounding lugs located on the back panel. They require a grounding conductor wire terminated with a two-hole, compression-type, grounding connector. The grounding wire -- which must be a copper conductor -- is not included with the chassis and must be provided by the customer/installer.

The electrical conducting path from the single-slot chassis must:

•Flow via the grounding lugs to the common bonding network (CBN) for telecom installations, or to an alternative approved grounding system (if required) for non-telecom installations.

•Be of sufficiently low impedance to conduct fault currents likely to be imposed on the media converter, and

•Enable proper operation of any over-current protection devices.

The conductor must be fastened to the grounding lugs with the enclosed anti- rotation star-washers and lug-nut fasteners. The applied torque required to the connector lug-nut fasteners is specified by the connector’s manufacturer.

To properly ground the CPSMC0100-210 single-slot chassis:

1.Obtain one (1) grounding conductor (12 AWG copper wire gauge or larger) with a two-hole, compression-type, grounding connector.

2.Attach the grounding conductor to the converter by placing the two-hole connector onto the grounding lugs and fasten with the enclosed lock- washers / lug-nuts at the proper torque (per the manufacturer’s specification).
