Grounding the Access Point

The grounding must be completed before powering up the access point. The grounding wire should be #8 AWG.
1. Peel the cover of one end of the grounding wire and place the bare grounding wire into the included copper 

lug, and press firmly with the crimping pliers.

2. Fasten the copper lug to the grounding hole on the access point with the included M4 x6 screw. 

Service to all Aruba products should be performed by trained service personnel only.
