Installing the mounting brackets, chassis rails, and grounding
cable (for the S5830-52SC)
The S5830-52SC switch provides one front mounting position (near the network ports) and one rear
mounting position (near the power modules), and two grounding points (one primary grounding point
with a grounding sign, and one auxiliary grounding point). You use the primary grounding point in most
cases. If the primary grounding point fails or is not suitable for the installation site, use the auxiliary
grounding point.
