Connecting the grounding cable
CAUTION:
•
Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.
•
Before connecting the AP to a power injector, make sure the AP has been reliably grounded
using the grounding cable.
The AP is not provided with a grounding cable. Prepare one yourself.
To connect the grounding cable to the AP:
1.
Attach the ring terminal to the grounding cable.

(STP) cables.
