Ground Bonding kit
Kit overview
The Ground Bonding kit reduces the electromagnetic emissions outside of the racks. These emissions are produced during
normal operation of the electronic components within the rack. Typically, rack-mounted equipment must meet class A
emissions levels, but you might want to reduce these levels even further. Use this kit to tie all the conductive structural
components together with conductive cables, and then attach the kit to a ground bonding point on the AC power distribution
device of the rack or the building ground.
