2.6.3 Connecting Ground Cables
Grounding is a key step in device installation. The ground cable of a device must be correctly
connected to protect the device from lightning, electromagnetic interference, and electrostatic
charges. Outdoor APs support built-in surge protection on all interfaces, but the surge
protection works only when the outdoor APs are grounded.
Requirements for laying out ground cables
l
The ground cables must be connected to a group of ground bars.
