Installing the Chassis Ground Connection
All Cisco 3700 series router chassis require a reliable earth ground connection. You must connect the
chassis to a reliable earth ground; the ground wire must be installed in accordance with local electrical
safety standards.
• For NEBS-compliant grounding, use size AWG 6 (13 mm
2
) wire and the ground lug provided in the
accessory kit.
