Cisco Nexus 9364C-H1 - Grounding the Chassis

Grounding the Chassis
The switch chassis is automatically grounded when you properly install the switch in a grounded rack with
metal-to-metal connections between the switch and rack.
An electrical conducting path shall exist between the product chassis and the metal surface of the enclosure
or rack in which it is mounted or to a grounding conductor. Electrical continuity shall be provided by using
thread-forming type mounting screws that remove any paint or non-conductive coatings and establish a
metal-to-metal contact. Any paint or other non-conductive coatings shall be removed on the surfaces between
the mounting hardware and the enclosure or rack. The surfaces shall be cleaned and an antioxidant applied
before installation.
