NOTE: For AC-powered platforms, although the third conductor of the AC power cord provides a ground path, Dell EMC
recommends grounding your platform with a dedicated ground wire.
To attach a ground lug assembly to the switch, use the included two M3 ground lug bracket screws. The switch ships with the M3 ground
lug bracket screws attached.
CAUTION: Grounding conductors
must
be made of copper. Do not use aluminum conductors.
NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an anti-oxidant compound before crimping. Also, bring any unplated mating surfaces to a
clean nish and coat with an antioxidant before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from contamination.
NOTE: The rack installation ears are not suitable for grounding.
Before you install the switch into the dual-tray:
1 Cut the ground cable (not included) to the desired length. The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt
circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable.
2 Unscrew the two attached M3 screws and set aside.
3 Attach the ground lug and bracket to the switch using the M3 screws.
Order a UL-certied GND lug with bracket separately.

4 Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet.
Rack or cabinet hardware installation
You may either place the platform on a rack shelf or mount the platform directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310- E-compliant rack.
The platform includes two-post rail assemblies.
