Grounding the router
CAUTION:
• Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.
When you install and use the router, first ground the router reliably.
• Ensure a minimum resistance of 5 ohms between the router and the ground.
The router provides only a ring terminal. No grounding cable is provided with the router. Purchase
a grounding cable yourself.
Attaching the grounding cable to the ring terminal
1. Cut the grounding cable to the desired length.
2. Use the wire-stripping pliers to peel 5 mm (0.20 in) of insulation sheath from one end of the
grounding cable.
3. Add a heat-shrink tubing on the cable.
4. Insert the bare metal part of the grounding cable into the ring terminal.
5. Use the needle-nose pliers to secure the metal part of the cable in the ring terminal.
6. Cover the joint with the heat-shrink tubing, and use a blow dryer to shrink the tubing around
the cable.
