Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding wrist strap
•
Two SAE 10-32 screws 0.25–0.5 in. long, and flat washers (not provided)

Connect the Grounding Cable
You ground the router by connecting a grounding cable to earth ground and then attaching
it to the chassis grounding points. To ground the ACX500 indoor router:
1. Verify that a licensed electrician has attached the cable lug, which is provided with
the router, to the grounding cable.
2. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect
the strap to an approved site ESD grounding point. See the instructions for your site.
3. Ensure that all grounding surfaces are clean and brought to a bright finish before you
make grounding connections.
4. Connect the grounding cable to a proper earth ground.
5. Detach the ESD grounding strap from the site ESD grounding point.
6. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the
ESD points on the chassis.
7. Place the grounding cable lug over the grounding points on the front of the chassis
(see Figure 7 on page 11).
NOTE: The grounding point location on the ACX500 is the same for both
the AC and the DC models.
8. Secure the grounding cable lug with the washers and screws. The holes are sized for
SAE 10-32 screws.
9. Dress the grounding cable, and verify that it does not touch or block access to router
components, and that it does not drape where people could trip on it.
