4.6.1 Grounding the Outdoor Access Points
1. Place the grounding rod so as to allow for the shortest possible path from the grounding
cable to the outdoor Access Points.
2. Drive the grounding rod into the ground at least eight inches from the ground surface.
3. Attach a grounding clamp to the grounding rod. You will use this clamp to attach grounding
wires for both the outdoor transceiver and indoor junction box, reference Figure 4-14.

Attention! The grounding wire should be long enough to reach from the mounting pole to
the grounding rod with 3 to 6 extra feet allowed for strain relief.
4. Connect a ground lug to one end of the grounding wire.
5. Remove one of the lower mounting screws of the mounting pole. Insert a screw through the
grounding lug terminal and re-install it to the mounting pole.
6. Attach the grounding wire to the clamp on the grounding rod, reference Figure 4-15. If
necessary, use wire staples to secure the grounding wire to the outside wall.
