2-4 Grounding
Proper grounding of equipment and structures is essential to prevent electrical
damage to the MTIBR5811(E1) system.
Grounding of all equipment at a radio site is required. Without proper grounding,
voltage potentials between components of the system can cause electrical
damage when interconnecting cables are installed.
It is recommended that the ODU be installed with lightning rod protection. Also,
to avoid surge current caused by lightning circulating to the equipment earth
system, connect the equipment earth system (true ground) to the lightning rod
ground.
Please connect the ground node to the existing ground.
Note: Ground wires and hardware are not provided in the installation kit.
2-5 ESD Protection
ESD (electrostatic discharge) can damage electronic components. Even if
components remain functional, ESD can cause latent damage that results in
premature failure. Personnel and equipment must be properly grounded.
Always wear proper ESD grounding straps during equipment installation,
maintenance and repairs. Connect your ESD grounding strap to the ESD
connector.
