System Grounding and Surge Protection
28 GHz 100 Mbps Internet IFU Installation - R1.0 1-3
Fiber Optic Cable
For 100 Mbps Internet networks, the fiber optic cable (see Figure 1-1)
consists of eight multi-mode optical fibers. This cable connects the IFU to an
indoor fiber patch panel.
Breakout jackets provide strain relief.
System Grounding and Surge Protection
The IFU grounding system has two conceptually distinct, but electrically
interconnected functional subsystems, for connection to “earth ground.” The
two functional subsystems are:
Earth ground (complies with the National Electrical Code (NEC) for
equipment grounding systems).
Surge protection.
Earth Ground
The IFU has an external electrical interconnection point for connecting the
IFU ground subsystems to earth ground.
Surge Protection
The sole purpose of surge protection is to transport lightning-related currents
to the earth ground. During site installation, surge suppression devices are
installed in line with the power and alarm conductors to assist in protecting
equipment.
