required if Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) modules are installed or if this
equipment is installed in a US or European Central Office.
Two threaded M4 holes are provided on the chassis frame to attach the ground
cable. (See
Figure

If FXS modules are installed or if this equipment is installed in a US or
European Central Office, you must use the system (earth) ground on both AC-
