NEBS Supplemental Unit Bonding and Grounding Guidelines
Although the router chassis requires a safety earth ground connection as part of the power cabling to
power modules, you must permanently connect the central office ground system or interior equipment
grounding system to the supplemental bonding and grounding connection on the side of the router
chassis to meet network equipment building system (NEBS) requirements as well as safety compliance
requirements. These grounding points are referred to as the NEBS bonding and grounding points.

These bonding and grounding connections satisfy the Telcordia NEBS requirements for supplemental
Note
bonding and grounding connections. If you are not installing the router in a NEBS environment, you can
choose to bypass these guidelines and rely on the safety earth ground connections to the AC or DC power
modules.
