2-4 Grounding
Proper grounding of equipment and structures is essential to prevent electrical damage to the
MTI BR5811b 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.
