Installing the Router
on a Workbench
You can install any Router 3000 on a workbench.
To install the router on a workbench, take the following precautions:
■ Ensure that the workbench is smooth and stable.
■ Leave a heat-dissipation clearance of 10 m (4 in) around the router.
■ Do not put heavy objects on the router.
Connecting the
Protection Ground
Wire
The protection ground (PGND) point of the chassis is located on the left side of the
rear panel, near the power switch and is labeled with a grounding label, as shown
in
Figure 11. The grounding resistance should not be greater than 5 ohm.
Figure 11 Connecting the PGND
Connect the PGND wire before connecting other cables. Shorten the ground wire
as much as possible to avoid the router and the peer device being damaged during
lightning.
Connecting the Power
Cable
To connect the router to the power outlet and confirm that the PGND wire is
properly grounded, do the following:
1 Connect the output end of the power supply to the power socket on the rear
panel of the router.
2 Connect the input end of the power supply to the AC power outlet.
3 Turn on the power switch on the router.
4 Confirm that the router has power by checking whether the POWER LED is on.
