When there is no grounding bar in the installation environment of Ethernet switches, if a mud field is nearby
and grounding electrodes are permitted to bury, angle steel or steel tube not less than 0.5 m in length may be
used to directly drive into the ground. At this point, the yellow-green PE cables of Ethernet switches should be
connected to the angle steel (or steel pole) by welding, and the soldered joint should be treated with
preservatives.
