Connecting the PGND

WARNING!

The correct connection of the protection ground (PGND) cable on the router chassis is an essential
safeguard against lightning strokes and EMI. You need to correctly connect the PGND cable when
installing or using the router.

As shown in the following figure, the router provides a protection ground (PGND) screw at the top

right-rear of the chassis. You must securely connect it to the earth ground to safely channel faradic current

and leakage electricity to the ground and have the device less susceptible to electromagnetic

interference (EMI).This PGND wire can also protect the router against the lightning caused by the

connection with the external network lines, such as E1/T1 line, ISDN/PSTN line.
The grounding screw of MSR 50 Router, which is marked with grounding label, is located near the AC
power socket and its switch on the rear panel of the chassis, as shown in the following figure:
