Installing a Port Lightning Arrester (Optional)
45 Ethernet interfaces need to be equipped with port lightning arresters.
No port lightning arrester is shipped with the router. You can purchase one if needed.
Before connecting an outdoor Ethernet cable to an Ethernet interface, you can install a port
lightning arrester to protect the router against lightning strokes.
The following port lightning arrester can be installed on the router. The specifications for t
lightning arrester are as follows:
single port, maximum discharge current (8/20μs waveform): 5 kA, output
voltage (10/700μs waveform): core
Multimeter
Diagonal pliers
Installation Procedure
Follow these steps to install a port lightning arrester:
faced adhesive tape to stick the port lightning arrester to the router. The port
should be as close to the grounding screw as possible.
Cut short the grounding cable of the port lightning arrester according to its distance to the
grounding screw. Then, fix the grounding cable onto the grounding screw of the router.
Use the multimeter to check the connection between the grounding cable of the port lightning
arrester and the grounding screw of the router.
