Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Hardware Installation Guide
OL-25338-04
Chapter 2      Installing the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches
  Grounding the Switch
Note
In all situations, grounding practices must comply with local National Electric Code (NEC) 
requirements or local laws and regulations.
Note
Always ensure that all of the modules are completely installed and that the captive installation screws 
are fully tightened. In addition, ensure that all I/O cables and power cords are properly seated. These 
practices are normal installation practices and must be followed in all installations. 
Establishing the System Ground
This section describes how to connect a system ground to the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switch.
You must use the system ground on AC-powered systems if you are installing this equipment in a U.S. 
or European Central Office. 
The system ground provides additional grounding for EMI shielding requirements and grounding for the 
low-voltage supplies (DC-DC converters) on the modules and is intended to satisfy the Telcordia 
Technologies requirements for supplemental bonding and grounding connections. You must observe the 
following system grounding guidelines for your chassis: 
  •
You must install the system ground connection with any other rack or system power ground 
connections that you make. The system ground connection is required if this equipment is installed 
in a U.S. or European Central Office. 
  •
You must connect both the system ground connection and the power supply ground connection to 
an earth ground. The system ground connection is required if this equipment is installed in a U.S. 
or European Central Office. 
  •
You do not need to power down the chassis because the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switches are 
equipped with AC-input power supplies.
New commercial building is not 
subject to natural environmental 
noise or man-made industrial 
noise. This building contains a 
standard office environment.
Low
Electromagnetic noise problems are not 
anticipated, but installing a grounding 
system in a new building is often the least 
expensive route and the best way to plan for 
the future. Best grounding 
recommendations should be followed as 
closely as possible.
Existing commercial building is 
not subject to natural 
environmental noise or 
man-made industrial noise. This 
building contains a standard 
office environment. 
Low
Electromagnetic noise problems are not 
anticipated, but installing a grounding 
system is always recommended. Best 
grounding recommendations should be 
followed as much as possible.
